@nathanaelhoun Many thanks, my friend!

[Vetgans]

Many thanks for acting so swiftly!
I cannot test it yet because development releases don't provide a linux-armv6 version.

Hum, after a few hours, the connection seems to be down again.

Logs

I tried a manual build and I get the same errors

EDIT: My bad, I forgot to load the changes to session.go and message.go. It works after changing those files too.

@nathanaelhoun my connection is fine. I'm using your build for like 11 hours straight now and haven't had any issues so far.

@jzvi12 you're probably running oom. What I did was clone the repo, modify the files and then build the container instead of using the hub image.

[ciroiriarte]

will this hit 42wim/matterbridge:stable docker image?

@mgechev123 Nice! Mine is also fine after a few days, I think it was another connection problem with my local ISP.
