Hi everyone, I have a problem with a Discourse install where the screen is completely blank after I deleted a custom emoji from the admin panel. I have tried running ./launcher rebuild app and it didn’t work, I’m still getting the white screen :frowning: In the nginx log I got a whole series of e…

Disk full? Out of memory? Swap file set up? Docker installed properly? I think you have some other problem. Check disk, memory, and docker info.
