Backed up my server prior to a mass-delete and a typo occurred (sleep comes first 😊) so I ran a restore.

It quit halfway through the first time I ran it and I was never messaged me a log. I ran the restore a second time and it completed, this time with the messaged log.

Now, I’m getting the Sidekiq update error:  
`A check for updates has not been performed. Ensure sidekiq is running.`

Tried triggering it manually from `/sidekiq/scheduler` but it keeps failing after 60 seconds.  
The error in “retries” shows this error:  
`Jobs::HandledExceptionWrapper: Wrapped Excon::Error::Timeout: connect_write timeout reached`

No clue what’s going on now. Forum is still up and a few other Sidekiq tasks are failing.
