Erros 404 (assets) na instalação em subpasta

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.

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?

I made the below changes to the config but did not help.

run:
    - exec:
        cd: $home
        cmd:
          - mkdir -p public/community
          - cd public/community && ln -s ../uploads && ln -s ../backups

       global: true
       filename: /etc/nginx/conf.d/discourse.conf
       from: proxy_pass http://discourse;
       to: |
          rewrite ^/(.*)$ /forum/$1 break;
          proxy_pass http://discourse;
    - replace:
       filename: /etc/nginx/conf.d/discourse.conf
       from: etag off;
       to: |
          etag off;
          location /community {
             rewrite ^/community/?(.*)$ /$1;
          }
    - replace:
         filename: /etc/nginx/conf.d/discourse.conf

         global: true

update:

there are 2 folders in /public/community i.e. “backup” and “uploads”. I tried changing the version from tests-passed to stable again but the issue remains the same i.e. no javascript or CSS files and giving 404 error… I also tried to change the permission for the “uploads” folder in community and symlinked assets folder in community but did not help.

Downgrading isn’t possible, if you’re on tests-passed you can’t rebuild on a lower version (beta/stable).

You would need to stay on the current tests-passed release until Stable or Beta catches up.

Subfolder installs are considered an advanced topic and we really can’t support them here because of all the problems which arise. There are pages and pages of topics detailing the types of problems found when installing against a subfolder. In 2019 there’s really no good reason to use a subfolder install, all of the SEO claims have been debunked, and the added complexity really adds nothing of value.

Even on CDCK hosting, subfolder installs are only available to enterprise customers, with an additional fee.

I would suggest reverting to a subdomain, or opening a topic on marketplace to engage with a consultant.

I destroyed the container and then rebuild it with the stable release, the problem is with the assets i.e. CSS or javascript files which are not being found. This error happened probably in the update of May. Is there a way I install the previous versions?

Destroying the container doesn’t help, your database was migrated, and as I’ve already said above there’s no way to migrate back. If you didn’t take a backup prior to upgrade you’re stuck at tests-passed until beta or stable reaches the same level.

If you have a backup from then you might be able to do a new build and put the Verdun you want in the version line.

You might try entering the container and doing a

 rake assets:precompile

My current subfolder solution is with traefik as the reverse proxy. I offer that installation as a service if you’re interested.

Atualmente, estou tentando uma instalação limpa primeiro, como você pode ver na primeira postagem, até a página de registro não está funcionando corretamente. Já tentei assets:precompile, mas não houve efeito. Existe alguma maneira de tentar instalar uma versão mais antiga do Discourse Docker?

A menos que você queira usar este fórum por uma ou duas semanas e depois excluí-lo, você realmente, realmente, realmente não quer fazer isso.

Minha suposição é que você pulou algum passo minúsculo em algum lugar que está causando o problema, provavelmente na configuração externa do Nginx. Você quer descobrir isso com a versão mais recente.

Uma instalação limpa completa seguindo Serve Discourse from a subfolder (path prefix) instead of a subdomain não está funcionando?

Sim, não está funcionando. É por isso que estou travado em erros 404: os arquivos JavaScript não estão sendo carregados e retornando erro 404, conforme mostrado na primeira postagem.

esta é minha configuração externa para o proxy reverso Nginx.

location /community {
        pagespeed  off;
        rewrite         /(.*) /$1  break;
        proxy_pass      http://127.0.0.1:25654/;
        proxy_read_timeout      90;
        proxy_redirect  http://127.0.0.1:25654/ https://www.domain.com/community;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}

Mas o arquivo yml que você tem acima não parece com o que está em Serve Discourse from a subfolder (path prefix) instead of a subdomain.

Isso ocorre porque aquele arquivo de configuração não funcionava no passado, então o que estou usando agora foi sugerido por @neil aqui e funcionou anteriormente. Atualmente, também tentei o arquivo de configuração enviado lá, mas ele também não funcionou.

Bem, acabei de comprar um novo droplet e configurei aqui: https://subfolder.muito.ninja/forum, seguindo o Serve Discourse from a subfolder (path prefix) instead of a subdomain

Está funcionando bem para mim.

Então, temo que seu proxy reverso esteja causando o problema…

Olá @john3, a instalação em subpasta é dolorosa :grinning:

Comparei minha configuração (esquerda) e a sua (direita), dê uma olhada na linha 12, provavelmente você esqueceu de alterar a palavra forum. Em seguida, tenho um bloco extra replace, linhas 22-29:

O final:

Proxy externo:

location /discuss {

Você poderia compartilhar comigo sua configuração de proxy reverso?

Fiz as alterações e continua igual. Minhas configurações estão abaixo. Estou usando CentOS 7 com overlay2 como driver de armazenamento de dispositivos.

Poderia me enviar a última parte da sua configuração YML, ou seja, -exec…?

Isso depende de qual software você está usando para fazer o proxy reverso.

Estou usando o Caddy e seguindo Use Caddy instead of NGINX as your reverse proxy

A única mudança em relação ao guia é adicionar a pasta no Caddyfile:

subfolder.muito.ninja

proxy /forum unix:/sock/nginx.http.sock {
  transparent
}

Entendi… Estou usando um Droplet da Digital Ocean com CentOS 7 e o driver de armazenamento overlay2. Nginx como servidor web e SSL do Let’s Encrypt.
