Hello, I am running a self-hosted Discourse website and I always update the website by the “Upgrade Discourse” button on the admin area. Today I was not able to enter the admin area and was getting this message, “Oops! That page doesn’t exist or is private”. I managed to fix the issue by rebuilding Discourse and now the interface is upgraded, but I can’t find “Upgrade Discourse” button. [Screenshot 2024-07-02 164752] Can anyone help me fix this issue? Thank you

Just as a Hail Mary now you’re seeing double headers, do you have cloudflare? [image] Resolving "SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier #..." caused by Cloudflare Auto Minify Sysadmins Cloudflare’s ‘Auto Minify’ feature will break recent versions of Discourse. In the browser console, you will see an error like: Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier '#...' Cloudflare are aware of the issue, and have added this message to their dashboard: Note: Please note that this feature may not be fully compatible with certain newer CSS and JS language features, which could potentially affect the functionality of the site Unfortunately, despite this critical issue, the feature wi…

Just to check, when you rebuilt your site, did you remove the docker manager plugin?

I just rebuild using the following SSH commands, cd /var/discourse sudo ./launcher rebuild app

I checked the plugins file cd /var/discourse nano containers/app.yml [Screenshot 2024-07-02 172420]

That should open your app.yml for editing rather than tell you it’s not accessible. You may need to use sudo nano containers/app.yml The plugin section is towards the bottom and looks a bit like this: ## Plugins go here ## see https://meta.discourse.org/t/19157 for details hooks: after_code: - exec: cd: $home/plugins cmd: - git clone https://github.com/discourse/docker_manager.git - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-adplugin - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-akismet - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-assign - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-cakeday - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-calendar - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-category-experts - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-data-explorer - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-docs - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-encrypt - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-follow Though if you haven’t opened that and edited any out docker manager should be included automatically. Perhaps there’s more clues in your /logs?

[Screenshot 2024-07-02 173909] I can’t find anything in the logs [Screenshot 2024-07-02 174110] I have restarted the server and rebuild Discourse again, but I can’t get “Upgrade Discourse” button back again.

[Screenshot from 2024-07-02 21-52-42] Thank you for your response. Now when I click on the Admin, I am getting the following message, “Oops! That page doesn’t exist or is private.” Maybe my website is compromised, Is there a way to restore my Admin privileges?

Do you see the admin menu? You can cd /var/discourse ./launcher enter app rake admin:create

[Screenshot 2024-07-02 223002] I am able to log in to the admin area again, and I have rested the password, but I can’t find the upgrade discourse button. When I navigate directly to [MySite]/admin/update I get the following message “Oops! That page doesn’t exist or is private.”
