backup... The weird part of the log is this line: [2018-04-03 06:56:57] TCP/IP connections on port 5432?, since in our app.yml the port is: DISCOURSE_DB_PORT: 6602 Any advice is very welcome! Cheers, Bertrand.

You’ll need to add DISCOURSE_DB_BACKUP_PORT: 6602 to your config fire.

Thanks for the quick help! It worked! Cheers, Bertrand.
