Lemmy instance broken after upgrading to 0.18.0

This is a docker setup, so to update all I did was change the lemmy-ui and lemmy versions in docker-compose.yml. Note: downgrading to 0.17.4 results in an API error instead, and still a broken site, so downgrading does not appear to be an option.

Upgraded my instance to 0.18.0, and now there are errors in both lemmy-ui and lemmy backend.

I see federation messages processing as usual, however trying to load the UI generates a weird error in lemmy-ui, and returns "Server Error" instead of the main page.

The error in the lemmy-ui logs looks like it is trying to load the site icon via pictrs from the public facing domain, but instead trying to connect to 127.0.1.1:443 (for pictrs) and getting refused.

}

lemmy-ui and pictrs are on the same default lemmyinternal network.

I've also filed a bug, because I've been trying to troubleshoot this, but haven't found a solution yet.

Any help is appreciated.

  • Note: this seems like it has something to do with the database, and something getting royally messed up post upgrade.

    After trying all sorts of network hacks and updates, I eventually just decided to backup my Postgres container, and nuke it.

    With a fresh Postgres DB running along with 0.18.0, my self hosted site is back online. Of course, my local post history and all my subs are gone... but at least my site is operational again.

    I'd advise anyone self-hosting to not upgrade to 0.18.0 yet.
