Hello Railway Support,
We are currently facing a critical issue with our PostgreSQL deployment on Railway.
After every deployment attempt, the Postgres container starts but remains stuck with continuous log messages like:
LOG: invalid length of startup packet
This repeats endlessly every few seconds.
Before that, the logs also show:
database system was not properly shut down; automatic recovery in progress
invalid record length at ...
redo starts at ...
Finally, the deployment fails during the healthcheck stage and the container stops.
Tried setting custom startup command:
/bin/sh -c "unset PGPORT; docker-entrypoint.sh postgres --port=5432"
Restored from backup
Redeployed the service multiple times
Checked network configs (we're using Railway Private Networking)
