After Updating, Unable to Access Gitea Instance

Hello Everyone :hugs:,

I followed the official upgrade process to upgrade my Gitea instance from version 1.14.4 to 1.15.3 lately. But now that I’ve successfully finished the upgrading procedure, I’m having trouble using my browser to access any repositories or the Gitea online interface.

Here are some specifics of my configuration:

  • Database: PostgreSQL;
  • Operating System: Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS
  • Web host: Gitea Nginx
  • Binary Installation Method

The actions I’ve done so far to troubleshoot:

  • looked for any mistakes or incorrect Nginx setups.
  • Using systemctl status gitea, it was confirmed that the Gitea service is operating error-free.
  • Examining the Gitea logs (/var/log/gitea.log) revealed no particular faults associated with this problem.
  • I get a “Connection Refused” error in the browser.

Actually, I also check this: https://forum.gitea.com/t/gitea-doesnt-start-after-update-to-1-19/6920/minitab but I didn’t get satisfactory solution.

Could you help me figure out what could be causing this problem and how to fix it? Any advice or recommendations would be much valued.

Thank You :pray: in advance.

Firstly, I’d recommend updating to the latest stable version (at the time of writing this is 1.22.0) instead of 1.15.3

If your browser is getting a “connection refused” error, it is unable to connect to nginx. Can you see if the Nginx process is running?
