Rails 7.2 precompile assets failing

My rails 7.1.x app deploys just fine. But when I want to do the update to 7.2.x it always fails on the RUN SECRET_KEY_BASE_DUMMY=1 ./bin/rails assets:precompile step with the following error.

 => ERROR [build 11/11] RUN SECRET_KEY_BASE_DUMMY=1 ./bin/rails assets:precompile                                                                                                                    2.2s

Has anyone seen this before? Any idea as to why this is happening?

Looking at the code:

It appears that DATABASE_URL is set, but doesn’t have a scheme?

`` `
irb(main):001> URI.parse(‘’).scheme
=> nil


What does your fly.toml look like?

Hi, this is my fly.toml file. I’ve just redacted the app name.
