My forum crashed when I was updating the software and has now totally disapeared. I get the following error messages… " Oops The software powering this discussion forum encountered an unexpected problem. We apologize for the inconvenience.

I also just upgraded and my container is not building and then crashing. It is very unfortunate.

Don’t restart it rebuilding when it gets stuck as it crashed the whole thing when I did it…

same behavior here. I was seeing errors with workers, restarted it…crashed…tried to rebuild. perpetual crashing now /var/discourse# ./launcher rebuild app x86_64 arch detected.

no…there is a zombie container that ./launcher rebuild app creates, which gives the output above. This is what the container looks like. It starts building from the discourse base image but then hangs, as mentioned above. It does not register as the discourse app. /var/discourse# docker ps -a CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES 02ae320b72a0 discourse/base:2.0.20240825-0027 "/bin/bash -c '/usr/…" 7 minutes ago Up 7 minutes sleepy_driscoll When I run ./launcher start app it errors because it tries to start a new app and PSQL is running on 5432 on the zombie container. If I delete the zombie container (and/or images), then it creates a new container and hangs with the logs the same way from my previous post very stressful and unfortunate. I don’t know how we got to this point. I have disabled all plugins in my app.yaml and tried to rebuild

oh okay…so this is a thing for at least a handful of people :frowning: [image] PostgreSQL Stuck During Rebuilding Self-hosting Hello everyone, I’m running into an issue with PostgreSQL startup issue when I tried to rebuild my app, and I’m hoping to get some help.

See [image] PostgreSQL Stuck During Rebuilding Self-hosting @here It looks like older versions of Docker is incompatible with the newer Docker image which we have released. Here are the steps to fix the problem: apt update apt install docker.io cd /var/discourse ./launcher rebuild app I’ve also bumped our launcher script to abort if we do not at least detect Docker 20.10.0 running. for the solution.

If you do a

./launcher start app

will it come back up?
