Hi!

We are using discourse\_docker with Discourse v2.2.0.beta10 +6

Our nightly backup has failed a couple of times during the last month.  
The log says:

```

Seems like it fails to archive (tar) the backups? But it doesn’t say why.

Upgrading should fix it. I recommend you do a rebuild on the console:

```plaintext
./launcher rebuild app

```
