Troubleshooting
Kindling Falls Back To crun
If /dev/kvm is missing or unavailable, Kindling uses crun instead of Cloud Hypervisor. That is expected, not a startup failure.
kindling serve Cannot Reach PostgreSQL
Check:
- which DSN source is being used
- whether the database exists
- whether credentials are correct
- whether the schema has been applied
Builds Fail Early
Confirm required host tools are onPATH, especially:

Runtime URLs Are Not Reachable
If the URL shown by Kindling is not actually openable from the browser you care about, check the advertised host configuration and the host’s firewall or ingress shape.Dashboard Talks To The Wrong API
If the dashboard is deployed with the wrong baked-in API origin, browser fetches will go to the wrong place even if the server itself is healthy. Rebuild dashboard assets with the correctDASHBOARD_API_URL.
