My one-click upgrade failed, leaving my site to display the following:

The log shows the following:

I guess I should also be asking why the upgrade failed. I also couldn’t access the backup section of my admin panel.

There was a docker problem in December that couldn’t be resolved by the upgrade. From memory, this required a rebuild.for the upgrade to 2.4.0.beta8.

Your problem may not be the same but a rebuild might work:

That did it! Thank you!

Also, it was a good opportunity for me to reset my root password on DigitalOcean. I couldn’t remember where I had placed it. Honestly, I was scared that I would screw something up in terminal, but it all worked out.

Again, thank you! The Discourse community is great!
