Error upgrading Discourse - gem conflict

Support Self-hosting
1

Trying to upgrade, but got stuck on this error:

I, [2020-05-22T05:14:06.527007 #1]  INFO -- : > cd /var/www/discourse && su discourse -c 'bundle exec rake db:migrate'
rake aborted!
Gem::ConflictError: Unable to activate faraday_middleware-0.11.0, because faraday-1.0.1 conflicts with faraday (>= 0.7.4, < 1.0)

I changed app.yml to stay on PostgreSQL 10 (I don’t have enough disk space to install 11), so not sure if that’s the reason.

Are you using any 3rd party plugins?

3

The usual: the bunch of standard discourse/xxx plugins plus normal ones like topic list preview, whos online etc.

4

I had faraday issue with a 3rd party plugin. I can only suggest try disabling plugins but that probably won’t help here?

5

Trying with standard upgrade including PostgreSQL to see if it works…

But pg_upgrade has been running for a while now… nothing yet…

I suppose the discourse-azure-blob-storage plugin is the culprit… again?

That could be the case. I don’t use the plugin so I can’t really comment.

You’ve got conflicting gems because of currently incompatible plugins.

You need to manually resolve that gem dependency in a plugin that is causing this (using version that works with other plugins/core and putting it into plugin.rb) or disable that plugin.

Just for the record here, this PR solves the problem:
