Redis template throws "permission denied" error

When using the redis.template.yml on rebuild in a setup with separate containers (web_only, data), i see

...
/.launcher rebuild web_only

redis.template.yml should be a part of data.yml

I just performed a git pull followed by ./launcher rebuild web_only and it completed successfully.
Have you tried using ./discourse-doctor although it may not help much.

If you can still boot up your old container using ./launcher start web_only then maybe try taking a full backup (as insurance) then try ./launcher stop web_only; ./launcher rebuild data if no errors occur in rebuilding data then try ./launcher rebuild web_only to see if that fixes the problem?

in the meanwhile, Iā€™m moving this topic to support due to lack of a consistent repro.

ok, then I mixed something up, I thought the redis template is part of the web_only container but its already included in the settings of the data container - where it makes more sense :wink:
