At the top of the Admin screen, I am told `Your Discourse installation is out of date. Click here to upgrade.` But when I click, each item is `Up to date`.

Also on the Admin screen: `A check for updates has not been performed lately. Ensure sidekiq is running.` However, in the Processes list, I see `sidekiq 4.0.1 discourse [0 of 5 busy]`.

What’s going on here? I suspected that Discourse was running out of memory on my Linode 2048 because it was using swap. (Perhaps this is why `sidekiq` wasn’t up?) So, I just finished upgrading it to a 4096 MB instance. Now no swap is being used, but I am still unable to upgrade.

Is this something to worry about or should I just leave it be? Thanks in advance!!

(I tried to include a second screenshot, but `new users can only put one image in a post`, so just trust me that my Discourse install says all upgradeable items are `Up to date`.)

Have you tried rebooting?

Jeff, thanks for your response.

The Linode VPS rebooted when I resized it to a 4096 MB instance. I am assuming this is what you mean?

Btw I checked the admin screen again just now, thinking the situation may have corrected itself overnight due to the new extra 2 GB of RAM. However, I am still seeing the same symptoms.

Try to visit `/sidekiq` – do you see Sidekiq’s dashboard there? If so, can you post a screenshot?

Hi Felix, thanks a lot. Yes, I can see the dashboard. Here it is:

Note that the high number of failed jobs is from 2 months ago, when every `Jobs::UserEmail` failed with `Jobs::HandledExceptionWrapper: Wrapped SocketError: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known`. I fixed that by doing an upgrade + restart, which is good but makes me uneasy since I don’t know _how_ I fixed it! No jobs have failed since then.

What’s with the “9,999 Dead”? Pretty sure that’s not normal…

Hi Kane, those are many failed `Jobs::UserEmail` from when it was messed up 2 months ago:

I do not think they are related to my current problem, but I may be wrong.

`/var/discourse/launcher rebuild app` successfully updated Discourse for me. I am just gonna do it that way from now on.

FWIW, I suspect I have a weird Linode-specific Docker install on my Linode instance. This may or may not be the cause of my inability to update within the Discourse UI, [and some other problems](https://meta.discourse.org/t/jobs-handledexceptionwrapper-wrapped-socketerror-getaddrinfo-name-or-service-not-known/42652/3).
