Hi ! We are using Discourse on community.museomix.org since many years But I encounter a strange problem when I rebuild the container, it fails with this message: undefined method `deprecated?' for nil:NilClass Here is the full rebuild discourse-doctor output if it can help DISCOURSE DOCTOR Fr…

You are running Discourse on a end of life Ubuntu version. You need to move to an up to date Linux install. That kernel version is way too old.

Me too :frowning: OS is up-to-date, Discourse also

I’m on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS :slight_smile: so not really end-of-life version :wink: but it seems I have a 3.x kernel

[afbeelding] Samy Rabih: I’m on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS :slight_smile: so not really end-of-life version :wink: but it seems I have a 3.x kernel Ubuntu 22.04 was launched with Kernel 5.15, so I’d suspect a very nonstandard install / upgrade was in place to get into this state.

I’m trying to switch to a kernel at least more recent than 5.15, but aufs is no longer supported so I’m switching to overlay2

I would recommend that you just spin up a new server rather than muck with the overlays.

Do I need to only retrieve my last Discourse backup from the current server ? (I don’t want to lose some data)

The backup and the plugin list from your app.yml is all you need. If it’s a really old installation, I’d recommend that you run discourse-setup and then copy over the plugins.

no specific plugins on this installation (was on last minor version I guess, I update on a regular basis). Thanks @pfaffman and @Falco

I was finally able to: update OS and kernel to recent versions rebuild Discourse (enabling SSL in app.yml) switch to overlay instead of aufs (without losing data) So https://community.museomix.org/ is back online. (I avoid for some time to move to another droplet). Thanks to Discourse community…
