Dear Railway Support,

TypeScript/Node.js backend service can only reach mysql service through external address. The internal address MYSQLHOST: mysql.railway.internal MYSQLPORT: 3306 doesn't work.

What is the problem? How can I fix that and how can I use the internal address?

Best regards, J. D.

There is no database in the project you linked, I assume that means you have the database in a different project.

The service and the database must be within the same project so they can communicate privately.

Thanks for the help. I created the MySQL service within the same project where the backend is. Now the internal address is working.
