When rebuilding my app, bootstrapping fails like this:

```plaintext
2017-12-19 09:36:33.578 UTC [48] LOG: database system is shut down

FAILED
--------------------
Pups::ExecError: cd /var/www/discourse && su discourse -c 'bundle exec rake db:migrate' failed with return #<Process::Status: pid 569 exit 1>

**FAILED TO BOOTSTRAP** please scroll up and look for earlier error messages, there may be more than one

```

Further up, I find

```plaintext
Bundled gems are installed into `./vendor/bundle`

I, [2017-12-19T09:36:12.734165 #14] INFO -- : > cd /var/www/discourse && su discourse -c 'bundle exec rake db:migrate'
rake aborted!
ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2..3)

```

I uninstalled any suspicious plugins. Here is what I have left:

```plaintext
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/docker_manager.git
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-spoiler-alert.git

          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-assign.git
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-bbcode.git

```

How can I troubleshoot this?

Okay, I gave it another try after uninstalling `discourse-admin-statistics-digest` and now it works. So there seems to be a bug in [that plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/admin-statistics-report/50943).
