[תמונה] Phapawit_Hirunsathitphon: discourse/base 2.0.20240825-0027 9dc96b6115cb 7 months ago 3.38GB Yes, as I suspected it appears you got somehow stuck in an old image. What is the output of cd /var/discourse git pull ?

What is your server memory? & Do you have swap file setup?

[תמונה] Heliosurge: What is your server memory? & Do you have swap file setup? Hi there. here is our memory and swap information free -h total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 3.8Gi 2.1Gi 274Mi 275Mi 1.5Gi 1.2Gi Swap: 2.0Gi 117Mi 1.9Gi

I can only guess that the cause of the error is either the big jump in versions - about 7 months of updates - or the large number of plugins. The first thing I’d try is to repeat the command line update. I think this can help, and it’s not just superstition! The second thing I’d try is commenting all your plugins out of the yml file, try the update again. If successful, you can bring them back, perhaps all at once or perhaps more carefully. But possibly someone else will have more informed advice. (In my forum, now at 3.5.0.beta2-dev, I have node version v22.14.0)

Can you please share the output of docker images ? It appears you are stuck in an old container image somehow.

[תמונה] Falco: Can you please share the output of docker images ? It appears you are stuck in an old container image somehow. Hi there.

Now that you are up to date, try a rebuild.

these are the steps that I used to upgrade discourse. it works @Falco @Ed_S Thank you for your help cd /var/discourse git pull origin main ./launcher rebuild app

This solution (followed by a rebuild) worked for me as well. Thank you! Sheila Ruth
