Made a mirror backup to Juno.
Made a backup AMI:
Scanalyst Backup 2023-07-29 ami-0c6de154b3fa588a4
/ snap-0c4da5c5abd09ff05
/server snap-0b50188a73e897a6d
The system had been up for 16 days.
Installed 35 update packages, 35 for security including a new kernel.
super
yum update
Stopped Discourse.
cd ~/discourse/image
./launcher stop app
As recommended, set:
chmod o-rwx containers/app.yml
Rebooted.
The system came up promptly after the reboot. We are now running on
kernel 4.14.320-242.534.amzn2.x86_64.
On the Discourse Upgrade manager page:
https://scanalyst.fourmilab.ch/admin/upgrade
I upgraded:
docker_manager (This upgrade must be run first:
the other upgrade buttons are
disabled until it has been updated.)
The upgrade page, running in Chromium, hung displaying the
progress in this update. I finally gave up, reloaded the page,
and it reported docker-manager updated successfully.
With docker_manager updated, I now proceeded to update:
discourse-spoiler-alert
discourse-math
discourse-chatbot (Chromium hang during update. Reloaded page.)
discourse
The Admin page now reports we're running on 3.1.0.beta7.
Enabled the new site setting:
Settings/Users/Allow anonymous users to like posts
Note that this applies only to anonymous users with log-ins, not
visitors who are not logged in.
Verified that spoilers and MathJax are working after being updated.
Verified that Shalmaneser (discourse-chatbot) is working after being
updated.
