Followed the documentation for deploying on Heroku and added a middleware appname.herokuapp.com still takes forever to start.

i followed this issue 8375 and the docs.

my middleware.js
module.exports = {
settings: {
gzip: {
enabled: true,
options: {
br: false
}
}
},
};
/config/env/production/database.js
const parse = require(‘pg-connection-string’).parse;
const config = parse(process.env.DATABASE_URL);

module.exports = ({ env }) => ({
defaultConnection: ‘default’,
connections: {
default: {
connector: ‘bookshelf’,
settings: {
client: ‘postgres’,
host: config.host,
port: config.port,
database: config.database,
username: config.user,
password: config.password,
ssl: {
rejectUnauthorized: false,
},
},
options: {
ssl: true,
},
},
},
});
/config/env/production/server.js
module.exports = ({ env }) => ({
url: env(‘HEROKU_URL’),
});

The /admin has not openend even after 10mins on heroku.

Could not find a way around the above so i followed Alex, i left the /config/middleware.js as is

module.exports = {
    settings: {
      gzip: {
        enabled: true,
        options: {
          br: false
        }
      }
    },
  };
