Description

Hi,

I've installed Gitea on a Raspberry Pi 4B and I noticed in the syslog file that Gitea service keeps stopping and restarting every ~30 seconds.

Here's a part of my /var/log/syslog file log.txt.

I installed it following the documentation : Installation from binary

It works fine except every ~30 seconds it's not available while it's restarting.

Any ideas ?
thanks

You should also check the gitea.log probably found in /var/lib/gitea/log/ or wherever is your GITEA_WORK_DIR/log.

Afterwards, search the error written in the log. There is a high possibility that someone else also stumbled to a similar issue.

PS - I think that Raspbian doesn't support MySql 8 it supports MariaDB so this might also be your problem?! Don't take my word for it. But, when I installed on my Raspberry Pi I used PostgreSQL.

Thanks for your reply.
I had a look at the log file one error was :

2020/05/02 19:18:43 ...eue/queue_wrapped.go:67:setInternal() [W] [Attempt: 798] Failed to create queue: level for task cfg: {/var/lib/gitea/data/queues/task 1000 20 1 6 1s 5m0s 5 task-level} error: leveldb: manifest corrupted (field 'comparer'): missing [file=MANIFEST-000038]

So I tried to delete index files as described here : #7013.
But it didn't fix it, it keeps restarting.

Here's the latest gitea log file, maybe it can help...

This sounds like an abrupt shutdown corrupted your queue databases. You should try deleting the /var/lib/gitea/data/queues/task directory. If that is not enough, you may need to delete all the directories below queues.

[agambier]

Fixed.

I had to delete the index files and all the directories below queues and now it works fines.
Thanks for your help.
