I am running Debian 11 updated and upgraded on VPS server. I apologize if I have left anything out as I am just now getting started here. I will immediately get back here if anything else is needed. ACrowe

can you run the following commands and test again?

chown -R plume:plume /var/log/plume
chmod -R 640 /var/log/plume
systemctl restart plume.service

A couple of things to note. I cannot figure out which password to use for my server. I tried the pass I entered for the yunohost installed when on the command line but it did not work. I also considered that my passwords were to complex, could find no info on disallowed characters so entered a short phrase with all letters rather than symbols and numbers. That didnā€™t work either. I went ahead and tried to install plume again and got this readout before yunohost server stalled after thirty minutes. It follows:

Installing plumeā€¦
Provisioning sourcesā€¦
Provisioning portsā€¦
Provisioning system_userā€¦
Provisioning install_dirā€¦
Provisioning permissionsā€¦
Provisioning aptā€¦
Provisioning databaseā€¦
Storing installation settingsā€¦
Setting up source filesā€¦
Configuring NGINX web serverā€¦
Adding a config fileā€¦
Making setupā€¦
Configuring a systemd serviceā€¦
Starting a systemd serviceā€¦
(this may take some time)
The service plume didnā€™t fully executed the action start before the timeout.
Please find here an extract of the end of the log of the service plume:

I cannot make heads or tails of this but it appears that the software on yunohost is not quite right? I am not new to this but I have always installed from command line with success, after trial and error. Iā€™m at a loss. ACrowe
