Cannot restore paused project backup to new project

Hi
,
I
’m trying to restore a Supabase project that has been paused for over 90 days
.
Dashboard restore is disabled
, so I downloaded the database backup and created a new project
.
Local restore via psql always fails with
:
FATAL
: password authentication failed for user
"postgres
"
I reset the database password multiple times and used the pooler connection string exactly as shown in the dashboard
.
Has anyone successfully restored a
>90 day paused project backup recently
?
Is there a workaround when pooler authentication fails
?
