Getting strapi working on digitalocean app plattform

Here are the changes to get it working:

  1. Delete the component database in app plattform and only use the previously created db
  2. Hard code the connection string to app plattform env (picture below)
  3. Set NODE_ENV to production (picture below)

  4. Set ssl in database.js like this.

ssl: { rejectUnauthorized: env.bool(“DATABASE_SSL_SELF”, false), // For self-signed certificates }
