I do hope you took a backup and have a safe copy of it before you started the first upgrade.

Your kernel is too old, because your OS version is very old. As pointed out upthread, you have limited options for updating your kernel.

Upgrading your OS in place will probably be lengthy and difficult. The usual advice is to start up a fresh new OS, install discourse, and restore your backup. (Ideally, don’t delete anything existing until your new world is completely working. If you end up on a new instance with a new IP address, you’ll need to update your DNS)
