I was on 3.2.xx and was trying to update via Admin Panel.  
But it somehow it failed. Nothing works and now I only get a 500 Error.

I’m running Discourse on a plesk server. How can I access the logs via console?

Any ideas how I can fix that?

Okay…  
Fixed it via

```plaintext
git pull
./launcher rebuild app

```

It seems that I am in the beta tree. Maybe that coursed the problems.  
Is it possible to switch to stable versions?

That’s why there is a -dev at the end. This is a version between 3.4.0.beta1 and 3.4.0.beta2

> The stable channel is not necessarily more “stable” than **tests-passed**. It’s more about the idea that the bugs are known, and it serves as a checkpoint for a specific set of features and improvements. With **tests-passed** , there may be new bugs introduced, then fixed a few commits later.
