Hello I host Ghost on a server myself.
Ubuntu 24.04 runs on it with a cloud panel.
The installation has only been running for some time now, he shows me the following under Network in the Ghost Admin: Loading Interrupted
They say life is a series of trials and tribulations. This moment right here? It’s a tribulation. Our app was supposed to load, and yet here we are. Loadless. Click Back to the Dashboard to Try Again.
Why is it?
Here are a few more information:
Version: 6.0.0
Environment: production
Database: mysql8
Mail: Direct
Node: 22 LTS
Here is my Vhost Config:
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
listen 443 quic;
listen 443 ssl;
listen [::]:443 quic;
listen [::]:443 ssl;
http2 on;
http3 off;
{{ssl_certificate_key}}
{{ssl_certificate}}
server_name www.mr-chili.de;
return 301 https://mr-chili.de$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;

}
}
Network is ActivityPub. There are multiple recent threads that include what configuration is needed - please take a look 
I really have no idea what to look for.
Do I need to change something in the Vhost, or do I need to open another port?
The Ghost CLI GitHub repo has nginx templates that include what you need for ActivityPub, specifically for proxying /.ghost/activitypub/* and /.well-known/(webfinger|nodeinfo)
I add this in my VHOST and i became this Error:
Vhost is not valid, error message: nginx: [warn] the “listen … http2” directive is deprecated, use the “http2” directive instead in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/custom-domain.conf:4 nginx: [warn] the “listen … http2” directive is deprecated, use the “http2” directive instead in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/custom-domain.conf:5 nginx: [warn] “ssl_stapling” ignored, no OCSP responder URL in the certificate “/etc/nginx/ssl-certificates/cloud.mr-chili.de.crt” nginx: [warn] “ssl_stapling” ignored, no OCSP responder URL in the certificate “/etc/nginx/ssl-certificates/custom-domain.crt” nginx: [warn] “ssl_stapling” ignored, no OCSP responder URL in the certificate “/etc/nginx/ssl-certificates/dockge.mr-chili.de.crt” nginx: [warn] “ssl_stapling” ignored, no OCSP responder URL in the certificate “/etc/nginx/ssl-certificates/mr-chili.de.crt” nginx: [warn] “ssl_stapling” ignored, no OCSP responder URL in the certificate “/etc/nginx/ssl-certificates/mr-chili.de.crt” nginx: [warn] “ssl_stapling” ignored, no OCSP responder URL in the certificate “/etc/nginx/ssl-certificates/umami.mr-chili.de.crt” nginx: [emerg] unknown “header_content_type_options” variable nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed
How can i Fix this in my Cloudpanel…
Use the default CloudPanel Vhost. Add only these blocks:
location ~ /.ghost/activitypub/* {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
add_header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff";
proxy_ssl_server_name on;
proxy_pass https://ap.ghost.org;
}
location ~ /.well-known/(webfinger|nodeinfo) {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
add_header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff";
proxy_ssl_server_name on;
proxy_pass https://ap.ghost.org;
}
The error is occurring because of this line: add_header X-Content-Type-Options $header_content_type_options;
@Mr-Chili Please specify in the question title that you use CloudPanel
Oh, sorry, great, everything’s working now, but I don’t have a profile. When I click on profile, this error message pops up again.
Am I doing something else wrong?
