Without me changing anything, my Discourse forum https://lilypond.community suddenly started returning an error page for any request with login cookies: Oops The software powering this discussion forum encountered an unexpected problem. We apologize for the inconvenience. Detailed information ab…

Same error than this: [immagine] Fatal: could not read Username for 'https://github.com' Self-hosting I tried upgrade my 2-container forum, but it fails. Any ideas why? x86_64 arch detected. …

Oh, actually, if I log in with an unprivileged user account, it works, but not with my admin account. So I suspect it’s the upgrade part of the admin interface that’s hanging in these Git operations?

How did you manage get the admin interface to open without error in the first place?

I had to wait until the git nonsense timed out, and/or could get my request served to a pitchfork which wasn’t blocked. My forum/logs area is presently showing 4 cases of “pitchfork worker timed out” and it’s not a very busy forum at all.

One could also use rails from an ssh access, I believe. This might be a terrible idea. Proceed at your own risk. # docker exec -i app rails runner 'puts SiteSetting.version_checks' true # docker exec -i app rails runner 'SiteSetting.set("version_checks", false)' # docker exec -i app rails runner …
