Web container fails to start up, but no errors logged

We started with the docker-compose file setup which worked great. We’re now extracting kafka and redis out and running them on their own separate resources.

However, we’re running into an issue where the web container isn’t starting up but is also not logging any errors (we did make changes to the sentry.conf.py file)

Any ideas of what we can try to get some more information about what’s failing?

It probably gets hang/stuck when trying to connect to Redis.

Hi @BYK - I am getting the same issue, sentry-web isn’t running and no logs are showing. When using sentry-redis, it works fine. However, when using external Redis (AWS Elasticache with transit encryption enabled) sentry-web doesn’t work. I have spun up a ubuntu pod in the same namespace and can connect to my external Redis fine so I know its not a configuration issue on the Elasticache side.
When I turn transit encryption off, sentry-web works fine. So it must be a problem with Redis connecting with SSL. Sentry-worker boots up fine, its just sentry-web which is the problem. Is there an option which I need to enable to allow Redis to connect with SSL?

Sentry Version - 21.6.1

Thank you

Ah, that explains things. We currently do not support using redis over SSL: Add support for secure redis in redis.clusters · Issue #24238 · getsentry/sentry · GitHub
