OK, so i have Foreman 1.8.2 running within a Debian 7.9 LXC guest and I
back it up every 4 hours using a block level backup method. I was not doing
database dumps though on a regular basis like i should have. Anyway,
yesterday I made a few mistakes and wanted to restore the whole LXC guest
from backup so that i could go back to a fully working system without all
the system changes i had performed. I renamed the old lxc guest, restored
from backup and noticed right away that postgres was not working correctly
and that I had to run /usr/lib/postgresql/9.1/bin/pg_resetxlog -f
/var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main as the postgres user to get it going again.
Ok, cool, got that fixed. Now when I try to access the web gui, the page
just sits there forever and the page never loads. Restarting apache doesnt
make a different, rebooting the entire guest doesnt help either. Im not
getting any apache log entries that show problems as well. Any suggestions
on what I can do to at least start getting errors or how to resolve this in
general? Thanks!
Nevermind. it was a corrupt database. resolved.
