can not connect to homeserver db with unix socket peer authentication

My configuration does not contain a database password, because none is required.

    password=database_args["password"],
KeyError: 'password'

are you able to try and see if replacing this line https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-s3-storage-provider/blob/1beb6af95e1f5caedb8e6e7e1cc176cdb2106d37/scripts/s3_media_upload#L418

with

password=database_args.get("password"),

makes that work?

If so, this should be an easy fix.

Any updates on this?

Oh whoops, misread the comment and thought the config was wrong.

Looks like using database.yaml instead should at least serve as a workaround.
