+## Description:
+
+Last week, during a pairing session, Zach and I attempted to set up GN3 on tux01 following the provided channels file:
+
+```
+(list (channel
+       (name 'gn-bioinformatics)
+       (url "https://git.genenetwork.org/guix-bioinformatics")
+       (branch "master")
+       (commit
+	"25cb9ad70155a08c088ff28bf54c06e12293105b"))
+      (channel
+       (name 'guix-forge)
+       (url "https://git.systemreboot.net/guix-forge/")
+       (branch "main")
+       (introduction
+	(make-channel-introduction
+	 "0432e37b20dd678a02efee21adf0b9525a670310"
+	 (openpgp-fingerprint
+	  "7F73 0343 F2F0 9F3C 77BF  79D3 2E25 EE8B 6180 2BB3")))))
+
+```
+
+...  and execution steps:
+
+```
+source /var/guix/profiles/per-user/aruni/current-guix/etc/profile
+
+guix pull -C channels.scm -p ~/.guix-extra-profiles/genenetwork
+
+.  .guix-extra-profiles/genenetwork/etc/profile
+
+guix install genenetwork3 genenetwork2 -p ~/.guix-extra-profiles/genenetwork
+
+git clone https://github.com/genenetwork/genenetwork3.git
+
+cd genenetwork3/
+
+/export2/local/home/zas1024/gn3-zach/genenetwork3/run_dev.sh run --port=8090
+```
+
+Despite our efforts, attempting a CURL on GN3 using Zach's username consistently resulted in an empty response.
+
+Even when Zach switched to my user (bonfacem) and repeated the steps with my ".guix-extra-profile", the CURL still produced an empty result.  We tried various troubleshooting steps, such as running the commands in a shell with no specific environment set up and using su to switch to bonfacem from Zach's userspace, but the issue persists.
