Railway blocks deploys for 16+ hours, forcing theo to take three services offline
theo · x · 2026-10-22
Developer theo reports he has been unable to update deployments on Railway for 16 hours. His services Lakebed, Postplan, and Shoo are down indefinitely because he can't redeploy them with rolled keys.
He acknowledges incidents happen but calls the decision to block deploys — supposedly to enable downtime-free key rotation — unacceptable, saying he's disappointed in Railway. The post sparked discussion about PaaS deploy policies and key-rotation workflows.
