    Just to double check, be sure to have 'Default' in the login dropdown. I checked with and without Cloudron user management and things seem to work.

      Another thing: can you go to Services -> Postgresql -> Increase memory limit. And then re-install directus? Maybe the migration is not completing because Postgresql is restarting or something.

        @shrey Is this with or without Cloudron user management ? Do you see any error in the logs?

          Right, it's running out of memory and thus the migration is not completing. I think you will see some oom message in dmesg output. Can you check how much memory the server has in free -m output?

            I see directus has basically no specific memory limit set. Maybe we can bump this...

                @shrey sorry, you have to ssh into the server and check.

                    I will link the other thread here - https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/8697/unable-to-connect-to-a-digitalocean-managed-database/9 . Cloudron is not designed to use an external database and you will hit all sorts of random issues. Sorry about that, maybe we should make this clear somewhere.

                      The latest package has a higher default memory limit and is more reliable now during initial setup. So please try to install a fresh instance.
