Dune Awakening failing after update

I am unable to get Dune Awakening to launch after updating Amp this morning.

OS Name/Version: Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS (GNU/Linux 6.8.0-136-generic x86_64)

Product Name/Version: AMP Release “Proteus” v2.8.0.4, built 24/07/2026 17:13

Problem Description:

It appears there is an error in the DB migration that happens on server startup. Postgress starts but then says the DB doesn’t exist. Should I try to restore from backup? as it is I have been having to backup the whole AMP server since Dune awakening backups have not been working.
