Docker images build returning 500 internal server error on Ubuntu server [closed]

I am trying to build a docker image on an ubuntu server and I'm getting a 500 internal server error.

root@vultr:~/tuboh-api# docker-compose up --buildPulling tuboh-db (mysql:latest)...ERROR: received unexpected HTTP status: 500 Server Error

It has been working before, at least more than 6 months now. Made some changes to my code and tried to rebuild and I was getting that error. I thought it was a problem with docker registry and left it to try again this afternoon but same thing.

I tried to get manifests of different images and I was getting the same error. Tried building my images one by one - with both docker and docker-compose, and I was getting the same error. So, I tried with my local server and found it was working fine. I have pruned using docker system prune --all but I'm still getting the same error. Restarted the server didn't work. I don't want to reset or delete my files because there is data in the database volume.
