I have a strapi project running on a t2.small EC2 instance, i didn’t use RDS the entire MySQL db is on the same EC2 instance along with all the strapi files.

nginx is setup on the instance too as a reverse proxy. S3 is setup as the upload provider for all media. Now i an error i cant figure out how to deal with and a couple questions on how my setup works.

My main problem is whenever i run:
npm run strapi export -- --file *file-name* --no-encrypt

I get this error

> [email protected] strapi
> strapi export --file May-1-SoADBackup --no-encrypt

}

Node.js v20.11.1

From everything ive seen ECONNRESET is related to network timing out but the last time i ran the same command there were no issues and i changed no configs since. Similar threads pointed out the issue could be in my nginx.conf so i made these changes to that, still the same problem

# nginx.conf

server {
  sendfile off;
  ...
  proxy_buffering off;
  ...
}

Not sure what to do here and quite honestly don’t understand strapi’s architecture enough to debug it myself.

Thank you in advance!
