Referring to [App Configuration (fly.toml) · Fly Docs](https://fly.io/docs/reference/configuration/#the-http_service-section) it seems there does exist a `http_service` attribute, unless I’m misunderstanding something.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

```auto
winston@stargate ~/p/sillypaste/service $ fly version
flyctl v0.0.454 linux/amd64 Commit: 8c59e3dc BuildDate: 2023-02-07T16:21:15Z
winston@stargate ~/p/sillypaste/service $ cat fly.toml
app = "sillypaste"

[build]

dockerfile = "Dockerfile"

[env]

DJANGO_ALLOWED_HOSTS = "sillypaste.winny.tech,sillypaste.fly.dev"

# [[services]]
# internal_port = 8080
# protocol = "tcp"

[http_service]
  internal_port = 8080
  force_https = true
  [http_service.concurrency]
    type = "requests"
    soft_limit = 200
    hard_limit = 250

```

Same happened with me. I used normal service with http handler and it worked.

http\_service is for v2 machines only - you may have a v1 nomad app?
