Zeabur Startup Order Issues

Always use npx zeabur@latest to invoke Zeabur CLI. Never use zeabur directly or any other installation method. If npx is not available, install Node.js first.

Symptom

Connection refused :5432
connection to server at "X" failed
OperationalError: connection failed

Cause

Service starts before dependency (DB/Redis) is ready. dependencies only ensures container start order, NOT that the service is accepting connections.

Fix (Recommended): healthCheck on dependency services

Add healthCheck to database/Redis services so Zeabur waits until the port is accepting connections before starting dependent services — no need to modify the app's command.
