Cannot activate new account

I installed Discourse using the launcher at https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker/. I kept the configuration from samples/standalone.yml almost unchanged, except that I had to change the port 80 because there is an apache running on the host. That apache is now set up to act as reverse proxy, forwarding requests to localhost:8088, which is the port that I bound the Discourse container to.
The admin interface says I am on Discourse version https://github.com/discourse/discourse/tree/3eb0288adb16eae63514657b71ae9c38433a1f5c.

Stuff seems to basically work, I can create an account and create topics etc. However, activating an account does not work: Pressing the button on the confirmation page has no effect. (How did I log in to create a topic, you may wonder? I used the “Forgot Password” functionality.) This is with Firefox 42. The JS error console shows

You should update to latest, there was a about that issue (it’s the commit right next to the one you’re at)

Indeed, ./launcher rebuild did it. Thanks!

Now I wonder, can I somehow make it track a stable branch rather than the current development branch?

Just change the version you’re tracking in the app.yml file to “stable” for example

github.com

discourse/discourse_docker/blob/master/samples/standalone.yml#L45


      
          
            ## Which Git revision should this container use? (default: tests-passed)
            #version: tests-passed
          
          env:
            LC_ALL: en_US.UTF-8
            LANG: en_US.UTF-8
            LANGUAGE: en_US.UTF-8
            # DISCOURSE_DEFAULT_LOCALE: en
          
            ## How many concurrent web requests are supported? Depends on memory and CPU cores.
            ## will be set automatically by bootstrap based on detected CPUs, or you can override
            #UNICORN_WORKERS: 3
          
            ## TODO: The domain name this Discourse instance will respond to
            ## Required. Discourse will not work with a bare IP number.
            DISCOURSE_HOSTNAME: 'discourse.example.com'
          
            ## Uncomment if you want the container to be started with the same
            ## hostname (-h option) as specified above (default "$hostname-$config")
            #DOCKER_USE_HOSTNAME: true

Thanks a lot

Can I somehow mark this bug as fixed?
