Hello everyone, I try to deploy a Laravel project in Digitalocean App platform but I have problems with database connections. My env variables are:
DB_HOST = ${db-cluster-name.DATABASE_URL}
DB_CONNECTION = mysql
DB_PORT = ${db-cluster-name.PORT}
DB_DATABASE = db_name
DB_USERNAME= db_username
DB_PASSWORD= db_password
When I try in DO console commands like:
php artisan migrate
I have the following errors:
In Connection.php line 671:
SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known (SQL: select * from information_schema.tables where t
able_schema = circle_in_family and table_name = migrations and table_type = 'BASE TABLE')
In Connector.php line 70:
SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known
In Connector.php line 70:
PDO::__construct(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known
Any ideas?

Let me know how it goes. Regards, Bobby
Thanks very much bobbyiliev! I hadn’t seen the video and it was very helpful to me. My fault was that I have DB_HOST and not DATABASE_URL.
