My web cannot connect to the database on the same environment.
I create a project which contains web container and databse mongodb. When I deploy my project locally, it can connect to remote mongodb. However, my online website cannot connect to the mongodb on the same environment. I don't know why. Could anyone help me?

N/AThis may sound stupid to ask, but did you setup the environment variables on your service the same way you have them on local dev?
Of course, it worked well yesterday. @MantisInABox
can you show me a screenshot of your service variables
@Brody
can you connect to the database with something like dbgate?
@Brody My local web connects to the database on Railway. It works well.
the same database, and the same database url that the service uses?
okay this makes two reports of this issue, the team will look at it on monday
@Brody I check it again. The connection to the dabase may not be the main problem. The problem is that my web container contains the front side and the backend side. When I deploy it locally, it works well. However, when I deploy it on the Railway, the request from the front side to the backend side fails. Actually, It works well yesterday. Moreover, My friend in the U.S. can visit it. People in China cannot visit it.
this seems like something the team would need to look into imo
right, thanks for your reply. I would appreciate that the team can help me on Monday.
@Brody Can anyone help me?
its in the hands of the team now, nothing more i can do here, im just a community member
What error are you seeing for the failed connections?
can you share a project ID please?
This was caused by https://railway.instatus.com/clik6k1hk294312awn8v8rox7a1. It should be fixed now, try again?
@rc My friend outside China can visit the website. However, it cannot be connected in China. Is the project id the string in the project url? project id: b3c66cc3-91a2-4f35-bc3e-9c67478d9ab3.
that sounds like a separate issue
can they visit any
.up.railway.app domains inside China?I am not sure. Could you give me an url for trying?
