If you visit `/logs` on your Discourse instance while logged in as an admin, it should show you more details on errors like this. If you can share the contents of the ‘info’ and ‘backtrace’ tabs for the relevant error, that’ll help us track down the problem.

Edit: oh I see you already looked there 🤔. Could you double check that you have all the error types enabled in the bottom left of `/logs` ?
