Hey Discourse team! I’m trying to run Discourse Docker on Ubuntu on stable (v2.8.8) and I’m running into the following error: rake aborted! NoMethodError: undefined method `min_tags_from_required_group' for # /src/lib/seed_data/categories.rb:114:in `create_category' /src/lib/seed_data/categories.rb:15:in `block (2 levels) in create' /src/lib/seed_data/categories.rb:15:in `each' /src/lib/seed_data/categories.rb:15:in `block in create' /src/lib/seed_data/categories.rb:14:in `create' (eval):6:in `block (2 levels) in run_file' /src/lib/tasks/db.rake:225:in `block (2 levels) in ' /src/lib/distributed_mutex.rb:33:in `block in synchronize' /src/lib/distributed_mutex.rb:29:in `synchronize' /src/lib/distributed_mutex.rb:29:in `synchronize' /src/lib/distributed_mutex.rb:14:in `synchronize' /src/lib/tasks/db.rake:210:in `block in ' Tasks: TOP => db:migrate (See full trace by running task with --trace) Additional Info of what I’ve done so far: What I’ve done so far to get here: sudo -s git clone -b v2.8.8 https://github.com/discourse/discourse.git chmod -R 2777 ./discourse cd discourse I ran into some bookmark issues eariler so I had to: nano db/migrate/20220104053343_add_bookmark_polymorphic_columns.rb and pasted this: discourse/db/migrate/20220322024216_add_bookmark_polymorphic_columns.rb at cd817a436574cd00f0bae339ec0c4fe2fcf2bb50 · discourse/discourse · GitHub Then when I run: d/boot_dev -p --init I get the error about min_tags_from_required_groups. Can anyone assist?

Is this a development installation or a standard install? If you’re trying to run on production then you’d set the version to stable in your app.yml. You wouldn’t clone discourse as you indicated. Do you have any plugins?

Hey @pfaffman , Thanks for responding! This is a development instance, so I don’t have the app.yml No plugins installed, I was just hoping to run a development instance on stable on Ubuntu.

Ah! I see now. Perhaps I shouldn’t post on the middle of the night. Was there a database before you switched to stable? maybe you need to rake db:drop db:create db:migrate You shouldn’t need to cherry pick a migration.

Hey @pfaffman , Hope you had an awesome weekend! Thanks for responding, will test this today and get back to you!

Hmm. Maybe just delete and recreate those databases yourself and just migrate it with the rake task. Or give the discourse user rights to create and destroy (I think that’s easier).

Hey @pfaffman , I’m not too familiar on the process of giving the discourse user rights to create and destroy unfortunately. In the first option though, are you saying I should just delete all these databases, then run d/rake db:create db:migrate ? Is that correct?

Google “postgres user roles” or something like that. That’s what I do. It’s something like this su - postgres psql grant all rights to usee 'discoursev; But that’s probably wrong

Hey @pfaffman , Thanks for your help so far! I just want to take a step back before going further into troubleshooting psql, I’m mainly aiming to just run the Discourse docker development environment (on stable) on Ubuntu, which runs fine and as expected on Mac. Shouldn’t I be able to do this without these table & migration errors? When I attempt to do a clean install I get the bookmark error, and after resolving that I get this NoMethodError, and now InsufficientPrivilege error. Initially I thought it was because I was on test-passed then switching to stable caused the issue, but even in a clean empty Ubuntu instance, the NoMethodError still pops up, this is without any prior DBs exisiting, just did Step #1 and Step #2 here: [image] Install Discourse for development using Docker Developer Guides Developing using Docker Since Discourse runs in Docker, you should be able to run Discourse directly from your source directory using a Discourse development container. white_check_mark Pros: No need to install any system dependencies, no configuration needed at all for setting up a development environment quickly. x Cons: Will be slightly slower than the native dev environment on Ubuntu, and much slower than a native install on MacOS. See also Developing Discourse using a Dev Container … Are you able to install stable on Ubuntu with no issues?

Bumping this thread! Wondering if anyone else is successful in running a developer environment on stable version on Ubuntu.
