It’s been one month exactly since discourse has been giving me 404 error on assets files (css/js etc) after I did “git pull” and then “rebuild” on approximately May 15th as its was asking me upgrade via command line on the automatic upgrade page.

And then now today after several days, I have tried to reinstall again and it’s still the same even though it’s been days. My app.yml file content is given below.

```
##
## After making changes to this file, you MUST rebuild for any changes
## to take effect in your live Discourse instance:
##
## /var/discourse/launcher rebuild app
##
## Make sure to obey YAML syntax! You can use this site to help check:

## this is the all-in-one, standalone Discourse Docker container template

# You may add rate limiting by uncommenting the web.ratelimited template.
# Out of the box it allows 12 reqs a second per ip, and 100 per minute per ip
# This is configurable by amending the params in this file

templates:
  - "templates/postgres.template.yml"
  - "templates/redis.template.yml"

## Remember, this is YAML syntax - you can only have one block with a name
run:
    - exec:
        cd: $home
        cmd:
          - rm -fr public/assets
          - sudo -E -u discourse bundle exec rake assets:precompile
          - mkdir -p public/community
          - cd public/community && ln -s ../uploads && ln -s ../backups
    - replace:
       global: true
       filename: /etc/nginx/conf.d/discourse.conf
       from: proxy_pass http://discourse;
       to: |
          rewrite ^/(.*)$ /community/$1 break;
          proxy_pass http://discourse;
    - replace:
       filename: /etc/nginx/conf.d/discourse.conf
       from: etag off;
       to: |
          etag off;
          location /community {
             rewrite ^/community/?(.*)$ /$1;
          }
    - replace:
         filename: /etc/nginx/conf.d/discourse.conf
         from: $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for
         to: $http_fastly_client_ip
         global: true

    - exec: echo "End of custom commands" 

```

I have disabled all the plugins in the YML config, but its 404 error on assets. In the app container, the folder “community” is already created.

Any suggestions?
