If you’re looking to recover your old database, there are steps you can follow, especially if you’re using AWS Lightsail. Sometimes, AWS keeps snapshots of your databases even after the service has been suspended. You can contact AWS Support and ask them to restore a snapshot taken before the suspension. Once that snapshot is restored, you can create a new database from it and regain access to your data.
For those who have encountered issues connecting to a newly created database, the common problem is often related to connection errors, like error P1001: Can’t reach the database server. This usually indicates one of a few things:
- The database server isn’t running.
- The connection details (host, port, username, or password) are incorrect.
- There’s a network or firewall setting blocking access.
To fix this, start by making sure the new database has fully set up and is running properly. Double-check the connection details to ensure they match the database setup. Additionally, verify that your firewall or security groups allow incoming traffic from your developer’s IP address. If you’re using Prisma, after making these checks, run prisma generate and prisma db push to refresh your setup and confirm that you can connect successfully. Following these steps should help you restore your database access smoothly.
