I just released a new discourse docker base image, I recommend you all update to it because it includes a rather important change that ensures logfiles cycle correctly.

To update run:

```plaintext
cd /var/docker
git pull
./launcher rebuild app

```

Latest includes a special fix that means that in future, when you need to rebuild:

```plaintext
cd /var/docker
./launcher rebuild app

```

You get to omit the git pull. 🎊 💝 🎉 🎈

Of course I am going to have to wait a year for everyone to get on latest… but hey… it is progress

Keep up the good work.

As someone who maintains hundreds of production servers, Discourse has been very turn key for me.
