apify platform bug. Urgently needs to be fixed

At a glance

A community member reported an issue with running a Scrapy script on the Apify platform, which worked fine locally but failed on the platform. The community member had previously reported the issue but it seems the bug report channel was deleted. The community member was planning to deploy the Actor and monetize it, so the issue was urgent.

Another community member said they would push the issue to the team, but there was no update. After the community member asked again, the team checked the Actor and found the same error locally. They suggested the community member use the Scrapy template prepared by the team, which the community member tried and found worked fine.

There is no explicitly marked answer, but the community member was able to resolve the issue by using the team's Scrapy template.

Hello. I got an issue that I asked to fix a few weeks ago in bug report channel that seem to have been deleted. I tried to run a scrapy script from local using apify run and it worked fine. I pushed it and when I run it from the platform I get this error. It's kinda an "urgent" issue because I was planning to deploy my Actor and try to monetize it. Is it possible to fix this issue ? Thanks

A guy I forgot who said that he'll push this issue to the team but I got no update since
Hello , I have asked again the team to get more info on this issue. Once there is more information, I will update you.
Alright ty !
any update yet ?
Hello, we have checked the actor and tried to run it locally, but it ended with the same error as on the platform. It also seems, you didn't use the scrapy template prepared by our team. Can you please check it (https://github.com/apify/actor-templates/tree/master/templates/python-scrapm) and try it according to the template? It seems that this is not a problem on the platform.
Hello, I'm at 100% sure the template I saw was like the one in my actor. I tried the suggested template and it works fine. Ty !
