Upgrade to 2.6.x fails with refused connections

[MLNW]

I host Heimdall on a Kubernetes cluster. It is running in version 2.5.8 but when I upgrade to 2.6.0 or 2.6.1 the browser shows

In the container I see the same errors spammed quite frequently:

  SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused (Connection: mysql, SQL: select table_name as `name`, (data_length + index_length) as `size`, table_comment as `comment`, engine as `engine`, table_collation as `collation` from information_schema.tables where table_schema = 'forge' and table_type in ('BASE TABLE', 'SYSTEM VERSIONED') order by table_name)

I'm surprised to see mysql here. Did I miss an upgrade step?

Not seen that before, what do you have in your .env?

APP_URL=https://heimdall.my.domain
FORCE_HTTPS=true

Sorry for the long delay. These are the values in my .env. The FORCE_HTTPS one needs to be there otherwise we get errors in the browser regarding a mix of HTTP and HTTPS traffic. The instance sits behind a reverse proxy that handles SSL termination.

@MLNW did you ever find a fix for this, I have the same issue.

[MLNW]

No, I did not find a solution but I also haven't looked at it since my last comment.

I still have this issue and I may decide to just wipe it and start from scratch unfortunately.

The logs OP gives is that it's unable to connect to mysql, are yours the same?

Hello.
Same issue here, connection refused.

Hello. Same issue here, connection refused.

relatively easy workaround: add the 2.5.8 tag and export from the settings page. then start a new install and import everything. not sure what you lose but it helps.

2.6.0 updated the underlying Laravel version from 8 to 10, so it's possible old configuration files are interfering. Maybe try a new install and copy the database across (if using sqlite) or point to the old database.
