Failed upgrade to v4.7+

atshim commented 2 years ago

Description:

This is similar to https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/issues/25396 The error "/lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.25' not found" occurs when I execute "npm install" with v4.7+ on RHEL7. The issue says the problem was fixed on v4.7.2 so I tried it, but still the same problem occurs. The latest v4.8.1 doesn't work either.

Steps to reproduce:

systemctl stop rocketchat
wget https://releases.rocket.chat/4.7.2/download
mv download rocket.chat-4.7.2.tgz
mv /opt/Rocket.Chat /opt/Rocket.Chat.bak
tar zxf ~/rocket.chat-4.7.2.tgz
mv bundle /opt/Rocket.Chat
chown -R rocketchat:rocketchat /opt/Rocket.Chat
su -s /bin/bash rocketchat -
cd /opt/Rocket.Chat/programs/server/
npm install

Expected behavior:

npm install is completed successfully without any errors

Actual behavior:

The error occurs and npm install fails

Server Setup Information:

Version of Rocket.Chat Server: 4.7+
Operating System: RHEL7
Deployment Method: tar
Number of Running Instances: 1
NodeJS Version: 14.18.2 from RHSCL
MongoDB Version: 4.2.21

any news on this ?

Cob0ld commented 2 years ago

we have the same problem

jamesshaw1987 commented 2 years ago

Same issue on Ubuntu 18.04, except GLIBC_2.28 is the version that is required, with 2.27 being the version installed.

Cob0ld commented 2 years ago

any reason why this is not getting love from the devs ?

TheWrongGuy commented 2 years ago

Bump. The issue persists for 4.8.2 on CentOS7. I thought maybe they dropped the support for CentOS7, since it asks for 2.25 and the latest in CentOS7 available is 2.17, but if it is asking for 2.28 in some cases I'm confused.

Cob0ld commented 2 years ago

bump same error here for ubuntu 18.04

TheWrongGuy commented 2 years ago

Still....trying to npm install version 5.0.1. @sampaiodiego Can you maybe help with this or give an update? We can't upgrade since version 4.6.4...

sampaiodiego commented 2 years ago

hey @TheWrongGuy , I brought this issue to the team, we'll see what we can do..

meanwhile is Docker an option? you can easily spin up a Docker container without having to manage any rocket.chat dependency

TheWrongGuy commented 2 years ago

Thanks!

FractalizeR commented 2 years ago

Same problem here with Ubuntu 18.04.

TheWrongGuy commented 2 years ago

Does the issue persists with the latest versions? Didn't try 5.0.4 as of now.

TheWrongGuy commented 1 year ago

The issue persists on 5.1.0.... Is there an offical information on this? Was the support for older OSes dropped? Remember CentOS7 and Ubuntu 18.04 are still in LTS Support!!!

HighwayStar commented 1 year ago

I ended up updating 18.04 host to 20.04 and after this was able to update to rocket chat 5.1.1 with no issue.

TheWrongGuy commented 1 year ago

I think this won't be fixed anymore. Since I was over 15 Version behind now, I migrated the whole system from CentOS7 to Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS (Don't use 22.04 LTS MongoDB won't work there). Why the change to Ubuntu? "do-release-upgrade" for the future upgrades to later LTS releases. The new RedHad distros like AlmaLinux and Rocky offer upgrade tools too now, but I was annoyed by the upgrade wall between CentOS7 and 8 basically requiring a full new setup.

Now on 20.04. LTS I first migrated to 4.6.4 and then incrementally upgraded through to 5.2.0. Running fine now. I recommend this to all the others here. Don't wait any longer.

JoshMcCullough commented 1 year ago

This is unfortunate because we need to upgrade from 4.6 but cannot because nothing 4.7+ works on RHEL7. This is actually really bad, IMO. Anyone using CentOS 7 / RHEL 7 / Ubuntu <20, and many other distros will never be able to upgrade.

Any plans to release a patch for 4.x since this breaks 4.x entirely for a lot of people?
