Sharing in case this helps anyone else that sees “Updating” in the admin panel although no update is actually in progress and the forum appears otherwise healthy. While it never impacted docker manager updates, the past few versions I’ve had to do CLI updates as the admin panel always seemed to ind…

Redis also contains user sessions and much more. Flushing Redis completely will log everyone out and delete all pending Sidekiq jobs. Scheduled jobs will only come back after the next restart. This should only be a last resort and even then I encourage you to see which specific keys are the culprit…

Could Redis be restarted instead? I think (Edit: wrong! see below) it’s an in-memory database so nothing would persist over, say, a server reboot. And a server reboot isn’t destructive (and could happen at any time.)

[image] Ed_S: I think it’s an in-memory database so nothing would persist over, say, a server reboot. That is incorrect. Redis does persist to disk.

[image] RGJ: This should only be a last resort I appreciate your insight and expertise. Things I tried: Update from admin panel (failed/never started) Followed the manual updating discourse steps (over the past 3 releases) Did several launcher app rebuilds. Searched the forum for a simil…

To be clear, you found cd /var/discourse git pull ./launcher rebuild app did not work for you? (In what way did it not work? Is this a standard install ?)

Did not do the git pull, did do the launcher rebuild app. That process worked fine, just never cleared that the admin panel believed an update was in progress.

Thanks - so the observation is that the admin panel update isn’t working for you. Also, it hasn’t been working for me for a while! It would be better if it did work.

i prefer the command line updating, but i just did a docker and discourse update from the UI on my iphone 15 and it worked quite well this time ( standard install on DO). [IMG5141] [IMG5142] i usually do it all from CLI on one of my computers, since it failed for me in UI last time i tried (a f…

what deos free -h return? what is UNICORN_WORKERS set to in app.yml? what is db_shared_buffers set to in app.yml? is db_work_mem commented out in app.yml? how many (v)CPU’s deos your server have?

Free -h shows 3.8Gi memory, 1.7Gi used, 134Mi free, 1.0Gi shared, buff/cache 2.0Gi avail 788Mi Swap 2.0Gi, 290Mi used 1.7Gi free UNICORN_WORKERS : 4 db_shared_buffers 1GB db_work_mem is commented out, set to 40MB I’m running a 2 vCPU 4GB RAM instance. Thanks for the questions! :smiley:

que renvoie free -h ?

à quoi est défini UNICORN_WORKERS dans app.yml ?

à quoi est défini db_shared_buffers dans app.yml ?

db_work_mem est-il commenté dans app.yml ?

combien de (v)CPU votre serveur possède-t-il ?
