Description

const sql = postgres() // credentials loaded from env
await sql`SELECT 1`

I can only run this command under the following situations:

  • On-site and devcontainer
  • On-site and local machine
  • Homeoffice/VPN and local machine

It does not work for:

  • Homeoffice/VPN and devcontainer

It results in an ECONNRESET error after a few minutes. Interestingly, "pg" work in all 4 situations.

The database is in a corporate network. The vpn is zscaler. Certificates are installed in the devcontainer.

Research direction

Start with the reported postgres() connection and reproduce the four on-site/VPN and devcontainer/local-machine combinations using SELECT 1. Compare the ECONNRESET behavior with the working pg client and document whether the issue can be reproduced or isolated to the devcontainer, VPN, or client. Done means the cause is identified or the supported environment constraints are clearly documented.
