Update: I did a proper bootstrap, destroy, start with a 2-container setup and now the reported version numbers are updated and the Admin UI is rendering again.
The rest of the post remains for posterity.
I’m experiencing what may be a similar issue. The Admin interface loads, but only displays the tabs at the top and the main content section is blank:

Upgrade Process (2-container)
I originally started experiencing the issue after trying to complete the upgrade from within the Discourse Admin UI where I was shown that I needed to update the Docker Manager first.
After updating the Docker Manager, I started experiencing that issue, so I SSH’ed into the box and did a manual (2 container) update for just web_only:
cd /var/discourse
git pull
./launcher bootstrap web_only
./launcher stop web_only && ./launcher start web_only
^^^^
⚠️ This is wrong! Use destroy per below. ⚠️
Curiously, the /about.json path still shows I’m running 3.4.0.beta4-dev which is what I thought I started from as the original email was for an upgrade from 3.4.0.beta4-dev to 3.5.0.beta1.
I double checked the git log and it seems like at least the discourse_docker is on the latest commit 3715498fc188d60c0b579443383c4e973cf26f59 at the time of writing this.
Safe-Mode Works
I wasn’t aware of safe mode, but apparently the issue doesn’t occur if I disable ALL client side plugins.
Disabling only unofficial client-side plugin customizations does not resolve the issue as I tried each combination to narrow things down.
| Option | Result |
|---|---|
no_unofficial_plugins |
 |
no_plugins |
 |
no_themes |
|
Disabling docker_manager doesn’t help
I tried commenting out the docker_manager plugin under hooks/after_code, then rebuilding the web_only container + stop && start, but the client side error message noted above still remains.
It does introduce another error message which visiting the Admin page of this.class.create is not a function, but perhaps that’s expected with the underlying docker_manager plugin disabled for this test:
loader.js:247 Uncaught (in promise) Error: Could not find module `discourse/lib/decorators` imported from `discourse/plugins/docker_manager/discourse/routes/update`

Again, using safe mode with no_plugins works around the issue temporarily.
