Outline Update Failing (Outline from 0.67.2~ynh1 to 0.69.2.2~ynh1)

[mhfowler]

I'm running yunohost on a digital ocean droplet, with yunohost version: 11.1.22 (stable)

I've tried to update Outline through the system update and its failing.

I actually wouldn't need to update, except I am currently seeing an error in outline when I try to export one of of my collections as markdown (and was hoping the update would fix this). The error I see when exporting the collection as markdown is: Failed • Unexpected close tag Line: 5 Column: 7 Char: > • You requested 4 mins ago • Markdown • 0 Bytes

Either a way to fix the export, or to fix the update (and hopefully thus fix the export), either would be appreciated.

When I try to update outline, it fails with an error message, and then hangs, and I need to reboot the server to do things in the yunohost admin interface again. This is the logs I can see:

This action broke dpkg/APT (the system package managers)... You can try to solve this issue by connecting through SSH and running `sudo apt install --fix-broken` and/or `sudo dpkg --configure -a`.

I've tried running sudo apt install --fix-broken and it yields: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Interestingly, after the failed upgrade, the outline application no longer works, the domain just shows the nginx page:

Welcome to nginx!

If you see this page, the nginx web server is successfully installed and working. Further configuration is required.

I'm able to restore outline to its previous state by uninstalling outline through the admin interface, and then restoring it from its backup.

I've identified that its just one file in particular that is causing the error (had to manually add and remove files to figure this out). Although still not sure why this file is causing an error (maybe photos are too big or something? not sure how to fix though...)

Could you please try to update to the v0.72 just released ? Thanks !

I will close this issue since I didn't get any feedback. Sorry that it didn't work for you ! Don't hesitate to reopen if things are still not working on your side
