Hello there.

Yesterday my Discourse forum was working fine: it’s more than one year that runs successfully on a Digital Ocean machine and I never had problems.

Before going to sleep yesterday, I checked my forum and all was fine. I wake up this morning and I get a 502 Bad Gateway error. I didn’t attempt to upgrade, and not even some kind of operation on the VM.

I mean… how is this even possible? I am clueless.

I tried to do a ./launcher restart app but it didn’t help, so I ran a ./launcher rebuild app and I get this:

root@Forum:/var/discourse# ./launcher rebuild app

It looks like this error is Docker-related but I wouldn’t know how to solve it. Any help?

How much disk space, how much memory? Check memory and disk space. Disk space in particular gets used up over time…

You were right. Disk space was almost unexisting. I removed some old backups and now I have this:

System load: 0.89
Processes: 111
Usage of /: 92.2% of 29.40GB
Memory usage: 83%
Swap usage: 29%
=> / is using 92.2% of 29.40GB

The forum went online almost instantly after that. Thanks!

However, as you can see from the stats above, I’ll probably have the same problem in a while. What can I do to free disk space, apart from reducing the number of stored backups? I once had the download remote images to local feature activated, but not anymore (since a few months, actually). Maybe I could delete something from there?

clean up old docker images

cd /var/discourse
./launcher cleanup

and clean up old Ubuntu updates

apt-get autoclean
apt-get autoremove

Terminated successfully, but

Kept running for ~4h. At the end my ssh session with the VM terminated because of a network issue and I couldn’t see the output of the command (if there was one… for what I know, it might be still running).

However, from the Discourse dashboard I’m tracking the free space on the disk and it’s… odd.

It says I have 261 MB free but this morning after deleting the backups I had more than 1 GB.

The /var/discourse directory is 4.3GB only. Could it be that something like the OS is downloading upgrades that I must apply to clear up space?

6

That is very very odd. Can you try again? @sam any reason this command wouldn’t execute?

Tried again some minutes ago and I got this

WARNING: We are about to start downloading the Discourse base image

Unable to find image ‘discourse/discourse:1.3.10’ locally
Repository docker.io/discourse/discourse already being pulled by another client. Waiting.

Last time I ran the command, it tried to download the image and got stuck on a Pull Complete message for hours. I guess it is still running.

Reboot your server. And then try again.

Rebooting the server worked, the ./launcher cleanup command ran successfully! Thanks!

However, it only cleared 16 MB. :frowning: Is there any other way to clear disk space?

On a sidenote, when I start my SSH session with the VM I read:

115 packages can be updated.
64 updates are security updates.

New release ‘16.04.1 LTS’ available.
Run ‘do-release-upgrade’ to upgrade to it.

And the apt-get autoremove command returns:

Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information… Done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 114 not upgraded.

Is there any chance that performing the upgrades will free disk space?

I think that you need a bigger disk. One way to save space is saving less backups, like only last 3 or 5, but looks like your forum is big enough that you need to move to a bigger machine.
