Hi,

After the last upgrade, our backups are failing with the following log:

[2018-04-03 06:56:57] Notifying 'bellenot' of the end of the 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.

Cheers, Bertrand.
