      This line here is suspicious:

      Oc**t 19 18:01:29 [2025-10-19T16:01:29.888] [ERROR] server - TypeError: Unexpected ? at 17, expected END: https://git.new/pathToRegexpError

      Somehow the /run/etherpad-lite/node_modules/.pnpm/path-to-regexp module is throwing an error resulting in the termination of the process.

      To make sure no module is corrupted, could you:

      • put the app into recovery mode
      • open the web-terminal
      • ensure that /run/etherpad-lite does not exist
      • start the app with /app/pkg/start.sh to see if this issue persists.

          @sponch so this should be fixed with version 4.4.1 as now all plugin versions are pinned and updated to the etherpad version (ep_markdown wasn't part of that list in 4.4.0 yet)

          We should have revoked the 4.4.0 package, just looking into this now. Can you see if you can update the app all the way to 4.4.1 and if that fixes the issue?

              Looks like some of those custom variables do make a difference then, even though they seem unrelated 😕

              So the error is the same as you pasted above? So far I am not able to reproduce it though.

                I did a update test round now with those two variables set as mentioned, however also that works fine. Did you configure anything else by any chance? Especially some configs for the markdown plugin?

                  Just changed the variables with the one from a fresh installed version. Same problem.
