I'm having a recurring issue with my project "rare-art" (Hobby plan), specifically with the Postgres service connected to my n8n instance.

Issue:

Intermittently, the n8n service stops responding and shows this error:

{"code":503,"message":"Database is not ready!"}

Checking the n8n Deploy Logs, I see repeated messages like:

"Timed out after 30000ms waiting for database connection recovery"

"Failed to hard-delete executions"

This suggests the Postgres service loses connection and doesn't recover on its own. The only fix that has worked so far is manually restarting/redeploying the Postgres service.

Frequency:

This has happened at least 3-4 times over the past two weeks (around June 30, July 2, and July 11, 2026), without me making significant configuration changes at those times.

Additional context:

• Reported usage in the "Usage" panel is low (under $1 USD accumulated this month), so it doesn't seem to be a resource limit issue.
• The project only runs a simple n8n workflow, scheduled to run once a day.
• Using the template: ghcr.io/railwayapp-templates/postgres-ssl:latest
• Region: US West

Could you help me investigate the root cause of these Postgres disconnections? I'd like to understand if it's a configuration issue on my end, a template issue, or related to Railway's infrastructure in that region.

Thanks in advance,
