# Reproducer for coolify#8953
Minimal Docker Compose app that uses `${WEB_PORT}` variable interpolation to
reproduce the `.env not found` error when **Preserve Repository** is enabled
with a custom start command.
## Steps to reproduce
1. In Coolify, create a **Docker Compose** application pointing to this
repository subdirectory (`docker-compose-preserve-repo-env`).
2. Add an environment variable: `WEB_PORT=9090`.
3. In **Advanced** settings, enable **Preserve Repository**.
4. Set the custom start command to:
```
docker compose -f docker-compose.yaml -f docker-compose.prod.yaml up -d
```
5. Deploy.
### Expected (after fix)
Deployment succeeds. `--project-directory` in the `up -d` command points to
`/data/coolify/applications/{uuid}` (host path where `.env` exists).
### Actual (before fix)
Deployment fails with:
```
env file /artifacts/{deployment_uuid}/.env not found
```
Because `--project-directory` was set to `/artifacts/{deployment_uuid}` (helper
container path), and Docker Compose resolves `env_file` directives relative to
that directory.
