The login form has disappeared from a Discourse instance running on a Bitnami AMI on AWS. Nialls reported the issue, providing a snippet of the site’s site_settings.yml and a screenshot of the problem. david suggested that the issue may be related to the unsupported installation method and recommended trying safe mode and checking for browser console errors. Nialls reported that safe mode did not resolve the issue and plans to reinstall using the official guide.

I’ve got a Discourse installation (Bitnami AMI on AWS) that has been dormant for a couple months… when I returned to it today, I noticed the login form appears to have disappeared.

I have no idea what has caused this as it was working just fine a while back and I was able to login by entering my username and password. It’s also worth mentioning that I’ve tried the admin-login and every known-good email address I try returns unknown.

Here’s a snippet of my site_settings.yml (just the login section): site_settings.yml-login-bitnami-nialls · GitHub

And a screenshot of the issue:

That’s not a supported installation method, and we regularly see issues caused by it. Please follow our official install guide

I would suggest trying safe mode, and looking in your browser console for errors.

Thanks for your reply, @david! Unfortunately safe mode didn’t help, I already tried that and the issue persisted, apologies for not including that point in my OP.

Fortunately it’s an installation with minimal “work-done” so I will likely kill it with fire and start over using your official install guide.
