Hi all,
I am new to strapi and taking a course in how to use it as part of a JAMstack. The course is outdated (was using Mongo) so I’m trying to set it up with PostgreSQL through ElephantSQL database hosting. I’ve got Strapi working fine with a local psql, but when I try and use the connection settings that I was given by elephantsql I get an error:
Here’s what I tried in database.js:
connection: {
host: env(‘DATABASEHOST’, ‘postgres://oqymwnyb:gcG1vLNPGMdVRCbSrr3EGIed3Kurk9q@fanny.db.elephantsql.com/my-database-name’),
port: env.int(‘DATABASE_PORT’, 5432),
database: env(‘DATABASE_NAME’, ‘my-database-name’),
user: env(‘DATABASE_USERNAME’, ‘my-username’),
password: env(‘DATABASE_PASSWORD’, ‘my-password’),
ssl: env.bool(‘DATABASE_SSL’, true),
},
but when I do ‘run start’ I get this error:
[2022-05-25 19:06:31.337] debug: 
Server wasn’t able to start properly.
[2022-05-25 19:06:31.344] error: getaddrinfo EAI_FAIL URL-elephantsql-provided
Error: getaddrinfo EAI_FAIL URL-elephantsql-provided
I’d appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks!
