Hi Railway Support,

My MySQL instance (Service ID: 10a76366-d7f2-4885-9ef8-efc493c30424/database?environmentId=d1a538eb-a6dd-4129-9e6f-30ff959029ff) is stuck in a "Starting" or "Transitioning" state and is currently unreachable.

This made my django application crash. Here are the logs for the datatabse:

Hello,

We had an incident earlier that caused deployments to go offline while the status in the UI didn't properly update. This has since been resolved, but in some cases, you may need to redeploy your services.

You can find the post-mortem for the incident here: https://blog.railway.com/p/incident-report-february-11-2026

Our deepest apologies for the inconveniences this has caused.
