I am trying to implement Stripe to my deployed Rails application. I use config/credentials.yml.enc to store the public and secret keys which works in the development environment. However, when I try to deploy the app to fly.io production the credentials file seems to be empty as it no longer provides access to my secret keys and throws this error:
> => ERROR [build 6/6] RUN SECRET_KEY_BASE_DUMMY=1 ./bin/rails assets:precompile 1.0s

I assume it may have something to do with the secrets that I can edit for my virtual machine on the fly.io dashboard (i.e., maybe the master key needs to be added), but I’m lost as to what to do.
If anyone has any idea what could be causing this error that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
