Hi! I am running an Ubuntu 18.04 server with Apache installed. I am wanting to install Discourse on a different port then use a reverse proxy via apache to make it accessible via a URL. I tried making an app.yml & changing the settings in there then ran: ./launcher rebuild app and everything goes well until the end where I get a ‘Failed’ error with this: > ## FAILED > > Pups::ExecError: cd /var/www/discourse && su discourse -c ‘bundle exec rake themes:update assets:precompile’ failed w ith return #\ > Location of failure: /pups/lib/pups/exec\_command.rb:112:in `spawn’ > exec failed with the params {“cd”=\>“$home”, “hook”=\>“assets\_precompile”, “cmd”=\>[“su discourse -c ‘bundle exec rake t hemes:update assets:precompile’”]} > 2beda643ff51279f145c96cdede83a1d6b65f67e00225be74100c8fb9fe3f790 > \*\* FAILED TO BOOTSTRAP \*\* please scroll up and look for earlier error messages, there may be more than one. > ./discourse-doctor may help diagnose the problem. I tried using discourse-doctor but this told me nothing. Does anyone have a way to fix this? Also, I am using Apache as I find it easier to use and have more experience with Apache. So switching to Nginx isn’t an option. **Here is some logs from above the failed section:** > MaxMind IP database updates require a license > Please set DISCOURSE\_MAXMIND\_LICENSE\_KEY to one you generated at [https://www.maxmind.com](https://www.maxmind.com) > MaxMind IP database updates require a license > Please set DISCOURSE\_MAXMIND\_LICENSE\_KEY to one you generated at [https://www.maxmind.com](https://www.maxmind.com) > 98765.375844045 Compressing: vendor-9297d3b5d396b76cde3e1a19c960cf10c5edf8be99b1f5aeff21012e3ae57a34.js > terser ‘/var/www/discourse/public/assets/\_vendor-9297d3b5d396b76cde3e1a19c960cf10c5edf8be99b1f5aeff21012e3ae57a34.js’ -m -c -o ‘/var/www/discourse/public/assets/vendor-9297d3b5d396b76cde3e1a19c960cf10c5edf8be99b1f5aeff21012e3ae57a34.js’ --source-map “base=‘/var/www/discourse/public/assets’,root=‘/assets’,url=‘/assets/vendor-9297d3b5d396b76cde3e1a19c960cf10c5edf8be99b1f5aeff21012e3ae57a34.js.map’” > \<— Last few GCs —\> > > [3798:0x4872980] 2679 ms: Scavenge 108.1 (126.5) → 97.8 (129.8) MB, 9.0 / 0.0 ms (average mu = 1.000, current mu = 1.000) allocation failure > [3798:0x4872980] 2823 ms: Scavenge 111.4 (129.8) → 101.3 (132.8) MB, 8.4 / 0.0 ms (average mu = 1.000, current mu = 1.000) allocation failure > [3798:0x4872980] 2964 ms: Scavenge 114.8 (133.0) → 104.8 (135.3) MB, 32.7 / 0.0 ms (average mu = 1.000, current mu = 1.000) allocation failure > > \<— JS stacktrace —\> > > FATAL ERROR: NewSpace::Rebalance Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory > 1: 0xa89e60 node::Abort() [node] > 2: 0x9ade29 node::FatalError(char const\*, char const\*) [node] > 3: 0xc7583e v8::Utils::ReportOOMFailure(v8::internal::Isolate\*, char const\*, bool) [node] > 4: 0xc75bb7 v8::internal::V8::FatalProcessOutOfMemory(v8::internal::Isolate\*, char const\*, bool) [node] > 5: 0xe3f6d5 [node] > 6: 0xe7ec67 [node] > 7: 0xe90b11 v8::internal::MarkCompactCollector::CollectGarbage() [node] > 8: 0xe4c9d8 v8::internal::Heap::MarkCompact() [node] > 9: 0xe4e368 v8::internal::Heap::CollectGarbage(v8::internal::AllocationSpace, v8::internal::GarbageCollectionReason, v8::GCCallbackFlags) [node] > 10: 0xe5190c v8::internal::Heap::AllocateRawWithRetryOrFailSlowPath(int, v8::internal::AllocationType, v8::internal::AllocationOrigin, v8::internal::AllocationAlignment) [node] > 11: 0xe157da v8::internal:🏭:NewFillerObject(int, bool, v8::internal::AllocationType, v8::internal::AllocationOrigin) [node] > 12: 0x116d5e8 v8::internal::Runtime\_AllocateInOldGeneration(int, unsigned long\*, v8::internal::Isolate\*) [node] > 13: 0x15045f9 [node] > Aborted (core dumped) > rake aborted! > Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory @ rb\_file\_s\_size - /var/www/discourse/public/assets/vendor-9297d3b5d396b76cde3e1a19c960cf10c5edf8be99b1f5aeff21012e3ae57a34.js > /var/www/discourse/lib/tasks/assets.rake:293:in `size' /var/www/discourse/lib/tasks/assets.rake:293:in `block (4 levels) in ’ > /var/www/discourse/lib/tasks/assets.rake:182:in `block in concurrent?' /var/www/discourse/lib/tasks/assets.rake:284:in `block (3 levels) in ’ > /var/www/discourse/lib/tasks/assets.rake:273:in `each' /var/www/discourse/lib/tasks/assets.rake:273:in `block (2 levels) in ’ > /var/www/discourse/lib/tasks/assets.rake:182:in `concurrent?' /var/www/discourse/lib/tasks/assets.rake:270:in `block in ’ > /var/www/discourse/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.7.0/gems/rake-13.0.6/exe/rake:27:in `' /usr/local/bin/bundle:23:in `load’ > /usr/local/bin/bundle:23:in `’ > Tasks: TOP =\> assets:precompile > (See full trace by running task with --trace) > I, [2021-07-21T16:25:26.467914 #1] INFO – : Downloading MaxMindDB… > Compressing Javascript and Generating Source Maps > > I, [2021-07-21T16:25:26.469702 #1] INFO – : Terminating async processes > I, [2021-07-21T16:25:26.469947 #1] INFO – : Sending INT to HOME=/var/lib/postgresql USER=postgres exec chpst -u postgres:postgres:ssl-cert -U postgres:postgres:ssl-cert /usr/lib/postgresql/13/bin/postmaster -D /etc/postgresql/13/main pid: 56 > I, [2021-07-21T16:25:26.470157 #1] INFO – : Sending TERM to exec chpst -u redis -U redis /usr/bin/redis-server /etc/redis/redis.conf pid: 174 > 2021-07-21 16:25:26.470 UTC [56] LOG: received fast shutdown request > 174:signal-handler (1626884726) Received SIGTERM scheduling shutdown… > 2021-07-21 16:25:26.473 UTC [56] LOG: aborting any active transactions > 174:M 21 Jul 2021 16:25:26.473 # User requested shutdown… > 174:M 21 Jul 2021 16:25:26.474 \* Saving the final RDB snapshot before exiting. > 2021-07-21 16:25:26.479 UTC [56] LOG: background worker “logical replication launcher” (PID 65) exited with exit code 1 > 174:M 21 Jul 2021 16:25:26.480 \* DB saved on disk > 2021-07-21 16:25:26.480 UTC [60] LOG: shutting down > 174:M 21 Jul 2021 16:25:26.480 # Redis is now ready to exit, bye bye… > 2021-07-21 16:25:26.515 UTC [56] LOG: database system is shut down Thanks, Kian --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/installing-discourse-with-apache2-installed/197771)._
