Service down / container restarting

Docker
Symptom
docker ps shows a service Exited or Restarting; dashboard tile red.
Investigate
docker logs the failing container. Common causes: bad config after upload, full disk, corrupted volume after power loss.
Fix
docker compose -f /opt/maxedge/docker-compose.yml ps
docker logs --tail 200 <service>
docker restart <service>
# full stack:
docker compose -f /opt/maxedge/docker-compose.yml up -d
If the crash followed a config change, roll back: Dashboard → Configuration → History → Restore previous.

Steps

  1. docker ps -a — note which container and its exit code.
  2. docker logs --tail 200 <service>. Config parse error → roll back the config.
  3. df -h — full disk kills every service. Prune and restart.
  4. Power loss and a corrupted volume: docker compose … down, move the volume aside, up -d; the store rebuilds from the PLC (history since the crash is lost).
  5. Verify all services Up and the dashboard tiles green.
