Migration to new server failed, can't reach dashboard

[ianhyzy]

I moved my cloudron install to a new server and used the restore option. All my appears appeared briefly, but then all showed "error" on the dashboard so I rebooted the box. Now, I can't get to the dashboard at all - it looks like an Nginx issue (?)

To get going, please remove the /etc/nginx/applications/1368c982-f55e-425c-9209-4d9c3009a0aa.conf file and then nginx should start again.

Can you see the nginx logs via journalctl -u nginx and cat /var/log/nginx/error.log
Also you can start/restart nginx with systemctl start nginx (not that if it is not running at all the systemd unit restart subcommand is not reliable)

Looks like you have hit https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/4267/installation-failed-due-to-nginx-config-error ?

To get going, please remove the /etc/nginx/applications/1368c982-f55e-425c-9209-4d9c3009a0aa.conf file and then nginx should start again.

As mentioned in the other post, I will revert that alltube release for a start until fixed. In your case you have to downgrade/restore the app afterwards to an older version.

@nebulon that fixed it, thank you for the quick response!

[ianhyzy]

@nebulon one more issue that's popping up - the server completely stops working after a few minutes of everything working fine and I can't SSH in either. Any way to find out what's doing that?
