I have a relatively large shiny app that I have at one point successfully deployed to shinyapps.io - however, when I try to update it as follows:
rsconnect::deployApp("/Users/anecloete/Desktop/2023/BMP_Dashboard",forceUpdate = T)
It gives the following error:
the application failed to start. exit status 1
when the browser opens. In the console it shows this:
Preparing to deploy application...DONE
Uploading bundle for application: 9323766...DONE

The app logs look like this:
