you should be able to increase the size of your mongodb database by going to the volume attached, then going to its settings, and then scrolling down to size, you should then see a

ok. how can you help me?
screen sharing?
After clearing your browser data for railway.app, do a hard refresh, maybe it's still cached

I open a new browser
incognito window
still the same
can you ples help? it is prety important
I'm in the meeting
Apologies, can't join any calls right now
I'm out of ideas
if you're 100% sure this project is hosted on your railway pro plan account
and you've cleared the browser data for railway's website, then i have no idea what the problem could be
bro
Someone more knowledgable than me might be able to help though
if all else fails then this thread can be escalated to the team by a conductor
so no worries
Regions are only available for Teams on the Pro plan.
but I'm on the teams plan
Regions are still a beta feature, you can get access to it by joining priority boarding, railway's beta program
to do this you can:
- go to your railway dashboard, then hit
ctrl + k ( or cmd + k on mac )
- scroll down and click on utilities
- then click on the join priority boarding buttonI'm not interested in Regions
oh
I'm just showing you that railway might still think I'm not on pro plan
Oh alright
can you plese get someone to help?
Only conductors can flag threads to team members and pinging conductors is against the server rules
we'll just have to wait unfortunately 
you're on pro plan though you can email the team directly at

^ keep in mind however, it is the weekend, companies don't really work on weekendsOMG
I make it to 50G now
Can I make it even larger?
According to the volume docs, you can reach out to the team if you need more space
You made it 50gb now, so you figured out the issue?
i have no idea
I transferred it to personal and then transferred to team again
it worked
Thanks for sharing your solution :)
Glad it worked out
what is the max size? bro
The max size is 50gb but, according to railway's documentation on volumes, you can reach out to railway if you need to increase it even beyond that point
I did
what is the max size after 50gb?
I'm not sure, they probably handle it on a case-by-case basis
50 gb per database
how much total?
<:mommy_confused:1023749002069540935> 50 gb
You can have 1 volume per service, so each service has a max size of 50 gb volume storage ( unless increased by the team )
50 gb per database, how many database total can i have?
Oh, my bad, misunderstood your question
I don't think there's a limit to that

Hey, coincidentally just responded to your email as well.
I see 2 Mongo DB instances, which one do you want the upgrade on?
@adeg ^ pinging for visibility
thanks. I think mongodb might be too slow for our operations... we might consider moving over to pg.
does your mongo db insance support transaction?
I have over 100,000 rows in 1 table and now creating a new row took me around 1 second...
The default instance isn't a replica set and iirc you need replica sets for transaction support.
yeah I know I need replica set for transaction. will replica set improve the write speed?
can I use replica set tho?
You should be able to configure it using our templates system but we don't yet have an official template with them.
I personally have never used MongoDB so I can't say.
We have another problem
logs are missing sometimes
what kind of logs?
those are my logs
each scanning log should have a finished scanning log
those what I just pasted
but sometimes it is not printing
make sure your logs are unbuffered
how do I make sure that?
that would be something you have to read about with the logger you are using
I'm using
console.log in JS
are you saying I'm not printing it
not you are not capturing it?
cuz both reason could be possible
I think it might be your log collector is not colloecting it...I still don't work for railway lol
