Cleaning up...

If try to install old version of sentry - 21.6.3 then everything is fine and there is no errors during installation (but there is nginx 502 bad gateway error during capturing exceptions).

My environments details
OS: CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core)
Docker: 20.10.8
Docker-compose: 1.29.2

Can your run docker-compose logs snuba-api and share the output?

I am getting the same error when I ran the command you asked for this is what I got:

user@machine:~/onpremise-21.8.0$ sudo docker-compose logs snuba-api
Attaching to
user@machine:~/onpremise-21.9.0$ sudo docker-compose logs snuba-api
Attaching to

My environments details
OS: Ubuntu Server 20.04.3 LTS
Docker: 20.10.8, build 3967b7d
Docker-compose: 1.29.2

I’m afraid there’s something wrong with your machine or Docker system then as you should be able to get the logs even if the containers went down.

I have only really used docker as a service and never really had to do any debugging of it is there anything you could suggest me looking into?

You may look into your system logs. Typically this is caused by OOM-killer

This issue was fixed. The problem was related to file permissions.

  1. Add 777 for all installation files.
  2. Run ./install.sh - get new permission error.
  3. Add 777 for new created files.
  4. Do step 2 and 3 until everything will run successfully.

I know that it is not good solution but it is acceptable for me.
