As per [another topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/error-while-bootstrapping-launcher/20213/5), `docker ps` shows the following:

```
/$ docker ps
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
570f65df6a38 local_discourse/app:latest "/sbin/runit" 3 months ago Up 25 hours 0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp, 0.0.0.0:443->443/tcp, 0.0.0.0:2222->22/tcp determined_pike
```

So I ran `docker kill 570f65df6a38`.

It now appears to be rebuilding…
