Describe the Bug

I have a python app deployed inside a container running on Cloudflare. The app is configured to use Hyperdrive for postgresql connectivity, but it is unable to connect.

Please provide any relevant error logs

psycopg2.OperationalError: could not translate host name "66c4c2b923f89002cbc61b8192b83e63.hyperdrive.local" to address: Name or service not known
