0.9 Upgrade command failed
-
This should do it...
git fetch; git checkout v0.9.x; git pull; npm install; ./nodebb stop; ./nodebb upgrade; ./nodebb start; ./nodebb log
-
@scottalanmiller He is on 0.8.1 that won't work. I believe you have to update to latest on 0.8.x before upgrading to 0.9
@bitspook follow this guide

Yes, this is correct (although right now all of the upgrade scripts are still there, so this is a good reminder for me to remove them, thanks!).

Ah sorry, the probably....
git fetch; git pull, npm i; ./nodebb upgrade; git checkout v0.9.x; git pull; npm install; ./nodebb stop; ./nodebb upgrade; ./nodebb start; ./nodebb log

we could have a pre-release channel that upgrades a week before a new milestone launches, so some users can test it out and report back
I'd be happy to do this. I already run
masterlocally, and upgradeX.X.Xlocally before doing anything on my production site.How would you let us know something is ready for testing?
-
We develop on master, so if you run master you wouldn't experience the issues we'd have as well.
Ideally it would be a site administrator who runs on stable, but when requested, will duplicate his db, and run the upgrade from, for example, v0.8.2 to v0.9.0

I would not mind doing that. Actually, I already do that. It is part of my upgrade process before upgrading the real forum. I am sure I am not the only one. I am late for the 0.9.0 but I would be OK to give it a try for the next release.

You need to go through the 0.8.x series first.

git fetch; git pull, npm i; ./nodebb upgrade; git checkout v0.8.x; git pull; npm install; ./nodebb stop; ./nodebb upgrade; ./nodebb start; ./nodebb log
Make sure that things are okay then...
git fetch; git pull, npm i; ./nodebb upgrade; git checkout v0.9.x; git pull; npm install; ./nodebb stop; ./nodebb upgrade; ./nodebb start; ./nodebb log

No I don't need them, but curious since they're causing trouble

The way npm handles peer dependencies left much to be desired, especially in a development landscape like ours where versions go up regularly and different rates compared to plugins.
Specifically, if a module A required a peer dependency B with a fairly strict version (e.g.
~0.15.0), then if that dependency got updated to v0.16.0 or above, then any future attempts to install module A would throw a peer dependency error and abort the npm installation, leaving NodeBB in a state that would not run. That's not so good for non-developers
