Clients sending in events resulting in 502 error

Been running an onpremise install of Sentry for about a year now. recently upgraded to the latest and just noticed we stopped getting events from our client applications. In checking the proxy logs, I see them trying to send stuff in, but it is returning a 502 error. I can log into the sentry app fine and navigate around without issue. When I looked at the nginx logs, I see it complaining failing to connect to upstream host 172.18.0.29:3000. When I do a docker network inspect on the onpremise network to see what .29 is, I dont find a .29 address listed. Tried restarting, and that did not help. All appeared to come up clean. I have checked everything I can find to check, but not really sure what do do next.
Any help or suggestions in how to trouble shot this?

That must be relay. Can you check if your relay instance is healthy and up?

You appear to be correct.

In checking relay logs, I just see this repeated over and over.

relay_1                                     | error: could not parse json config file (file /work/.relay/credentials.json)
relay_1                                     |   caused by: expected value at line 1 column 1

Ok, from what you helped me find, I see that the credentials.json file was not valid. It actually had:

cat credentials.json
error: could not open config file (file /tmp/config.yml)
  caused by: Permission denied (os error 13)

This confused me at first. Then I realized that is the actual contents of the file.

So I removed the file and ran install.sh again. This appears to have created a proper credentials.json file, with a secret_key, public_key, and id. But when I tried to start everything back up, relay is still restarting.

I see this in its logs now.

relay_1                                     | 2021-10-07T21:17:34Z [relay::setup] INFO: launching relay without config folder

Do I have to copy that json file somewhere else since it was messed up? Not sure what to do now.

Just reporting back incase anyone else runs into this. My final problem turned out to be a permissions issue. a chown and chmod to open up the permissions seemed to fix this issue for me.

Thanks @BYK for pointing me in the correct direction!
