Anyone knows if prisma postgres is down lately ?
Connecting to our database worked for me all through yesterday, but today its been hell. Couldn't connect to the database to save my own life.

I'm sorry, but the knowledge sources do not contain any official or real-time information about a widespread outage or downtime of Prisma's Postgres service. However, there are multiple recent reports from users experiencing connection issues with Prisma and Postgres databases—especially when using Supabase or connection poolers like PgBouncer. These issues include errors like "Can't reach database server" and timeouts, sometimes after changing credentials or under high load. In many cases, the database itself is running and accessible via other tools, but Prisma fails to connect or times out. Solutions that have worked for some users include:
- Double-checking your connection string and credentials.
- Ensuring you are using the correct pooled and direct connection URLs for Prisma and migrations, especially with Supabase (example setup here).
- Adding or increasing timeout parameters in your connection string, e.g.,
connect_timeout=30&pool_timeout=30 (see this workaround).
- Making sure your database is not hitting connection limits, especially on free or low-tier plans (see this comment).
- Restarting your application or clearing any cached credentials if you recently changed your database password (see this discussion).
There is no confirmation of a global Prisma Postgres outage, but there are ongoing user reports of connectivity issues. If your database is accessible via other clients but not Prisma, try the above steps and monitor the Prisma GitHub issues for updates.

I would like to investigate
Me too. I cannot access my database at all since ~17 hours ago.
Hi, I have just resolved the issue on my thread by running

This is the error I'm getting (Attached_ - It seems that
prisma-client-py: command not found means the Prisma Python generator isn't properly installed. I don't quite know how to proceed as I expected everything to be installed for meThis is one of the most persistent and unusual Prisma errors I have seen:
I haven't used Prisma Postgres with the Python Client (Community maintained) so not entirely sure what could be the issue. The Prisma Python maintainer should be able to provide insights
