I think what caused the error to show up for me was the Progressive Web App extension

    My forum break and he's never back online after reset.

    SKevo I haven't seen this error on non-freeflarum environments. I would recommend adding a listener for extension enabled/disabled that clears the cache as a local extender in y'all skeleton.

      askvortsov Flarum should already natively clear the Flarum cache on extension enable/disable, no?

      Or maybe it has something to do with browser cache as well?

        I will open a new thread and ask how it can be done, since I don't know PHP/how to extend Flarum

        clarkwinkelmann Flarum should already natively clear the Flarum cache on extension enable/disable, no?

        No, AFAIK that was never the case (not sure if beta.16 changed this)

        Or maybe it has something to do with browser

        That's very unlikely, since the error is logged server-side, and after cache is cleared, you can access the forum without any problems, without the need to also clear browser cache

        Hi all,
        I activated the progressive web app extension, mostly just to check it out, and now my forum only display this message:

        Flarum encountered a boot error. Details have been logged to the Flarum log file.

        My forum is https://forum.asnuaps.it, any help fixing it?

        Thanks!

          arteteco fixed, look a few posts above. This error is very common and it can be fixed by clearing the cache. I have tried to setup a listener to clear the cache automatically on extension enable/disable, but since I have very little PHP experience and spare time to debug it, I haven't made any progress on that.

          For now, if anyone else experiences an error upon enabling PWA, just ping me anywhere and I will clear the cache for you

            SKevo thanks for the prompt action!
            I uploaded the logos for PWA and everything seems properly set up but I still can't receive notifications (tested on chrome in android and ubuntu). Just to help me understand why, is there some known issues with push notifications in freeflarum?

            Thanks!

              arteteco there shouldn't be any issues as far as I know, but I haven't tested it since beta.15. I do not have much free time at the moment, so I haven't really invested it in FreeFlarum to be honest. That means that even if there is a bug, we might not be aware of it.

              Also keep in mind that if there is a bug in Flarum or an extension, we are in 99 % cases powerless here because we are not affiliated with Flarum or any extension author

              please add "follow users" extension for the extention list .. thanks

                SKevo, Hi, I am also experiencing the same problem with PWA

                Flarum encountered a boot error. Details have been logged to the Flarum log file.

                My forum is https://bullworth.games, thanks 🙂

                  is it possible to migrate self-hosted flaurum to Freeflaurum.com instance?

                    TBag please post the request to our GitHub issues page: https://github.com/gwillem/freeflarum.com/issues

                    blckdot fixed, sorry for the delay

                    Sharanyan not at the moment because there is no way to automatically import a database dump - but I am willing to do it manually for you, if you want that (and when I find some free time). I wonder - why would you want to move from self-hosting to a free service? Your options will become more limited, and self-hosting ensures you to have full control over your forum

                      Enabled the Progressive Web App plugin and encountered the kiss of death: "Flarum encountered a boot error"

                      May I ask for some assistance? Page is https://hah.flarum.cloud.

                      Thanks for any help you can provide. This is a great tool, and allowed me to explore Flarum liberally.
