There’s a lot of missing log output there if the instance was operating normally enough to show the first-time startup dialog. Did the server restart, or did someone restart Metabase without knowing how to start it properly for your installation? For reference, you must start Metabase using these Java options (you can add more, like -Xmx to set the max heap size, if needed): java --add-opens java.base/java.nio=ALL-UNNAMED -jar metabase.jar
