CapRover Deploy Error: Error: Expected DateTime to be a GraphQL nullable type

[HigorSilvaRosa]

Hello, everybody!

I'm triyng to deploy a PayLoadCMS application using CapRover. CapRover is a platform that to server Docker containers.

Locally my application works very well. I have tested locally using de dev server (npm run dev) and building first (npm run build and npm run serve). Both ways worked locally. Locally I'm using Node.js v18.12.1.

In the CapRover, I'm trying to use the PayloadCMS default Dockerfile:

// -------------------------------------

FROM node:18.8-alpine as base

FROM base as builder

WORKDIR /home/node/app
COPY package*.json ./

COPY . .
RUN npm install
RUN npm run build

FROM base as runtime

ENV NODE_ENV=production
ENV PAYLOAD_CONFIG_PATH=dist/payload.config.js

WORKDIR /home/node/app
COPY package*.json ./

RUN npm install --production
COPY --from=builder /home/node/app/dist ./dist
COPY --from=builder /home/node/app/build ./build

EXPOSE 3000

CMD ["node", "dist/server.js"]

// ------------------------------------------

But I get this error log:

I have no clue why this is happening. Thanks for any help.

I did the update from "payload": "^1.6.19" to payload": "^1.7.1 and worked very well!

Thank you!
