Description

I've had a Rocketchat that I've been using for a couple weeks

Now, when I'm on Heroku, it begins restoring things from cache, but it doesn't boot a server with a port that Heroku can bind to within 60s, and the app crashes.

Any good way around this on Heroku? Thanks

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified in the issue. Start by reproducing the Heroku deployment and observing cache restoration before the 60-second port-binding timeout; done means identifying a verified way for Rocket.Chat to bind its port within Heroku's limit.
