Having trouble getting the site up after update

Update from GUI failed. So I did a commandline update by doing the following:

cd /var/discourse
./launcher rebuild app

When I try to connect to the site from the browser, I get ‘This site can’t be reached’ error. Thinking that maybe the container has not started, I tried

./launcher start app

I get a message saying that the container has already started. I did the following for good measure:
./launcher restart app

Still the same problem. The site remains unreachable from browser. I’m not very familiar with docker or discourse. So not even sure where to begin debugging.

This is what I get when I do
./launcher logs app

x86_64 arch detected.

I would appreciate if somebody could help me get the site up again.

On a whim, I reran:
./launcher rebuild app

It started working again. I have no idea what went wrong before. But I’m glad it healed.
