Storage limit issue on Hobby plan: Volume stuck at 500MB despite 5GB limit

Hello Railway Team,

I am currently on the Hobby Plan, which should include up to 5GB of storage. However, my Postgres volume is stuck at 100% capacity (500MB limit) and I cannot find an option in the Settings to increase it manually.

This has caused my n8n instance to crash with a "No space left on device" error during migrations.

Could you please help me increase the volume size for my postgres-volume to 2GB or 5GB so I can resume my work? I am happy to pay for the additional usage as per the Hobby plan terms, but I don't need the Pro plan yet.

Service: Postgres Environment: production Error: could not extend file: No space left on device

Thank you!

Hobby plan volumes support up to 5GB and can be resized by clicking on the volume in your project canvas, then using the "Live Resize" button in the volume settings. Since your volume is at 100% capacity, the resize will be performed offline with a brief restart to run data integrity checks. More details are in our volumes documentation.

I have the same issue. But mongodb, I updated the size, restarted etc.. but crashes after a moment or two. Would just start over but would like to recover the contents of the db if possible.

If your MongoDB volume is still crashing after resizing and restarting, the filesystem may not have extended properly to use the new space. Please open a separate thread with your project link so we can investigate your specific service.

For recovering your data, check your MongoDB service's Backups tab to see if any manual or scheduled backups exist that you can restore from. More details on restoring backups are in our backups documentation.

If you have a specific service you would like us to look at, please send a link to it. .
