Postgres volume region migration error

Hello! In project 36bb0b84-a28c-439f-ab6a-9157df9fb44a, I added a Postgres database. It auto-added to the US West, and I initiated a move to the EU region. After a few seconds, the migration failed and prompted me to contact support. Volume ID: 74e3900a-2aed-41c0-8791-1685b740f31f

Getting same issue. Getting following error:
Volume migration failed
Your volume pgdata has failed to migrate to theUS West region.
Volume migration failed
Your volume pgdata has failed to migrate to theUS West region.
Can't init DB in Europe from the start which would be ideal.

I agree with init'ing in a specific region from the get-go. I also raised a feature request for this: https://community.railway.app/discuss/thread/default-region-for-project-or-ask-region-before-deploy-a011540f

Should atleast be exposed via cli

choosing a region before deployment is on the roadmap, don't know if this information was put publicly anywhere, but I was told it would be a feature at some point directly by a team member. there are some work arounds. create an empty service, setup all the variables, start commands, anything you'd need to run the app, set the region and then attach your github repo, first deployment will now be in the region of choice. but for templates there's no way to choose a region beforehand yet
