Hi. I am trying to add a contribution to my user. I put the title, �I upload a picture for the project, and I set the description, but when I press "accept" it hangs in "loading" (on the top right) and after a timeout I get:
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request�GET�/web/members.
Reason:�Error reading from remote server
Thank you for your suggestions!
I am making a list of what to improve and added them (the association pharo vs. pharo association one I think is not to fix sadly...)
