Without me changing anything, my Discourse forum https://lilypond.community suddenly started returning an error page for any request with login cookies: Oops The software powering this discussion forum encountered an unexpected problem. We apologize for the inconvenience. Detailed information ab…

Edit: this did not solve my problem, as I discover after several hours. One could also use rails from an ssh access, I believe. This might be a terrible idea. Proceed at your own risk. # docker exec -i app rails runner 'puts SiteSetting.version_checks' true # docker exec -i app rails runner 'Sit…

It seems that Github continue with issues, that were the previous ones: [Bild] The August 17 outage, and the work ahead An update on the August 17 outage and the steps we're taking to improve reliability. Est. reading time: 4 minutes

My own forum is working again as well. However, the issue is certainly not solved in general: an outage of GitHub shouldn’t cause an outage of Discourse forums in the first place.

Yet it does, because any reason why rebuilding of a container fails, will kill Discourse (and that’s why we have an option: 2-container setup). But sure. It would be nice if the app-container would survive.

[Bild] jeanas: an outage of GitHub shouldn’t cause an outage of Discourse forums in the first place. I completely agree. And in my case, there was no rebuild or other intentional git action. These were I think ‘helpful’ git actions which turned out not to be helpful. I would like my self-hos…
