Just a FYI for people-- don’t try this upgrade during prime time. The 2.6.0b2 upgrade has been running on our server for well over 40 minutes when normally it takes just a couple of minutes, usually over before you check back. I was concerned it was broken, but logging into postgres I can see a hug…

A note on the extended Docker Manager and/or rebuild via SSH time has been added to the release notes.

The upgrade just finished successfully as my panic started to hit its peak. Good times, good times.

The upgrade was quite slow for me on fast colocated hardware as well. Not entirely sure why, but definitely something to be aware of.

Yep, I suggest putting a note in the changelog warning people this one will probably take much longer than most updates, and not to kill it or do anything drastic because that’s expected.

@Wingtip Can I check the number of posts that you have on your forum? Unfortunately, this is going to be slow on sites with a large number of posts.

My local site didn’t have that many posts and it was still quite slow. Not 40 minutes slow but noticeably slower than previous upgrades by 3x-4x maybe?

FWIW: Just rebuilt and now running 2.6.0.beta2 ( 2aa1482421 ) The build process was not noticeably slower on our server.

Thanks @Wingtip , I thought it was just happening with us! Actually, I had to cancel the rebuild and restart the app because I thought it had got stuck on that query you mention. We have 6 million posts and after about 45 minutes was still not completed, so I guess I’ll have to be prepared for at l…

Just pulled out a stop watch and tested a rebuild (site with around 1M posts only) from 2.6.0b1 to b2; and from start to finish, it took 170 seconds. [IMG_9870] [Screen Shot 2020-08-21 at 6.34.31 PM] This is my second rebuild today, going from b1 to b2 and it seems very fine with no noticeable …

I also don’t use the docker manager and prefer to use the rebuild from command line. It’s better this way to see the log in case anything goes wrong. I also think it’s faster.
