I had an error message when trying to add a post with an embedded graphic. It appeared that there was a file protection issue and it was suggested that I perform:
./launcher rebuild app
I did that and got these errors:
FAILED

Pups::ExecError: cd /var/www/discourse && su discourse -c 'bundle exec rake themes:update assets:precompile' failed with return #<Process::Status: pid 515 exit 1>

** FAILED TO BOOTSTRAP ** please scroll up and look for earlier error messages, there may be more than one.

The error is a bit baffling. This comes up after about five minutes. The thing is my data is in /var/discourse and not in /var/www/discourse. My last backup was a month ago and I’d like to fix this and not lose the last month. Any ideas? Is it possible to backup the database on the system that won’t rebuild and then restore the database somehow on the backup?
There is an earlier error also:Preformatted text

warning Selected the next writable cache folder in the list, will be "/tmp/.yarn-cache-1000".
warning Cannot find a suitable global folder. Tried these: "/usr/local, /home/discourse/.yarn"
