Service stuck in endless install, starting, killing service loop

Product support

I’m launching a service using docker-compose but the service keeps getting stuck in a loop. I left it overnight and it actually seemed to fix itself, but when pushing new changes the cycle starts all over again. I don’t see any errors in the logs though so unsure of what the issue might be.

log output

What are some additional steps I could take to provide more information or to troubleshoot on my own.

Thanks.

Hi. Could you share with us in a private message the dashboard link to your device? And also enable support access for a few days for that device?
Please let us know in this thread when the above have been sent over private message

I got this a lot. Turns out the container manager gets very upset if your environment variables have unexpected characters like spaces, which often get picked up during a cut and paste.
