# Electric - Debugging Sync Issues

When sync stops arriving and the console is no help

## What this does

Your app is supposed to receive live updates from the database and they have stopped, or they crawl, or the console is full of errors you cannot place. This walks the usual causes, most of them sitting in a cache, a proxy, or the database's own settings rather than in your code. Reach for it when sync is broken and you do not know which layer to blame.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Work out why shapes stopped receiving updates
- Read the sync error the console is throwing
- Track slow sync back to a cache or proxy setting

## About Electric - Debugging Sync Issues

Troubleshooting for Electric sync problems. Load it when shapes are not receiving updates, when sync feels slow, or when errors are showing up in the console.

It covers fast-loop detection from CDN or proxy cache key misconfiguration, diagnosing a stale cache, header errors traced back to CORS, handling an expired shape, and proxy buffering settings that hold responses back. It also covers the connection limit that bites in local development, write-ahead log growth from replication slots, CDN cache problems in hosted deployments, and how error handling and backoff behave.
