So the last few times i updated the launcher or what ever the thing is that takes for ever to update before other updates can be done, it gives me this

## You are running an old version of the Discourse image

Updates via the web UI are disabled until you run the latest image. To do so log in to your server using SSH and run:

```plaintext
  cd /var/discourse
  ./launcher rebuild app

```

now this is an issue cause the forum owner hardly heads to the forum and doesn’t do it unless i email them to and its getting tedious to do so.

why do i get this so much?
