Hi,

I updated the image Docker to version 0.5.4 and I have this error in the logs:

2026-02-12T20:15:14.399199Z  WARN conduwuit_service::announcements: Failed to check for announcements e=Request error: error sending request for url (https://continuwuity.org/.well-known/continuwuity/announcements)

I use Element and I have same error log in Admin Room.

Thanks.

Yes, I realize that it's to display something like that, but have I overlooked something that's preventing it from working?

This also caused me pain when first provisioning. I wasn't sure if there was a problem on the remote/announcement end, or if it was an indication that something was broken on my Continuwuity implementation.
