Tried commenting out plugins which are now bundled from /var/discourse/containers/app.yml

but rebuild still drops the same error.

Anyone has an idea? Thank you!

You need to remove these plugins from the app.yml file. They are already available in the new version of discourse, so don’t need to pull them during rebuild.

Remove the line 'git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-reactions' from your containers/app.yml file, then try again.

The thing is I did exactly that.

I think this has got to do with all the plugins getting bundled into core. Even my dev environment has lots of errors and broken plugins and bunch of console logs.

Could you send the list of plugins installed in your app.yml file? Thanks!

Did you actually save the yml after you took the lines out?

Looks like discourse-chat-integration still needs to be commented out

Yes, it was that… No wonder I’m making such mistakes after like 12 hours. Thank you!
