I think it’s fairly obvious which plugin that relates to? 😉

Have you read the recent posts/OP of the plugin Topic?

There was action you needed to take and if you haven’t taken it, it won’t build.

You mean /var/www/discourse/plugins/docker\_manager/lib/ **docker\_manager** /  
?

If so, I don’t know what steps to take either. Will now search for the link typed about though.

I missed that. :facepalm: I know you would catch it in your sleep. I’m more in the average to below average intelligence level. 😐 Whoosh!

That’s quite alright, I think most people normally see error messages and gloss over, but when your forum is down because of it, worth digging a little deeper?

Normally I wouldn’t put you guys (the users) in such a position in the first place, but the nature of AI has been a crazy rollercoaster and I can’t protect you all from all of the bumps, though I’ve tried my best.

This change, despite the annoying manual nature of the resolution, is a one-off and should make future upgrades seamless, so Chatbot will no longer be raised in Topics for bad reasons, I hope!

Your yml file is different from my last upgrade. It seems hard to follow this plugin upgrade.  
After change yml, it is ok now. Thank you very much.

Great news!

If it builds ok now, you can remove all of those lines, every one of them.
