for people with ubuntu 20.04 that need to upgrade

[p44]

@AartJansen This could be another option...

[AartJansen]

Yeah its been 9 hours, all cloudron services are down, and all I have to show for it is a screen full of .......
No idea how much longer its going to take. Really unimpressed with this upgrade process.

[joseph]

Usually ubuntu upgade takes < 1 hour . So, something is off/stuck. Where is it stuck? Where does .... appear?

recreating addon containers

[joseph]

Oh, this is the Cloudron recreate containers? You can just reboot the server and it will try to get unstuck (hopefully). After reboot, can you check the logs at /home/yellowtent/platformdata/logs/box.log ?

Just get that over and over, and the console saying its offline after reboot.
Oh and the lat entries

@AartJansen mysql server is not running. Can you check systemctl status mysql ? In old ubuntu upgrades, mysql 8 has to be removed (https://docs.cloudron.io/guides/upgrade-ubuntu-20/#post-upgrade) . Can you check if mysql package is installed as well?

[AartJansen]

I got it going again, with the cloudron-support --troubleshoot command
Thanks

How do I know what version it is?

All my apps say configuring (queued)

I think the mysql exited. Can you try systemctl restart mysql ? If that command worked, then do systemctl restart box and check that log file again.

I guess mysql --version gives the version .

This is correct, it will recreate all the app containers in a little bit. Check the log file, you will see it is rebuilding the addons.

[AartJansen]

Oh, I just rebooted it again, and it seems to be all services / apps are running.
Thanks
