Hello, I am trying to deploy my Python/Flask app using digitalocen’s app platform. This is my first time
I am getting below error with python version - 3.10.4
[2022-05-02 04:33:16] Failed to build backports.zoneinfo
[2022-05-02 04:33:16] ERROR: Could not build wheels for backports.zoneinfo, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects
[2022-05-02 04:33:16] ERROR: failed to build: exit status 1
Try one - As per below link, I tried to setup ryntime.txt with python-3.8.10
error - i got from digitalocean app platform - deployment
Requested runtime (��python-3.8.10) is not available for this stack (heroku-18).
Can someone suggest the resolution for this error please?

You can type !ref in this text area to quickly search our full set of tutorials, documentation & marketplace offerings and insert the link!
For now the issue has been resolved by removing backports.zoneinfo from requirement.txt. App seems to work fine after removing this library :)
Not an intelligent solution, but it works and take me to the next roadblock
I was facing the same error while creating my container. I solved the error by using the exact version of my Python venv i.e. 3.8.9
Earlier for the image, I was using 3.8-alpine for a lighter version of the image. But, it wasn’t working out for me and got the same error as yours.
Hope this helps! Thanks.
