For over an hour now, my PostgreSQL database has been stuck on:
Database Connection
Attempting to connect to the database…

Hey there!
We had an incident related to this that should be recovered. The fix is to click the 3 dots and hit "restart" on the latest green deploy. Went ahead and did that things look good now. Can you take a look at let me know how it looks?

Have you since restarted the service trying to connect to the database? I just connected and it shows healthy. Where are you seeing this?
