@EBernhardson Please help. For whatever reason https://github.com/wikimedia/wikimedia-discovery-dashboard works.

But https://github.com/wikimedia/wikimedia-discovery-experimental makes http://discovery-experimental.wmflabs.org return 502 Bad Gateway error.

I don't know why. Everything is basically identical. I spent all day yesterday trying to make it work but couldn't.

(The instance: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Nova_Resource:Discovery-experimental.shiny-r.eqiad.wmflabs)

i'll look into this this morning between meetings. An actual solution will probably take till some time this afternnoon due to ~1.5 hours of meetings this morning

Change 257645 had a related patch set uploaded (by EBernhardson):
Add missing directories

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/257645

The attached patch should fix the issue, I've already tried this out on the discovery-experiemental server and everything looks to be happy now.

Mostly i found this by looking for shiny logs (find /var/log | grep shiny), and then looking at /var/log/upstart/shiny-server.log which contained the following:

/bin/sh: 1: /bin/sh: cannot create /srv/experimental/log/shiny-server.log: Directory nonexistent
