Zeabur Startup Order Manager FAQs

Name: Zeabur Startup Order Manager
Author: zeabur

Question 1

Why am I getting 'Connection refused' errors on Zeabur?

Accepted Answer

This usually happens when your application starts before its dependent database or Redis instance is fully ready to accept connections. Zeabur's default dependency setting only ensures the container has started, not that the service inside is ready.

Question 2

Do I need to install the Zeabur CLI locally?

Accepted Answer

The skill recommends using 'npx zeabur@latest' to ensure you are always using the most up-to-date version of the CLI without needing a permanent local installation.

Question 3

Does this work for all database types?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the health check and wait loop patterns are protocol-agnostic and work for PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, MongoDB, and any other network-based service.

Question 4

How does this skill fix startup timing issues?

Accepted Answer

It helps you implement TCP health checks in your Zeabur configuration, which forces the platform to wait until the dependency port is actively accepting connections before booting the dependent app.

Question 5

Can I fix startup order without changing my infrastructure template?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this skill provides 'wait loop' shell commands (using nc or similar tools) that you can prepend to your application's start command to delay execution manually.
