Hi! 👋🏻 I'm upgrading my self-hosted environment on DigitalOcean to 1.4.13 by using the docker exec appwrite migrate command. It failed and one of the following errors appears:

Error migrating domain premiercups.com

The thing is, I have literally never heard of this domain. 🤔 It isn't mine and I have nothing to do with it. Does anyone have an idea how this can end up in my logs? Is it something that is hardcoded in the Appwrite migration script?

TL;DR
The user is trying to upgrade their self-hosted environment on DigitalOcean using the docker exec appwrite migrate command. However, they are encountering an error related to a domain called premiercups.com, which they have never heard of and have no connection to. They are unsure how this domain ended up in their logs and if it is hardcoded in the Appwrite migration script. The user is confused about why someone would point their DNS record to their droplet and what someone would gain from it. They found it strange that when they power down their droplet, the console on that domain also goes down. The thread does not mention a solution

Vistiting the above domain shows an Appwrite console. It's very strange...

This gets even stranger.

When I power down my droplet then the console on that domain is down.

I'm starting to think that someone linked my droplet to their domain.

But how is it even possible... I'm flabbergasted.

Yes, their DNS record shows the IP of my droplet.

I don't understand anything of this. 🙃 Why would someone point their DNS record of a random domain to my droplet? What would someone gain from it? 🤔

Hmm... An explanation could be that the person who owns that domain had my IP before I got it. I have this IP for more than a year though and I migrated my Appwrite environment before without seeing this error message.

I'm running a web server on my droplet now and I left a message for the owners of the domain.

Either way, I'll lock this topic. 😊 I thought it was something related to Appwrite, but it turned out to be something completely different. 😊
