I was finally able to reproduce the issue we've been seeing in our GitHub Actions Cypress test failures. That workflow starts up
client
andserver
via Docker Compose.I had to delete all my containers and images to finally see the issue:
I guess somewhere in some cached layer of a Docker image, there must've been something that made my
server
able to find the Flask app, and only by deleting everything was I able to get my Docker Composeserver
to break.The reason that server was not starting up is because
FLASK_APP
needs to be toeligibility_server.app:app
to match the change in cal-itp/eligibility-server@60c8eb2#diff-dd2c0eb6ea5cfc6c4bd4eac30934e2d5746747af48fef6da689e85b752f39557R16.But actually, Benefits doesn't even need to set this environment variable since eligibility-server's Dockerfile already sets it.
