Question: Deployment Error using Google App Engine: Server Error The server encountered an error and could not complete your request. #349

What I am trying to do

First, I attempted to deploy the application by using the "Deploy to Heroku" button; nevertheless, it resulted in an issue regarding "npm ci fails," for which I was unable to find a way around (solution, considering I am not a developer and have limited technical knowledge). Thereafter, I attempted to deploy it by using Google App Engine, and I altered the package.json and app.yaml to change the node.js versions up to 16.0, and then I deployed the app. Everything went great, app was deployed successfully, the link was produced, and when I visited it, it took fifteen seconds to load and delivered a error saying: "Error: Server Error The server encountered an error and could not complete your request. Please try again in 30 seconds." Any idea what went wrong?

Hi @nishitkadakia10, sorry you had issues deploying to heroku, we will have to look into that.

There are a few things that could be causing that error. Are you able to provide any logs from your app?
