Cloud Run
Cloud Run deployment succeeded but logs show HTTP 500 errors
Deployment succeeds with HTTP 500 error codes in the logs.
Cloud Run successfully deployed the service, but the running container or entrypoint is still failing at runtime and returning HTTP 500 responses.
Observed message
Deployment succeeds with HTTP 500 error codes in the logs.
Why it happens
- The application is crashing or throwing runtime exceptions after deployment.
- The default entrypoint or buildpack behavior does not match the app's expected startup path.
- The service starts but cannot handle requests correctly because of configuration issues.
How to fix it
- Inspect application logs to identify the first runtime exception.
- Verify the container or buildpack entrypoint matches the app's server process.
- Test the service locally with the same runtime assumptions before redeploying.
