Attempted to upgrade and I think I messed something up

Im not sure what I did, but I ended up attempting to upgrade via cli and did something to the forums. I tried first upgrading via the upgrade tool provided in the GUI but the site went down, so I did it through the CLI and im getting the same error

Looking at the logs provided by the container, I see the following:

Did you perform

cd /var/discourse
./launcher rebuild app

from the command line?

If that doesn’t help, did you try ./discourse-doctor ?

Yes I did try rebuilding the app, I am rebuilding now with adplugin removed to see if that changes anything and attempt to see if safe-mode works. I did try the doctor but it just provides a lot of info that doesn’t seem any clear indication of what’s going on. Ill provide that in a few minutes once its fully rebuilt.

safe-mode does not work and here is the provided discourse-doctor:

You should inspect that file carefully before sharing the URL.

You can examine the output of this script with
LESS=-Ri less /tmp/discourse-debug.txt

BUT FIRST, make sure that you know the first three commands below!!!

Commands to know when viewing the file with the above command (called 'less'):
q              -- quit
/error<ENTER>  -- search for the word 'error'
n              -- search for the next occurrence
g              -- go to the beginning of the file
f              -- go forward a page
b              -- go back a page
G              -- go to the end of the file

Try removing the above two plugins, I think one of these two could be causing problems.

You can move from retort to reactions and from topic previews to https://github.com/paviliondev/discourse-tc-topic-list-previews and https://github.com/paviliondev/discourse-topic-previews-sidecar

Ill go ahead and try this, but either way should safe-mode still work? since thats not using plugins?

Safe mode won’t work if your container is throwing errors.

Gotcha, rebuilding the container now with the suggested changes, will post update once completed

There have been a couple of similar reports recently about the previews plugin being an old version, and updating that to its new repo fixes things:

I believe this fixed it! Thank you, I should prob check more often on the plugins I have that are no longer compatible with discourse newer versions.

I appreciate your help immensely!

Topic Previews move to a Theme Component was initially experimental. When that experimentation ended and the theme component version matured the complimentary plugin branch was merged to the master branch and the plugin renamed to make its new purpose more obvious. The branch move meant that the old branch was no longer maintained. All you need to do is remove the branch option as the name changes are automatically mapped by GitHub. This happened some time ago. See: Topic List Previews Theme Component for up-to-date links. (Oh I see you posted them, thanks @itsbhanusharma )
