I did an upgrade. Everything on the admin/update page shows status “Up to date” but when I try to post it fails with “Internal Server Error”.

Are you able to post with [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true) enabled?
Do you see any error in the browser’s console?

Do you have any custom plugins?

Your CDN\_URL ends with a slash, you should remove that.
I’m not sure if this is causing your issue, but it’s certainly not helping.

No custom plugins I know of so I’m pretty sure no.

I don’t find a setting for that.

Have you rebuilt this from console?

You have a two-container set up and the additional mail-receiver container.
To rebuild the web app portion do the following as root
> ./launcher rebuild web\_only
If that doesn’t error proceed to doing it with the data container
> ./launcher rebuild data
and see where that leaves you.

Thanks, that did the trick.
It would be helpful if the one-click upgrade button were disabled for incompatible configurations.

It’s in your `app.yml`. You should probably check on it there.

So when I get an upgrade notice should I run `launcher rebuild web_only`?

You can. It sort of removes the advantage of a 2-container install (I’m assuming it’s two container since you mention web\_only).
Here are my instructions: [Managing a two-container instance - Howto - Literate Computing Dashboard](https://dashboard.literatecomputing.com/t/managing-a-two-container-instance/1207)
Also, you need to pay some attention to things so that you notice stuff like [PostgreSQL 15 update](https://meta.discourse.org/t/postgresql-15-update/349515) that requires you to upgrade the data container as well.

You set it up! What are the advantages of two containers? It seems like more work and I don’t know what the payoff is.

The payoff is that you can build a new container while the old one continues to run, so downtime is under a minute.
It also makes it easier to put off the database upgrade while still being able to to upgrade discourse.
