I am trying to move my old uploads to S3. I started a post about this earlier here:
> [@SMF2 Conversion and Rake to S3 Help](https://meta.discourse.org/t/smf2-conversion-and-rake-to-s3-help/151325/9):

> OK, got the site rebuilt and the S3 setup steps were followed. Everything should be loading from S3 now. So how do I verify that? Can I delete the old uploads directory on my droplet now to free up space?
I got our CDN setup and everything ultimately was working fine. I then followed the instructions for doing the S3 setup here:

> information_source This topic covers how to configure some common S3 compatible Object Storage providers (S3 clones). See [Set up file and image uploads to S3](https://meta.discourse.org/t/setting-up-file-and-image-uploads-to-s3/7229) for more details about Amazon AWS S3 configuration, which is officially supported and used internally by Discourse for our hosting services.

Did my rebuild and now my site comes up blank except for the loading time widget on the top left.

I clearly did something wrong, but I have no clue what or how to fix it. Help please!
EDIT: Sidekiq still loads, but doesn’t show any processes running.

Hey, your site is using my **example** domain `https://falcoland-files-cdn.falco.dev` as the S3 CDN.
As said in the guide, that domain should point to the domain of the CDN service you are using to cache the Object Storage files.

That author himself! 🙂
Oh, I’m an idiot! I changed it in the dashboard, but not in the app.yml. Rebuilding!

Does the transfer over to s3 happen in the background now?

Given the new hook, it should happen during rebuild. Yes, it happens in the Prime Time 😉
