SOLVED Cloudron Dashboard and Apps inaccessible after updating Cloudron to new version

[Manas]

I update my Cloudron when I received an email from Cloudron team saying new version has been released.

I hit reboot in the dashboard and after that I cannot access my dashboard or the apps anymore. When I tried using command line to check for errors as per the documentation, I understood that the disk has somehow filled up.

I used this command "apt-get remove dpkg --list 'linux-image*' |grep ^ii | awk '{print $2}'\ | grep -v \uname -r``" and then rebooted the server.

Running the command "/home/yellowtent/box/setup/start.sh" gave me this output.

The command journalctl -u nginx says there is an error with Nginx.

Starting nginx - high performance web server...

This output keeps repeating itself.

I hosted Nextcloud and Matrix. Thanks in advance.

@manas What is inside the certificate file that nginx is erroring? Is it an empty file or missing entirely?

[Manas]

@girish I have removed that file. done sudo apt auto clean and rebooted the server.
After reboot and runnning the /home/yellowtent/box/setup/start.sh
command, everything worked again. That key was the issue.
