Check the logs for that deployment. Failures at that stage almost always relate to configuration issues (E.g. missing values, duplicate environment vars due to incorrect config, etc.)

Now the new error post booting is

{
  "i18nKey": "errors.http.badGateway",
  "i18nParams": {
    "status": 502
  },
  "name": "HttpError",
  "requestId": "k9DauyxKdbvvDnA6sUtijV",
  "request": {

    "method": "get"
  },
  "status": 502,
  "response": "<!DOCTYPE html>\n&lt;html&gt;\n&lt;head&gt;\n&lt;title&gt;Error&lt;/title&gt;\n&lt;style&gt;\nhtml { color-scheme: light dark; }\nbody { width: 35em; margin: 0 auto;\nfont-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; }\n&lt;/style&gt;\n&lt;/head&gt;\n&lt;body&gt;\n&lt;h1&gt;An error occurred.&lt;/h1&gt;\n&lt;p&gt;Sorry, the page you are looking for is currently unavailable.&lt;br/&gt;\nPlease try again later.&lt;/p&gt;\n&lt;p&gt;If you are the system administrator of this resource then you should check\nthe error log for details.&lt;/p&gt;\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Faithfully yours, nginx.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n&lt;/body&gt;\n&lt;/html&gt;\n"
}```

yeah, I’m guessing it bootloader failed that the rest of the deployment didn’t come up healthy.

How are you deploying Airbyte? (abctl, Helm, etc.)

docker compose on google vm

Ok, so I did not do anything and it came back up

There is something wrong for sure with latest build

Gotcha, was likely still initializing the other containers.

You can sometimes find related issues with docker-compose logs

You can also check the individual container logs (e.g. for bootloader) as they may have additional details
