Troubleshooting

The first stop when something is wrong. Skim the section that matches your symptom.

Login and account

"Invalid credentials" but I'm certain the password is right

• Caps lock check — the username field is case-sensitive (operator_id, lowercase by convention).
• Password manager autofill sometimes inserts a trailing space; click the field and press End to verify nothing is past the visible characters.
• If you recently changed your password and it isn't taking, double-check you typed the new one — the in-app Change Password form takes effect immediately. If you're locked out entirely, use the email password-reset flow instead (this requires SMTP to be configured; see below).

"Please verify your email" loop

• Check spam / promotions folders for the verification mail.
• The verification link expires after 60 minutes (default EMAIL_TOKEN_TTL); from /login use Resend verification if available, or request a fresh registration with the same email.
• Verification email only sends when SMTP is configured (EMAIL_* env vars). Email delivery is off by default, so on an instance without SMTP no verification mail will arrive — contact the operator of your Atlas instance.

"Session expired" mid-workflow

• Your refresh token reached its hard limit. Sign in again — your watchlist, alerts, and saved screens are intact.
• Frequent expirations usually mean clock skew on a self-hosted backend; verify NTP on the host.

Workspace and panels

Dashboard renders blank with the sidebar visible

• Open the browser DevTools → Network tab; reload. If /api/me returns 401, your session expired (sign in again). If it returns 5xx, the backend is unreachable — check the backend logs.
• A failed Cesium tile load (the globe) doesn't blank the dashboard, but a missing VITE_API_URL build var does. Confirm the build was run with the right env.

A panel is empty / "no data"

• Confirm the data provider for that panel is configured. The Market panel needs EODHD_API_KEY; the Globe AIS layer needs AIS_ENABLED=true and AISSTREAM_API_KEY (AIS is off by default). See API keys.
• For symbols specifically: the symbol may not be indexed by the upstream provider. Try a different ticker to isolate.

Switching panels feels laggy

• The first switch loads bundle chunks (route-based code splitting). Subsequent switches are instant.
• For a sustained slowdown, check the browser console for a runaway re-render loop and refresh.

"Failed to fetch" toasts

• The frontend cannot reach the backend. In dev, confirm the backend is running on the URL pointed at by VITE_API_URL (default http://127.0.0.1:8000). In prod, check the reverse proxy.

Globe

Pins are missing for a vessel/aircraft I expect to see

• Layer might be off — check the AIS / ADS-B toggle in the right rail (v / a shortcuts).
• Sub-bar filter might be too tight (Saved-only, name filter) — clear filters.
• Coverage gap or transponder off — see Data delays & limits.

Globe is slow / dropping frames

• Cesium prefers a discrete GPU. On integrated graphics with hundreds of pins, drop the layer with the most points or zoom in to cluster.
• Browser hardware acceleration must be on — check browser settings.

"Cesium token invalid" overlay

• VITE_CESIUM_ION_TOKEN is missing or stale. Get a fresh token from Cesium Ion and rebuild the frontend.

Market panel

Quote is permanently "delayed"

• The exchange or plan may only provide delayed data upstream; the badge is correct. Quotes come from EODHD (the primary source); the optional Finnhub integration adds US-equity realtime when configured. Try a different exchange to confirm.
• Quotes reach the browser by periodic REST polling (~30s), not a live stream — if a value looks stale, wait for the next poll or refresh.

Fundamentals show "—" for many fields

• EODHD coverage gap on emerging markets, micro-caps, or recently-IPO'd names. Try a major-exchange peer to confirm.

Chart shows a strange spike that disappears on reload

• A single bad tick from upstream. EODHD typically corrects on the next pull; the cache TTL is short (~5 min for intraday).

Alerts

Alert created but never fires

• Verify state in the alerts panel — tracking is normal (within 1% of trigger), inactive is paused.
• For market-hours alerts, confirm the symbol's market is currently open.
• For email delivery, check your spam folder and verify the address in Settings → Profile.

Alerts firing constantly on a closed position

• They don't auto-prune. Disarm or delete from the alerts panel.

AI chat

Empty / generic responses with no panel context

• The AI grounds in your active panel. Switch to or focus the panel you want it to read before asking.
• News/transcript summaries silently truncate beyond the model's context window — narrow the screen or transcript section.

"AI is offline"

• Backend cannot reach the configured model provider. Check backend logs for the AI route.

Search

Symbol search returns nothing

• Check the asset class pill (All / Equity / FX / Crypto / Commodity) — it's filtering.
• Fuzzy name search needs ~3 characters; very short queries return only exact-prefix matches.

Subscription and billing

Plan upgraded in Stripe but Atlas still gates the feature

• The webhook may not have fired yet — wait ~30 seconds and reload.
• If still stuck, check your subscription status in Settings → Subscription; a sign-out/sign-in often refreshes the cached plan.
• For self-hosted instances, see Stripe billing — debugging a desync.

Stripe portal won't open

• Pop-up blocked. Allow pop-ups for the Atlas origin and retry.

Self-hosted specifics

Backend won't boot — KeyError: SECRET_KEY

• That env var is required. Generate a long random string and set it before the boot command.

Backend logs failed to connect to redis

• REDIS_URL is wrong or Redis isn't up. The cache layer is required for rate limiting and session refresh — Atlas won't run without it.

Migrations fail mid-run

• Don't manually edit the schema. Check the failed migration's SQL, fix the underlying problem (usually a manually-edited row), and re-run alembic upgrade head.

CORS errors in browser console for prod

• The frontend's VITE_API_URL must match the backend's allowed origins. In a single-domain deploy, set both to relative paths or the same canonical hostname.

Still stuck

Open an issue with:

• What you did.
• What you expected.
• What happened (with browser console + backend logs trimmed to the relevant ~30 lines).
• Atlas version (from Changelog or /health endpoint).
• Browser + OS.

For security-sensitive reports, follow the disclosure path in SECURITY.md and do not post a public issue.
