Feels like your MySQL service isn’t fully stable right now. When it runs into memory issues, Railway can restart or throttle it, and that’s usually when the 'connect' options disappear
Do these--
Restart the service
Check logs for restarts/OOM errors
Reduce connections or heavy queries
if it keeps happening, it’s probably just running out of memory for your current plan or handling more load than it can manage

Railway has a 'metrics' tab on most services, you can open the memory metrics and find out when exactly it spikes/runs out of memory and see the logs around that time. Should help you figure out what's going on (feel free to ask for more help)

everything i find is looking fine.. maybe the innodb_buffer_pool or something simple i am sure.. but how do i find the connect string that used to be there when the logs error is blocking the view to it?

Hello raychambers,
your connect tab is gone because mysql is crashing, railway hides it when the service is down. go to the variables tab instead, your connection string is always there (look for MYSQL_URL or MYSQLHOST)
and to fix the oom add MYSQL_INNODB_BUFFER_POOL_SIZE=128M in the variables tab and redeploy, connect tab will come back once its stable
Hope this help you :)
