parsedRef.includes is not a function

[NDPD]

Hi,

I'm trying to install a custom Cloudron app of n8n, via a Docker image.
I did this two months ago, and it all worked as expected.

I'm now trying to do it again, with the latest version of n8n (or any version I've tested), and I'm getting an issue when I run cloudron install, that I can't seem to resolve, even with lots of troubleshooting with Claude's help.

This is what I get:
App is being installed.

=> Queued
=> Deleting old containers
=> Registering location [my sub domain].com .
=> Downloading image ............................

App installation error: Installation failed:

And then in the logs for the app I get:

Never mind, you can delete this request, I decided to reset everything back to 0 and start completely from scratch, and the error didn't reoccur, so still no idea what caused it but at least it's no longer happening.

No need to delete, just mark as solved . Will help future users who might hit the same (even if incorrect or unreproducible) issue.
