I am trying to use a managed PostgreSQL database at DigitalOcean for my instance of NodeBB. I have created a config.json file that looks like this:

{
	"url": "http://nodebb.local",
	"secret": "xxxx",
	"database": "postgres",
	"port": [4567],
	"postgres": {
		"host": "xxxxx.b.db.ondigitalocean.com",
		"port": 25061,
		"username": "nodebb",
        "password": "xxxxxxx",
		"database": "nodebb-pool",
        "ssl": true
	}
}

and am trying to build an image using this Dockerfile:

FROM nodebb/docker:latest

WORKDIR /usr/src/app
COPY config.json config.json

ENV NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0

RUN node ./nodebb build

VOLUME /usr/src/app/public/uploads

CMD exec node ./nodebb start

on the node ./nodebb build step I get the following error(s):

The command '/bin/sh -c node ./nodebb build' returned a non-zero code: 1

If I change the config.json to point to my local PostgreSQL instance, instead, it works fine.

As far as I can tell, all the database objects are being correctly created both locally and at DigitalOcean. There are 6 tables created, 1 view, 1 routine, and 1 object type.

Neither my local version of the database, nor the DB at DigitalOcean have a prepared statement called getObjectFields.

Can anyone suggest something else to try? Thanks!
