It just so happens that we haven’t updated Discourse in a very long time. We’re currently at v2.8.5. I recently discovered that Discourse is well beyond version 3. I’d like to update to the current version, but for now, I’d like to at least update to the latest version 2.8.x - 2.8.14. And here’s a huge problem. When I rebuild, Discourse updates the base image, and I get this error: FAILED -------------------- Pups::ExecError: grep -q 'outlets/before-server' /etc/nginx/conf.d/discourse.conf || ( >&2 echo 'The "before-server" Nginx outlet is missing.

For more information, see https://meta.discourse.org/t/373574 --- ** FAILED TO BOOTSTRAP ** please scroll up and look for earlier error messages, there may be more than one. ./discourse-doctor may help diagnose the problem. The plugins are all clear - they need to be commented out in app.yaml. But that doesn’t help - the plugin errors disappear, and the error: The "discourse" Nginx outlet is missing. This version of discourse_docker is not compatible with the chosen Discourse version remains. And I can’t do anything about it. Is there any way to update my forum to version 2.8.14? If not, and for the future, how can I upgrade from version 2.8.5 to version 3.x.x? The situation is complicated by the fact that I use an external database, PosgreSQL. As I understand it, due to the AI features in the new Discourse, it requires a vector database, PgVector. Do I need to migrate somehow? Is there a guide on how to do this correctly and painlessly? I’d really appreciate your help!

Try updating Docker, does that help?

[image] nahimov: This version of discourse_docker is not compatible with the chosen Discourse version.' It’s a good bet that your OS it out of date too. The easiest and safest thing to do is move to a new vm with an up-to-date OS and docker.

[image] Falco: Please share your app.yml file, sans passwords. Here’s the original app.yml. I obfuscated it a bit. It has all the plugins. For testing, I removed them all, but rebuilding still produces an error. app.yml (4.9 KB)

[image] pfaffman: It’s a good bet that your OS it out of date too. The easiest and safest thing to do is move to a new vm with an up-to-date OS and docker. Ubuntu 20.04 is still fine, and has all the latest packages. Docker Engine 28.1.1 is also quite up-to-date. And why migrate to another VM if I can update this one in-place?

See my above quote from the logs. [image] nahimov: And why migrate to another VM if I can update this one in-place? Because the postgres upgrade can be problematic and installing on a new VM assures that you can’t end up with a broken forum. But wait. Do you have this line in your app.yml? version: v2.8.10 ## CHANGED FROM stable (v2.8.5) TO v2.8.10 FOR UPDATE That’s not going to work because the current docker container won’t work with that old of a Discourse. You need to upgrade to the latest version, or at least the latest supported version. It’s possible if you switch to a more recent version you won’t get that Docker error. Also, Discourse no longer works without https, so you need to un-comment the ssl and letsencrypt templates. And some other stuff has changed too. I’d recommend that you do a full reinstall with discourse-setup to get an up-to-date app.yml as well.
