Hey @nemanjac . Thanks for reporting this. Are you still getting this issue with the latest version (v1.1.5) by chance?

Sorry @michael I was away for short vacation here.  
I just checked again

> 2021/05/04 15:34:18 [emerg] 63#63: io\_setup() failed (38: Function not implemented)

This line still comes in error reports.  
I’m not experiencing blockages any more, which is good. But error remains.

Thanks @nemanjac,

Our developers are looking into this but haven’t been able to reproduce it just yet. We’ll keep trying and we’ll update you here once we know more.

Hi @jeff  
Sounds good.

It is running fine now. It seems that the error is not causing any issues anymore.  
It might have been something I did, as I was testing series of scripts that can customize docker fpm and nginx automatically.

Cheers,  
Nemanja

Thanks for the update! Let us know if it happens again. We’ll keep this open for a little while longer in case you find anything else here.
