JSON::ParserError on Jobs::VersionCheck

I applied the fix that you committed manually, since it was a simple change and now the warning goes away in Discourse’s admin panel, but if I look in sidekiq it says that VersionCheck still failed. Is there a way to confirm if it is actually working or not?

And in the error log I see (under Info):

Job exception: undefined method `>' for nil:NilClass

under Backtrace:

/var/www/discourse/app/jobs/scheduled/version_check.rb:23:in `execute'

/var/www/discourse/app/jobs/base.rb:154:in `block (2 levels) in perform’

under Env:

hostname	hal-app
process_id	104
application_version	c5f42f0e97b27bacd24d07c3180f9b485880e2fc
current_db	default
current_hostname	forum.blazingumbra.com
job	Jobs::VersionCheck
problem_db	default
opts	

Clearly something is wrong.
