I am having an issue trying to start the backend server and frontend after upgrading to latest version with coolify, I’ve tried a fresh install and nothing changed.

Unfortunate stuff, even with the newest version if it’s already released to us because in Github I’m still seeing 2.8.1 🥲

Let’s just hope it will be looked at by the team 🤞🏽

It worked on newly updated coolify but had to create a new instance to work and remove the old one!

Hi! I can’t seem to get it to work with the latest release. The coolify resource is stuck at 2.11

Anyone feel like doing us a solid? Coolify is one of the easiest ways to deploy this. I can make a raw docker compose file I guess but it wouldn’t be the same and migration would become a task.
