Kuma Uptime - ERROR: Database migration failed

[arta]

Hi guys

Kuma has update automatically and its not working anymore. The apps states its not responding. Terminal is also not connecting for this particular app. It keeps saying reconnecting.

In the logs we have this error:

That sounds familiar.

Solution was:
https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/14444/brief-note-on-backup-and-cloning-versions-prior-to-2.0

If it is the root cause: try cloning from a backup that was created before the 2.x update. This may work for you.

Whatever this is, it happened after the recent update. When I restore to a working backup before the update, the app comes back online but my entries dont work.

[james]

Hello @arta
Can you please try to give the app more memory before doing the update?

[arta]

I gave it 8GB of RAM and then updated it. At some point it forwarded the domain domain to /migrate-status and then in the log I am getting this:

and its getting repeated. Does it mean its migrating?

[nebulon]

From the error it looks like a previous migration failed mid-way and now the app can't continue. You have to restore it and retry the update I guess
