**Update** : I did a proper bootstrap, destroy, start with a 2-container setup and now the reported version numbers are updated and the Admin UI is rendering again. The rest of the post remains for posterity. * * * I’m experiencing what may be a similar issue. The Admin interface loads, but only displays the tabs at the top and the main content section is blank: ![Discourse Community Admin

experiencing the issue after trying to complete the upgrade from within the Discourse Admin UI where I was shown that I needed to update the Docker Manager first. After updating the Docker Manager, I started experiencing that issue, so I SSH’ed into the box and did a manual (2 container) update for just `web_only`: ```plaintext cd /var/discourse git pull ./launcher bootstrap web_only ./launcher stop web_only && ./launcher start web_only ^^^^ ⚠️ This is wrong! Use destroy per below. ⚠️ ``` Curiously, the /about.json path still shows I’m running `3.4.0.beta4-dev` which is what I thought I started from as the original email was for an upgrade from `3.4.0.beta4-dev` to `3.5.0.beta1`. I double checked the git log and it seems like at least the `discourse_docker` is on the latest commit `3715498fc188d60c0b579443383c4e973cf26f59` at the time of writing this. ## Safe-Mode Works I wasn’t aware of [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true), but apparently the issue doesn’t occur if I **disable ALL client side plugins**. Disabling _only_ unofficial client-side plugin customizations does _not_ resolve the issue as I tried each combination to narrow things down. | Option | Result | | --- | --- | | `no_unofficial_plugins` | ❌ | | `no_plugins` | ✅ | | `no_themes` | ❌ | ## Disabling `docker_manager` doesn’t help I tried commenting out the `docker_manager` plugin under `hooks/after_code`, then rebuilding the `web_only` container + stop && start, but the client side error message noted above still remains. It does introduce another error message which visiting the Admin page of `this.class.create` is not a function, but perhaps that’s expected with the underlying `docker_manager` plugin disabled for this test: ```plaintext loader.js:247 Uncaught (in promise) Error: Could not find module `discourse/lib/decorators` imported from `discourse/plugins/docker_manager/discourse/routes/update` at loader.js:247:1 at h (loader.js:258:1) at u.findDeps (loader.js:168:1) at h (loader.js:262:1) at requireModule (loader.js:24:1) at f.get (composer.js:874:1) at push.98673._extractDefaultExport (composer.js:874:1) at push.98673.resolveOther (composer.js:874:1) at push.98673.resolve (composer.js:874:1) at n.i [as getRoute] (upload-debugging.js:25:1) at p._getQPMeta (upload-debugging.js:25:1) index.js:78 Uncaught TypeError: this.class.create is not a function at n.i [as getRoute] (upload-debugging.js:25:1) at p._getQPMeta (upload-debugging.js:25:1) ``` Again, using [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true) with no\_plugins works around the issue temporarily. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/admin-functions/354332)._
