Lemmy.ml v0.19 upgrade issues and downtime. (lemmy.ml)

In anticipation of Lemmy's upcoming 0.19 release, and to work out any final issues, we're going to deploy a test release on lemmy.ml within the next few days.

We're doing this testing on lemmy.ml only, so that we can encounter any issues before the release, and to make sure the upgrade process is smooth for other production servers.

Some of the following will happen during the process:

Apps will likely break (only for lemmy.ml)
Lemmy.ml may experience some downtime for the upgrade to complete (ideally no more than an hour).
If anything goes wrong, we may have to restore from a database backup, meaning content made in between backups may be lost.

If all goes well, we'll have an official announcement for the release after this testing period.

I apologize for the difficulties this might cause. At most this will be a week of hair-pulling, but its vital that we catch any issues before telling other servers to upgrade.

I got randomly signed out this morning, maybe this has something to do with that.

When I look at my subscribed list, I see lots of posts for communities I am not subscribed to.

Open up an issue on lemmy-ui's github if you would.

Is it normal that on an upgrade, users are forced to re-login?

Why are images breaking?

[–] ticoombs@reddthat.com 5 points 1 year ago

Should be fixed. (It already got merged: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4213)

When I vote on a story while not logged in, it silently fails on 0.19-rc8

[–] authed@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago (8 children)

v0.19 still doesnt have the "subreddit" name in URLs?

also, I keep getting logged off

Sounds good to me

I was about the blame one of the android apps developers for breaking comments.

edit: This one was written from a browser. Apps don't like this new version.

[–] averagedrunk@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, Infinity hates it. I've still got a Firefox browser app pinned that works fine though.

I’m thrilled to be able to use 2FA now, because I’m able to get an otpauth URI to feed to pass!

Is anyone else unable to see a list of their own posts in their profile area? For example, I have several posts in /c/caps@lemmy.world that aren't showing up in my profile.

My profile: https://lemmy.ml/u/yo_scottie_oh?page=1&sort=New&view=Posts

An example of a post that I'd expect to show up there: https://lemmy.ml/post/8549237

Which, oddly is the same as this post: https://lemmy.world/post/8833534 (but this might be off topic).

I can see posts in other people's profiles, e.g. https://lemmy.ml/u/KindnessInfinity?page=1&sort=New&view=Posts.
