Problems with new self-hosted instance. Not Docker

Troubleshooting
1

Hi, we formerly had a tree.taiga.io Taiga instance, but a colleague has just set up an instance of Taiga for us locally, using source rather than Docker. I am having some basic problems getting started.

  1. Trying to create a test project results in a page hang. Console shows 500 error when POSTing to /api/v1/projects. If i paste that url directly into the the browser, the GET request works fine with 200 status.
  2. I don’t see any way to add new users. Perhaps the account I’ve been allocated doesn’t have full admin status?
  3. Trying to import a project exported as json from tree.taiga.io results in an ‘Oops something went wrong’ message.

I have SSH access to the site, can you recommend trouble shooting steps?

Many thanks, Mike

OK, I managed to troubleshoot this myself and now all seems to be working. I’m waiting for all the members to accept their invitations before trying to import the projects though. Issues were as follows:

  • Configuration of rabbitmq was incorrect, I think it was configured for a Docker setup.
  • gunicorn had to be updated.
  • The default email address was misconfigured, so member invitations were failing silently.
