Issue starting seahub - upgrade 9.0.2 to 9.0.5 Community edition - solved

Seafile Server
#1

Hello there,

I tried to update via minor_change.sh from 9.0.2 to 9.0.5 on an Ubuntu 20.04 server, and seahub is not starting anymore :’(

./seahub.sh start
LC_ALL is not set in ENV, set to en_US.UTF-8
Starting seahub at port 8000 …
Error:Seahub failed to start.
Please try to run “./seahub.sh start” again

Logs are empty.
I tried to launch 9.02, same error.
I fixed PATH for gunicorn/python because it was making warning message

Any idea what to look/try next ?

Take care

In case that helps, here is the result when I launch seahub.sh with verbose mode :slight_smile:

Hi there,

I got a little further.

If i launch seahub with fast-cgi it gives an error message :

Any idea of what I should do to fix this?

Alright I fixed this.

In my “/conf/seahub_settings.py”, all the commented text went on the line below which was doing this syntax error. Why did this happen? No idea…!!!

Anyway I moved it to the right place and now everything is working.
