Admin dashboard not working after docker update

AI-generated summary

Users are experiencing issues with the admin dashboard not working after a Docker update on their Discourse instance hosted on a VPS. RogerK reports the dashboard and related sections hang, prompting a question about whether a terminal rebuild could resolve the issue. Jagster suggests the rebuild should be done via shell, which leads RogerK to question why a web interface is provided if it fails. pfaffman notes the web interface is meant to simplify updates but acknowledges the issue of it allowing users to proceed despite known failures. Wendell Fernandes confirms facing the same problem, and Andrew_Rowe directs him to a related discussion. pfaffman also references a guide on PostgreSQL updates for further troubleshooting.

I updated docker before updating tot he latest version (own instance hosted on a VPS).

The update went through, but now my admin dashboard and associated sections aren’t available. Whenever checking those url’s the forum “hangs”.

Is a “rebuild” through the terminal a possible solution?

Cheers,
Roger

It should be done in a shell in the first place.

Hey, thanks for the tip. If that is the case, why have a web interface to update your forum?

Good question, and we don’t have any answers. But update announcement tells it. Plus how you rebuild indexes.

Because it makes things easier for lots of people some of the time.

A better question, though, is “If everyone knows the upgrade via the web interface will fail, why does it let me click the button?” And, I think that it’s really not supposed to, but for some reason that’s not happening.

Facing the same issue for https://forum.fotografos.online :frowning: dont know what to do!

Did you rebuild from the command line? See PostgreSQL 15 update
