I'm having trouble with my first Bludit install. The initial setup and admin password pages work.

But the Main page and Admin page don't render correctly.

I've installed Bludit on a single VPS behind a reverse proxy with Letsencrypt, and have tried both jwilder/nginx and traefik proxies which are working well with my other apps.

My data is on a persistent volume. I had to set my Bludit root directory to 777, when I initially encountered a "check bl-content permissions" error.

When I load the Bludit home page as source in a web browser, the paths for things like themes, css, favicons, etc all seem to be resolving correctly.

This is the docker-compose file I'm using:

Code: Select all

version: "3"

networks:
  web:
    external: true
  internal:
    external: false

services:

  bludit:
    image: bludit/docker:latest
    container_name: bludit-app
    networks:
      - internal
      - web
    volumes:
      - /mnt/extstorage01/bludit/bl-content:/usr/share/nginx/html/bl-content
    labels:
      - traefik.backend=docs
      - traefik.frontend.rule=Host:docs.[domainremoved].com
      - traefik.docker.network=web
      - traefik.port=80
    restart: unless-stopped
Any ideas on what else I can try?

Thanks!

It looks like a problem with the base URL in the settings, got to the admin panel > settings > general > advance > site url, and check if it ok.

This was the problem. The Site URL was "http://docs.mydomain.com" and changing "http" to "https" fixed it. I refreshed my browser and the home and admin page are loading correctly now.

Thank you for the suggestion, and the path to that setting. The admin page was so miss-formatted I would've never found it otherwise.

Really appreciate your help.

Thank you.
