I saw in this thread (https://discord.com/channels/713503345364697088/1240272034777399374/1240272034777399374) from 20 days ago that PowerBI wont connect because of the SSL cert. I've got a similar use case of a tool that requires SSL certs to be signed.
Is this a deal breaker for Railway's Postgres?
Are there other options besides these:
1) Roll my own postgres image and get my own cert from a root ca
2) Switch database hosting to another cloud provider that can do ssh tunnels or ssl certs

it looks like that error states the cert is outdated?
try switching the image tag to 16 and set a REGENERATE_CERTS variable to true
qq -- we're on Vpg15 ts2.12. Will the same variable work there to regenerate the certs or is it only 16?

at this moment Melissa has only implemented it for railways postgres 16 image with the self signed certs, are you using a railway image for postgres?

thanks, at this time this is the only image that supports regenerating the certs -

you are using a timescale-postgis image, it does not support regenerating the self signed cert
oh, I set it up a long time ago from some demo. We aren't using the timescale features.

then you could deploy a new postgres database and copy over the data?
I saw there's no S/FTP support and that you have to mount a container to access the volume.
There is no file browser, or direct file download. To access your files, you must do so via the attached service's mount point

I'm not certain how to migrate the data.

yeah anything that can dump and restore, like pgdump and pgrestore
