DSpace 8 Frontend Issue – Error "No _links section found

[Chand Malik]

Dear Team,

I have successfully installed DSpace 8 and configured SSL. The software was working fine for 4–5 days, but after that, the frontend page started showing a 500 error.

I checked the backend, tomcat, Solr, and Apache2 services, and they all appear to be functioning properly. However, upon reviewing the frontend logs, the following error is repeatedly displayed:

No _links section found at https://library.bmu.edu.in/server/api  
0|dspace-8-angular | No _links section found at https://library.bmu.edu.in/server/api

Note:- When we configure DSpace on a local ip address, we update all configuration files to use the local IP address and run build:prod. Once that is done, we replace the configurations with the domain settings and run build:prod again. After this process, DSpace works fine for a few days.

However, after 4 days, the frontend starts showing a 500 error again. The issue seems to recur despite the corrections.
