I used the GitHub - 6Ministers/taiga-io-docker-compose-for-projects: About Fast set-up Taiga Kanban for Business with Docker Compose to setup a host the other day. It didn’t work right out of the box, so I added ngnix as a webserver and somehow got it working.
Today, I am retracing my steps and stumpling around.
I see this error. On the URL. Docker is not showing any errors.
I think my error is coming from ngnix. I don’t appear to be able to connect the proxy. Any suggestions ?
I see 426 codes in my ngnix logs.
