My discourse forum is showing following Oops message. Please help to resolve. [oops]

I have done everything that I can. container rebuild stops at --retry 3 --jobs 4 Forum is now showing Error 521 - Web server is down

did you try to go back to the app.yml file you had before? whenever this sort of thing happens to me it tends to be because of a typo in changes I make in that file.

No, I have checked that. I had only added a git clone url to the app.yml that is removed.

ok - but you didn’t then add a stray letter or character elsewhere in the app.yml file? I have made this mistake myself and paid the price. now I always keep a backup of the file just in case. :slight_smile:

Can you send me the content of app.yml file to check it out. I have edited it more than 10 times in past.

Like @tobiaseigen said, if you added or removed a space somewhere, that could be the problem. It may also be the case that some plugin that used to work is now causing a problem. That flags plugin hasn’t been touched in a year. If this is an emergency that you would like to throw money at you can pay me to fix it.

this might help: [image] Default app.yml file anywhere? Self-hosting I am trying to find a default app.yml file to put into my containers folder so I can edit it as per here. For now, when I try to run set up, I get this message. Port 80 appears to already be in use. If you are trying to run Discourse simultaneously with another web server like Apache or nginx, you will need to bind to a different port See https://meta.discourse.org/t/17247 If you are reconfiguring an already-configured Discourse, use ./launcher stop app to stop Discourse before you reconf…

That’s a good idea. Another way to do that would be to cd /var/discourse cd containers mv app.yml app-safety.yml grep DISCOURSE app-safey.yml cd .. ./discourse setup

I think this all will remove data and install a new discourse :slightly_frowning_face:

No, it won’t. It does assume that your data is stored in shared/standalone.

Sorry not an immediate fix but what about clean rebuild of server and restore from backup? (assuming you have a recent backup?)
