homer-app fails to start (code=exited, status=2)

[daydone]

OS version: CentOS 7 heplify-server version: 1.59.5 homer-app version: 1.4.37 postgresql-12.service is running and listening on the correct ports, db is localhost. heplify-server.service is running with no errors. I have checked that I can access the DB with the homer_user login and password. stated in /etc/heplify-server.toml I have validated that /var/lib/pgsql/12/data/pg_hba.conf has the correct md5 configuration from the install script. When I check journalctl -xe | grep homer-app I get the bekow output: Jan 17 17:26:45 <hostname> homer-app[25618]: panic: failed to connect database Jan 17 17:26:45 <hostname> homer-app[25618]: goroutine 1 [running]: Jan 17 17:26:45 <hostname>homer-app[25618]: main.getConfigDBSession(0xcc0800) Jan 17 17:26:45 <hostname> homer-app[25618]: /app/main.go:1187 +0xa65 Jan 17 17:26:45 <hostname> homer-app[25618]: main.main() Jan 17 17:26:45 <hostname> homer-app[25618]: /app/main.go:236 +0xeb Jan 17 17:26:45 <hostname>systemd[1]: homer-app.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=2/INVALIDARGUMENT

In tail /usr/local/homer/log/homer-app.log I get the following error repeated: {"level":"error","msg":"pq: password authentication failed for user \"homer_user\"","time":"2024-01-17T17:28:48Z"}

This installation has been working for over a year, no one has logged in or updated anything it just crashed 2 days ago and I am trying to recover the application. I have tried: -Rebooting server -resetting homer_user password for postgresql-12 -using systemctl to restart/reload postgresql-12 and heplify-server/homer-app

I am not sure what else to try as someone else installed this service originally 2 years ago. Any direction would be greatly appreciated!

Is there anyway this can get looked at?

You could star the repository to get some priority. Most likely you have the wrong db authentication details somewhere, doublecheck the homer-app settings and it should start working.

{"level":"error","msg":"pq: password authentication failed for user \"homer_user\"","time":"2024-01-17T17:28:48Z"}

@lmangani thank you for the response, I appreciate it. I have starred the repository, I have, checked that the /etc/heplify-server.toml is correctly configured for the database config. Is there some other conf file that is separate for homer-app? I see /usr/local/homer/etc/webapp_config.json but these are supposed to remain as values correct?
