amouraos-postgis.internal nxdomain DNS error blocking production app

Subject: amouraos-postgis.internal nxdomain DNS error blocking production app

My app “amouraos” cannot resolve “amouraos-postgis.internal” via DNS on the private network. Both apps are in region iad, same organization.

Error from logs: tcp connect (amouraos-postgis.internal:5432): non-existing domain :nxdomain

App details:

  • Main app: amouraos

  • DB app: amouraos-postgis

  • DB machine: d8de560a2d1308

  • Region: iad

  • DB machine is running and passing 1/1 health checks

  • pubsub is ok, only db is failing

This was working on March 24 2026 and stopped working recently. I need the two apps to communicate on the Fly private .internal network. Please advise.

It looks like your app is trying to resolve the domain for IPv4. Please note that Fly’s internal network is IPv6-only, so you will need to enable IPv6 support in order for this to work. For example for Phoenix Liveview apps I believe there is an inet6 option to be enabled.

Thanks :folded_hands:t5: so much will try and advise
