I need to update the smtp settings in app.yml, but I do not want to change the version of discourse. When I specify a version via the version tag, the rebuild fails with the error below. I am currently on version 2.4.0.beta8. FAILED -------------------- Pups::ExecError: cd /var/www/discourse && fi…

This comes up every year and probably should have a howto topic. I just searched for specific version: [Bild] Rebuilding with a specific version Support Context: I’m setting up a staging site and I want to have the same version on staging as production so …

Yes, difference here is that i am using the version tag in the yml, but get an error when rebuilding

If you just need to change smtp settings you can ./launcher destroy app ./launcher start app

ok, so that will read the yml even if it does not rebuild, sounds good. While that will fix my urgent issue, i am still intrested in why version does not work.

You said that you get “an error”. That means that you did something wrong. My best guess is a YML formatting error, but without knowing what the error was, there is really no way to know. Sorry, “please scroll up and look for earlier error messages, there may be more than one. ./discourse-doctor m…

Yes, I can see that the information i gave in the post was not detailed enough. I do not think it is a formatting error, since the yml works fine without the version tag. I tested some more, and it seems like whatever bug I encountered does not trigger in version 10 and 11, but does trigger in vers…

I finally found time to test this, and it did not work. I can see that it prints the correct pw when the app starts, but emails still fail due to access denied.

Hmm. I’m sure that it used to work. I have seen some other settings not get pushed to the config file. I’m not sure if it’s considered a bug.

It could also be that I am using an old version, so it may or may not work in the latest version. I just wanted to update with my findings.

I had reason to get back to this, seems to me like version works for branches, but not tags. I assume its because the launcher does not fetch all the tags first, `but i don’t know. Is there a way to edit the launcher scripts?

Wie kann ich Discourse neu aufbauen, ohne die Version zu ändern?

Ja, der Unterschied hier ist, dass ich das Version-Tag in der YAML-Datei verwende, aber beim erneuten Erstellen einen Fehler erhalte.
