I’m a beginner at web development and I just deployed my first app to Fly. I can’t tell if I did it correctly or not because my newly created app has a Service Interruption error from 8 days ago:
We are performing emergency maintenance on a host some of your apps instances are running on. Apps may be unavailable until the maintenance is completed.
Could someone help me figure out how resolve this issue so I can test my app? Can I change the host or implement another workaround?
Thanks for the suggestion! I gave it a try and there’s no change. I’ll try making it as a new app, but if it still doesn’t work, I’ll just try waiting a few weeks. I appreciate the advice!
No, I signed up to Fly a few days ago and deployed the app for the first time yesterday. I wasn’t even on Fly when the maintenance was supposed to have started. It’s very possible I deployed incorrectly, though - this is my first time deploying an app to a server.
It looks like all the errors have changed. It’s still not working, but redeploying seems to have done something, at least. The status of the app has changed from suspended to deployed. The Service Interruption warning is still there, but the errors it’s showing now all seem to be issues with my setup. I’ll troubleshoot them on my own; the whole point of this project was to learn how to deploy to a server properly. Thanks again for your help!
From my experience my apps usually don’t survive this, so I don’t see any value in waiting. It might be gone forever.
I do a fly machine clone [machine_id] as soon as I see this message (see details on fly machine clone · Fly Docs) . It creates a copy of my app instance on a working host. Then i destroy the failed instance with fly machine destroy [machine_id]
