502 Bad Gateway After adding custom template

[kmafoudji]

Hello Team, I followed the answers provided on post #40 to make slight changes to the kerkoapp home page. For example, to change the color of the nav bar, I did this:

• created a "custom-theme" folder and added a layout.html.jinja2 file (content taken from the following layout file: [layout.html.jinja2](https://github.com/whiskyechobravo/kerko/blob/main/src/kerko/templates/kerko /layout.html.jinja2))
• modified line 37 of the layout file like this :
• added the following lines in config.toml: [kerko.templates] layout = "custom-theme/layout.html.jinja2" After restarting kerko I receive the error 502 Bad Gateway

What did I miss? Thank you for your help

Hello team, Any Help on this ?

You didn't show how the template was modified. Have you tried running the app with the flask --debug run command? The console should then display error messages, and that should help you understand what's happening.

Thank you for your answer. I'm giving more détails here :

• I changed nav class="navbar navbar-expand-md navbar-dark bg-dark d-print-none" by nav class="navbar navbar-expand-md navbar-warning bg-warning d-print-none" :

• The layout is placed in a folder "custom-theme" :

• And called in my config file :

[kerko.templates] layout = "custom-theme/layout.html.jinja2"

After that i runned the following commands : flask --debug kerko clean everything flask --debug kerko sync At the first time i get this message :

I runned a second time the sync command, which executed correctly until the end. I stopped and started kerko. On my page I got this :

Results after running flask --debug run :

It works if I comment the the 2 lines and restart kerko : [kerko.templates] layout = "custom-theme/layout.html.jinja2"

Assuming that ~/kerkoapp is where the wsgi.py file is located, it looks like your template should be in ~/kerkoapp/kerkoapp/templates/custom-theme instead of ~/kerkoapp/custom-theme.

If that still doesn't work, then the idea of running the app in debug mode was to use the app at http://127.0.0.1:5000, and check the console for error messages (if you're running it on a remote server, you could use the curl command to perform requests). If there are no errors, then the issue probably lies in your service configuration, or your nginx configuration.

It's working after i moved my template in the correct location : ~/kerkoapp/kerkoapp/templates/custom-them Thank you will go on my customization.
