hey Christian! thanks for taking a look here. yes, this is a legacy install of this product that is in need of some maintenance. We determined that getting the install migrated onto docker first would make upgrading reviewboard and its dependencies easier (our current deployment is a manual install, so managing dependency upgrades turned out to be a real pain, especially from python 2.7 -> 3). The error I posted is from the docker image for 3.0.24, using the same S3 config that works today on our manual install on 3.0.20.
I had found that setting (admin -> general settings -> server url), and updated it to point to the correct user-facing URL already - it didn't seem to change any behavior here. The only part of the deployment that knows the nginx URL specifically is the nginx host config - there's no sense in which reviewboard would have access to that, right? especially not in the docker world where these processes don't even run on the same container. So I'm at a loss for how reviewboard would build URLs that reference it. appreciate any thoughts, -Ruby On Tuesday, February 25, 2025 at 7:11:51 PM UTC-5 Christian Hammond wrote: > Hi Ruby, > > I’m sorry for the wait.
