Question
App Platform, after changing the app spec and changing it back 504 gateway error on page.

Asked by David Macias
I tested changing the app spec to Ubuntu 22 then removed that change and since then my app gets a 504 timeout error. Nothing else has changed and as far as I can tell everything was put back to the way it was. Deployment goes live and is “successful”. I can’t reach the console either nor the app health check works. Anyone run into something similar?

So there was an error that for some reason started happening. In the build logs I found this:
Failed to find attribute ‘app’ in ‘app’.
After some research it appears to be related to how my Flask app is layed out. root/ -app/ –init.py myapp.py
Changing the app spec from: run_command: gunicorn --worker-tmp-dir /dev/shm --config gunicorn_config.py app:app
To: run_command: gunicorn --worker-tmp-dir /dev/shm --config gunicorn_config.py myapp:app
Fixed my issue. I hope this helps others.
