Trying to start my node and having errors. Below is the error message. For reference: Using GCP, Ubuntu, Postgres Public db, Docker 0.9.4, and Infura. Replaced my password with PASSWORD in error message, but was entered correctly during testing. I'm close, I believe, just need some help getting over this final hurdle. Thank you!

If you have your virtual machine for the Chainlink node (Ubuntu) and your PostgreSQL server with its database hosted in the same virtual private cloud on GCP, then it is recommended to take out the public IP of the postgres server and create an internal IP. You can change this in the postgres settings under "Connections". Then add this private IP (10.x.x.x) to your DATABASE_URL config in your environmental file. The Chainlink node should now be able to establish a connection. Please ensure that you remove the Chainlink node before a reinitialisation.

  1. You can check all current containers (including the killed ones) with :docker ps -a
  2. kill a container with: docker kill <container-name>
  3. remove a container with: docker rm <container-name>

Then finally just reinitialize the node with your run command.
