Hello,
For some reason, my postgres database was wiped? It was good yesterday, and it's not there today. What happened?

I tried restoring some backups but it is still broken.

Hi there, I’m seeing the volume attached has a flat usage of 1GB so presumably the data should still be there. Let’s try to find it for ya!
Could you please access and check the data within that volume? Possibly misconfigured on how it may be attached to the service

Hello, unfortunately this happened again. I suspect potential foul play?
When I mount the postgres volume it should be in /data right?

Postgres expects the volume to be mounted to /var/lib/postgresql/data.
If it is mounted to anything else, data will not persist.

So when I go to mount a drive that's what I should put in there?

OK I restored the site.
Is that why the site would randomly loose it's data? Maybe the postgres database had to redeploy or something and because I wasn't using the right mount directory it would basically destroy the database?
Now that I'm using the right mount point maybe that should solve the issue and hopefully my data won't disappear again?
