    FYI @discourse users: After my work yesterday the discourse-reactions plugin was archived on GitHub. This repository was archived by the owner on Jul 10, 2025. It is now read-only. This plugin has now been bundled into Discourse core. See: https://meta.discourse.org/t/bundling-more-popular-plugins-with-discourse-core/373574 So best to uninstall the plugin.

    @matt-derrick gosu cloudron:cloudron bundle exec script/rails console does not give a rails console? (from your screenshot it does seem like that) . It just hangs is it? It works fine here on my cloudron too. You can try this on the demo cloudron to see how it is supposed to work . https://my.demo.cloudron.io (username/password is cloudron)

    Unfortunately I can't tell you preciesly. Once, I did reset the all the users preferences via the console: https://meta.discourse.org/t/reset-default-categories-watching-setting/244930/8 But there was no error message in the dashboard. Otherwise, I didn't do anything of importance. For updates, I think the error message appeared not before 3.4.3 or 3.4.4… Sorry for the vagueness.

    @wrapper this is quite an old issue. Can you create a new post with whatever issue you are facing?

    Just to close this topic. With some help of the discourse AI on ask.discourse.com, I could solve the problem. It was not a bug but an entanglement of site settings and user preferences due to the modifications made over time.

    @joseph Perfect, thank you ! That did the job. And to my surprise, the settings (LibreTranslate API and URL) were still in place !

    This was sorted out on support. Discourse has a database table called javascript_caches which holds on to some old theme assets. Just removing the entries in that table makes the site load again. I got this hint from various threads. I think this was a bug in some old releases. https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/16669 is the fix upstream https://meta.discourse.org/t/uncaught-in-promise-error-could-not-find-module-discourse-widgets-search-menu-imported-from-discourse-theme-70-widgets-search-banner/300297 is the browser error https://meta.discourse.org/t/using-safe-mode-to-troubleshoot-issues-with-themes-and-plugins/53504 (there is a /?safe_mode=no_themes,no_plugins )

    @cyph3rasi are you using Discourse on Cloudron ? If on Cloudron, you can use the memory limit slider to give the app mmore memory - https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/#memory-limit

    @joseph That could be a solution indeed. Though I would need a new server then. And is it possible to migrate easily the existing Discourse users to become users of the new Cloudron instance ? I also came across this now: https://github.com/consideRatio/discourse-sso-oidc-bridge

    The Discourse app that eventually installed when I upped the memory to 5.13 GB RAM, but which I've never even opened, just ran out of RAM which just doesn't seem right. (@staff I guess perhaps we should move all these posts from #5 onwards into the Discourse category?)

    @girish said in Possible to make this Discourse Events plugin work on Cloudron?: I think this one is gosu cloudron:cloudron bundle exec rake plugin:install_all_gems ! That seemed to do the job, I think, maybe. The plugin seems to have installed: [image: 1707564502811-f2a7dd2f-3d7e-4a27-9a8e-32b3881cf1e0-image-resized.png] But when I try to click on Events as shown above (and which links to https://bridport.events/admin/events ) I get this: [image: 1707564625874-c9f35c86-a31e-46a5-92fb-84c08a968e61-image.png] ️ Error loading route Caused by plugin 'discourse-events-e0079339aeef4bbe41336a3766e010483478c7374fcb7d7e0574c835848c6e01' (this message is only shown to site administrators) I also note that when running e.g. gosu cloudron:cloudron bundle exec rake posts:rebake I get: fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git I got that a few times during the install process too.

    Seems impossible https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-can-i-use-multiple-hostnames/136306 Maybe it would be nice to show this in the App Store, like with badges or something... We chose Discourse over NodeBB for no apparent reason. Maybe it would have made a difference.
