@privsec That worked, thanks!

@girish I use DBeaver with an SSH tunnel. I just found an option that I forgot to toggle on -- "Show all databases".

Now it shows all the databases!

On a side note, I did first try to configure an SSH tunnel and a post-command to execute "/usr/local/bin/docker exec -ti postgresql bash" and that worked as well.

But, only one tunnel is needed to the cloudron server to login as root that allows access to all databases.

I'm good to go. Thanks for the help!

@murgero Thank you
Before seeing this, I decided to be a 'windows user' and reboot the cloudron server.
I guess same effect, but will definitely do your more limited kick next time.
And yes it is working again.
Many thanks

@girish thanks for the guidance, that's exactly what I was looking for

@girish No, I don't have a lot of experience with postgresql. The strategy you describe aligns with my understanding of mysql's philosophy, but postgresql seems to require admins be more explicit. E.g. granting permissions to an arbitrary quoted LIKE pattern is documented in mysql, but postgresql's GRANT docs don't mention anything of the like and look like they require the specific object to exist (by nature of being a valid identifier) before granting permissions. Though I could be mistaken.

@grienauer You can set this thread to "solved" yourself.

I finally managed to get to the bottom of this. There was a bug in the postgresql addon backup logic where connections were not closed properly. This resulted in periodic backups keeping lots of connections open. This is fixed in 6.3.

@amg-web I mean the recovery mode, which you can enable for the app in the "Repair" section on the app configure view in the Cloudron dashboard.

This should be fixed in the latest package.

@girish Dump now works fine. 😄 Thank's a lot!

@nebulon said in App Install & Uninstall fails with `Error : Inactive - Error getting IP of postgresql service`:

I doubt this is related to your subdomains. Can you verify that unbound on the Cloudron is running and maybe restart the postgres addon?

You are 100% right.
The postgres service was simply not running.

Silly me, could have checked that myself.

Thank you for sharing.

There's a lot to unpack there, especially the postgres stuff.
I can see how many users wouldn't know what to do there.

Can you expand on all those 'postgres' parts and what to look for?

The 'manual migration' may not be needed since the app will do that on restart exiting recovery mode.

@jensbee4 you have to wait for next cloudron release. The change is part of cloudron 5.6.2 (see the announcement category).

@girish don't worry I'll survive without this plugin 😉
thank you for your consideration

@girish Thanks! I was hoping to get an official feature going - but thanks, I'll check the link out!

I put a package at https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/php7.3-postgres-app/ . This is a PHP 7.3 app that has postgres.
