I’ve just had this issue when updating a Discourse install… I believe the cause is because when DISCOURSE_MAXMIND_LICENSE_KEY is specified in the .yml container file without a corresponding DISCOURSE_MAXMIND_ACCOUNT_ID. @tgxworld’s pull request adds the use of DISCOURSE_MAXMIND_ACCOUNT_ID in multiple places and explains the need for “Account ID”: https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker/pull/796 For me the fix was adding DISCOURSE_MAXMIND_ACCOUNT_ID and rebuilding (I rebuilt twice, but this was most likely a temporary issue).

There have been a couple of reports of a similar error recently: Cannot build on arm, Zlib::BufError during assets:precompile Rebuild fails when these plugins are present Not sure if an exact cause has been found, but one was thought to be Animated Avatars and the other Subscriptions (though Subscriptions has been rebuilding fine for me).

I also commented out the non-Discourse plugin. That didn’t solve the issue, so I don’t think it is due to a non-official plugin. I also rebooted the container host, no effect on the build outcome. In the past a networking issue was resolved by a reboot.

[image] AquaL1te: I do use MaxMind, Did you try rebuilding without it? My best explanation for this right now is some spurious error with Maxmind. But looking again at some of the errors that doesn’t make sense either.

A recent rebuild worked fine. If it fails again I’ll have a look at @DeanMarkTaylor his suggestion. Thanks everyone!

FWIW I just hit the Zlib::BufError: buffer error (Zlib::BufError) rebuild error and adding in the DISCOURSE_MAXMIND_ACCOUNT_ID and rebuilding went through first time for me. :+1:

Same here. Adding the account ID and rebuilding is working again. :slight_smile:

When the 3.3.0.beta3 version was released, I got this error inconsistently; it failed once, and then the rebuild succeeded. (Not having found this post, I worried about memory corruption! :grimacing:) Tonight, doing a rebuild, it consistently failed until I found this post and added DISCOURSE_MAXMIND_ACCOUNT_ID to the existing DISCOURSE_MAXMIND_LICENSE_KEY and then it reliably succeeded. (I assume something like that maxmind rolled out a change with a blue/green deployment and that earlier I hit different versions of a back end service each time…)

Rebuilding just failed because of MaxMind lines. It worked until now, and without any changes in app.yml it failed now. So something bigger is broken. What ever, I don’t need it under Discourse, so I let it be commented. But it is totally sure the issue is something else than just account_id.

Agreed. My rebuild failed even with DISCOURSE_MAXMIND_ACCOUNT_ID set in app.yml.

As soon as I commented out all mention of Maxmind, the rebuild succeeded.
