Environment variables not available in AWS ECS instance.

Thanks for the reply @brophdawg11 ! I am setting the env vars in the task definition like it shows in the first link.

The strangest thing to me is that the envars are available in ssh and in context. Almost like node is "waiting" for them.

I am not confident this is "Remix" problem either, but a node problem. Currently I am working on generating a .env file during the container build and referencing that, which seems to be working so far. I'll report back once I have a workaround.

How are you setting the environment variable? I'm not too familiar with AWS but I found https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/taskdef-envfiles.html and https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/use-environment-file.html on a quick search - are you doing either of those to set the value?
