Netbox process continously exit with code 0

[arunkumarviswanathan]

Hi,

I'm getting the following Netbox exit message and Netbox startup continuously in the Netbox container, and as per the log the NextBox process is getting killed and a new Netbox process is getting started.

Because of the above issue, the Netbox is unstable and throwing 503 error more frequently. We are not able to have a smooth UI or API experience.
Also, the Error/Notice message is mentioned as an expected one during the Netbox startup in the troubleshooting guide (https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox-docker/wiki/Troubleshooting). Still, it is happening continuously in my setup and not allowing to use the Netbox properly.

Any help or suggestions could help us to fix this error.

I appreciate any help you can provide.

Looks like that there is a idle_timeout setting which is causing this behaviour. The nginx unit webserver is shutting down the application. If you do a request afterwards the app must be started again which is taking some time.
