Hello,

I’m trying to deploy a Directus 9 site and I’m getting the error:

Looks like it’s trying to create a MySQL database even though “Setup Database” is set to false, but I didn’t ask it to create a database. I want to deploy my own version of Directus with my custom end-points, I just want the /uploads being retained with new deployments feature. Similar to how Strapi 4 is deployed.

EDIT:
I have to deploy with a Postgres database (which I have installed) then changed it all over to my current database and delete the Postgres database it created.

New deployments of Directus show a 404 when using a temp domain:

Hello @Tom,

We’ll look into it and get back to you.

One thing, you can rename a deployment to the same name as a current deployment breaking both. It doesn’t serve a warning. Luckily I had taken a backup just before of my /uploads folder.

Hello @Tom,

We’ve designed the Directus site setup to be a 1-click solution that’s why it requires the database options upfront. The solution here is to create a Directus site with the database options enabled and than update the configs from Webapp > Environment page, which I think you’ve already done. Let us know if there’s anything blocking you with this.

Meanwhile, I’ve created a ticket to support Directus site with the default Cleavr’s setup.

Hello Tom,

Do you’ve more information about this?

Only the fact that new deployments get a 404 on the domain, however, I’ve routed this to an actual domain now not a temp one. The other one being you can rename a site to an already existing site which will break both, definitely an edge use case but might be worth adding a warning.

Hello Tom,

We’ve released a new fix that allows creating a Directus site with default Cleavr’s landing page if you disable the Setup Database option while creating a new site.

I hope it helps creating a site next time.

Is it only an issue with freee Cleavr domain? If so I’ll see if I can reproduce it.

Sure, I’ve created a ticket for it.
