2.7.0.beta2 upgrade failed

[realcr (real)]

Hi, I just received an email from discourse, proposing to upgrade from 2.7.0.beta1 to 2.7.0.beta2.
I went to the admin page and clicked on upgrade, and it seems like something has failed.
As a result, it is not possible to access my dicourse instance anymore (Error 500).

I include here the final part of the log. The full log was too long and therefore I could not include it here.
Instead, you can access it through pastebin.

The instance is hosted on a 2GB memory, 50GB hard disk digital ocean droplet. Nothing special was configured at this discourse instance. In fact, nobody even ever sent a single message on this instance.

Spinning up 3 Unicorn worker(s) that were stopped initially

[pfaffman (Jay Pfaffman)]

Do you have any non standard plugins installed?

You did a

 ./launcher rebuild app 

At the command line?

[Cedric]

On my side, I dont have any non-standard plugins and I launched this on the command line. The first timeI was still getting the error.

I then restarted my server, rebuilt the app… and it works.

[realcr (real)]

Hi, thanks for the quick reply!
I have a vanilla installation, never changed anything except for clicking on the “upgrade” button from time to time. This is why I considered what happened to my discourse instance to be very surprising.
I didn’t try a ./launcher rebuild app, will try and report the result.

My upgrade to 2.7.0.Beta2 cannot be even started - click on the one-click upgrade link in the email announcing this upgrade

Hooray, a new version of Discourse is available!

why is this happening? I am supposed to run the upgrade from the console logged in the Digital Ocean droplet hoting discourse?

[pfaffman (Jay Pfaffman)]

You’ll need to upgrade from the command line. There is a new docker base image.

./launcher rebuild app

The announcement says that, but it’s not clear from the standard upgrade email.

[geoff777]

I’ve just upgraded to 2.7.0.Beta2
You have to do this particular upgrade from the command line.

cd /var/discourse
git pull
 ./launcher rebuild app

[adriatic (Nikolaj Ivancic)]

My apologies for this asynchronous discussion - I started my question and had to suddenly leave my office. To prevent losing my unfinished message, I saved it - and it gave you the opportunity to answer my question before I fully posted it

[geoff777]

The DO console would work if you don’t use a terminal.

The buttons in the screenshot are initially disabled forcing you to upgrade Docker first.

An aside:You could have left your reply as it saves automatically as a draft.

[adriatic (Nikolaj Ivancic)]

Spoke too soon

Thanks, @geoff777 - it all makes sense now

Trying to run

cd /var/discourse

The rebuild app script failed two times in the row, at the precise same place:

This cannot be random networking interference. Please advise

In my case rebuild stucked at plugin discourse-vk-auth. Currently my instance works without this plugin.

I’ve also run into trouble with that vk plugin in previous releases. My recommendation is to remove it, plus paste the error log to that plugin’s topic on the forum so it can be addressed.

Hard to say from the screenshot. Do you have enough disk space?

You have edited both your previous posts after I have interacted.

The second time I ‘liked’ a positive post but you edited it and now it’s a post about a problem.
Which apparently I like?

[adriatic (Nikolaj Ivancic)]

My apologies @geoff777 - without much thinking I reclassified your “like” comment (my intent was to keep the number of my posts small, thus lowering the chance of miscommunication)

I believe that I have enough space:

However, I suspect that my problem has to do with the Digital Ocean console - it times out very quickly , so it is possible that my update succeeded and I am just not aware of that. Will contact DO support and report my findings back here.

[geoff777]

Thanks.

You can check on your forum’s dashboard that you have successfullu upgraded.
I hope it worked.

[adriatic (Nikolaj Ivancic)]

Your wish / hope @geoff777 did not help. I tried to login - and the discourse server was not responding.

I decided to run discourse-doctor from the DO console, launched from PuTTY tool (I am running on a Windows 10 machine), - and my console stopped at the same place.

Note this beginning of this run: - app not running!

Here is the complete log up to the point of failure, saved in my Github repository, to save the space here.

The fact that I repeated this upgrade several times and after each failure (reported to me as a “console network failure”) it is obvious that this upgrade kills the existing discourse instance.

Please advise. I am happy to pass you my certs in case you want to run this yourselves

[pfaffman (Jay Pfaffman)]

Both times you got that PuTTY Fatal Error?

That seems like a putty problem, though I can’t imagine why.

[adriatic (Nikolaj Ivancic)]

Yes, @pfaffman I do get that same error. If the execution of the ./discourse-doctor causes some catastrophic failure is it not possible that this failure results with the PuTTY fatal error - at least for my own (remote) view of his failure?

It does not seem very likely, but I will create a support ticket for DO, hoping that they might have a better view of this problem.

[pfaffman (Jay Pfaffman)]

I guess I world try the digital ocean console next (actually, I would use a terminal in Ubuntu, but that’s not what I’d recommend to you).

[adriatic (Nikolaj Ivancic)]

Since yesterday, I observed a lot of weird behavior. Before sharing them here, please do let me know if continuing this thread is useful for anyone (the alternative is that I am just stepping on my own d… and this is all a waste of everyone’s time). I found that:

• resetting the root password (from DO control panel) resulted in the ability to use digital ocean’s console (as @pfaffman suggested above)
• next I run the discourse-doctor in that console and it found nothing wrong (before that resetting event) the https://forum.congral.tech failed to respond - now all works just fine)
• All of my attempts to upgrade discourse (like this one) failed multiple times (the PuTTY console showing Network Error as the reason), and today I can verify that the upgrade failed:

content="Discourse 2.7.0.beta1 - https://github.com/discourse/discourse version 1cf92310456fb6e6424f6b532770461c56378d53"

Changing the root password and then using digital ocean’s console is a significant change that might be of interest to Discourse team to understand better. Should I continue digging and sharing my findings here, @pfaffman ?
