Can you check either your browser console (Network tab) or your Nginx server logs to see what URL is returning a 404? On the surface this appears a configuration matter, but let's confirm for sure just in case.

Are you using the recommended Nginx config from the Admin Manual and has it been kept up-to-date?

kesselb commented 7 months ago

Moved to updater repo. Most likely, the web server sent a timeout response, and we are not handling this situation to well.
Update via cli to workaround web server timeouts.

The screenshot has a generic 404 response sent from Nginx though. I'd expect a 5xx or something if things were timing out?

@DalekDave Please provide your updater.log if you can.
