I’m not able to connect to my discourse at all from the web browser. What do I do?

That’s a very open-ended question, with little to go on. Maybe give us a little information? has it ever worked? how was it installed? where is it installed? what have you tried? We make best efforts to help here, but you need to give us some real information to work with before that’s possible.

Yes, it’s been working fine and suddenly I can’t connect. I’m not sure what to do. It’s installed on a Digital Ocean server.

I can connect to the server fine just when I try to access from a web browser it says it can’t connect.

The domain and everything else is fine.

You’ve verified the DNS is still pointing to the correct IP address of the digital ocean server? Can you SSH in via terminal to the digital ocean IP address?

Were you using SSL? How was this installed?

Yes the domain works fine. I have a website on there already. My discourse goes to a subdomain. No SSL.

How do I verify that my Discourse is working properly?

Is there anything else I can do? I’ve been using this for years and it suddenly stopped working. Did I get hacked? How do I rebuild?

I tried to rebuild but get this error and the link appears to be broken. [New]
