Discourse layouts plugin is broken

Support
1

I do have the same Problem as Parisa. The installation is currently on v1.9.0.beta14 +18 and the system tells me to upgrade to 1.9.0.beta15 but UI upgrade is disabled

<h2>You are running an old version of the Discourse image.</h2>
<p>
Upgrades via the web UI are disabled until you run the latest image.
</p>

but doing the upgrade on the console does fail.
How can I solve this?

Comment out the layout plugin on your .yml file and launch the rebuild again.
Then wait until @angus fixes the problem before rehabilitating it.

Hey there :slight_smile: The layouts plugin isn’t broken. You’ll get this error if you’re trying to add a widget and you don’t pass the right number arguments to the add_widget method.

What widget(s) / versions of widgets are you trying to use with the layouts plugin? (maybe just paste the list of plugins you’re using here)

Additionally, I’ve made a small change to the layouts plugin to prevent the passing of incorrect arguments from throwing an exception like this.

The issue is with layouts-categories. It’s using an old version of the layouts add_widget signature.

I’ve submitted a PR to your repo to update it.

thanks to everyone who helped.
Since we had layouts-categories anyway no longer in use (was used for a test in the past) we did just remove it and were then able to sucessfully upgrade.
Thread can be closed now.
