Solved Cloudron does not start after Update to 6.3.3

• All my apps were in an error state after the update: Nginx Error: Error reloading nginx: reload exited with code 1 signal null
• the System Reboot button does nothing
• after a manual reboot, Cloudron cannot be reached
• systemctl restart box does not help, either
• sh /home/yellowtent/box/setup/start.sh results in sh /home/yellowtent/box/setup/start.sh: 3: set: Illegal option -o pipefail

[necrevistonnezr]

as per https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54055549/linux-ubuntu-set-illegal-option-o-pipefail: the option pipefail does not work with sh:

You are running bin/sh, on Ubuntu it is a symbolic link pointing to /bin/dash, but pipefail is a bashism.

After running start.sh with bash, I get the following error:

sudo bash /home/yellowtent/box/setup/start.sh

about that nginx error:

And found the error!

• sudo nginx -t led me to etc/nginx/applications
• There I found super old (+ 2 years old) conf files relating to two domains that I had used once to access my Cloudron.
• After deleting these files and retrying the start script, Cloudron is reachable.
• Now I just have to click on the "Retry configure task" in each app and they are running!

@necrevistonnezr ah, glad you figured that out.

I will see if we can delete unused old nginx config files during upgrade

@girish I would avoid deleting them, but instead migrate them to the deactivated directory.
