Hey guys I am getting this error running meltano elt through the cli. I am using

tap-facebook

and

target-postgres

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/project/.venv/meltano/bin/meltano", line 8, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())

I saw that this issue was fixed a while ago here so I am confused on why it is happening now. Any help would be appreciated

This suggests that the

database_uri

setting (https://meltano.com/docs/settings.html#database-uri) is set to

None

, could that be? What current value and source do you see listed for that setting when you run

meltano config meltano list

?

I figured it out, thanks for the response! It was because the variable in my instance were not being read properly and had to run as root.
