FileNotFoundError: This app has encountered an error. The original error message is redacted to prevent data leaks. Full error details have been recorded in the logs (if you’re on Streamlit Cloud, click on ‘Manage app’ in the lower right of your app).

I get this error when my app is deployed on the community cloud. It works fine locally. Any solutions?

The error message should give more information, check the web console.

I suspect that either the clit-tool fc-list is not available or a font was not found.

Ya fc-list was not available because I did not have the fontconfig package. I just created a packages.txt file and added fontconfig to it. Solved the issue in no time! Thanks!
