Ghost version: 3.42.6 (at /var/lib/ghost)

Installed within a docker running nginx

Node Version

Not really sure what happened, I’ve been neglecting by blog but logged in to do some updates and updated to the latest version of 3.X. I had to also update node. Site was still running so didn’t think anything of it, until I tried to access /ghost and it’s nowhere to be found.

404 Cannot find module ‘…/…/…/…/frontend/helpers/asset’ Require stack: - /var/lib/ghost/versions/3.41.3/core/server/web/shared/middlewares/error-handler.js - /var/lib/ghost/versions/3.41.3/core/server/web/api/app.js - /var/lib/ghost/versions/3.41.3/core/server/web/api/index.js - /var/lib/ghost/versions/3.41.3/core/server/web/parent/app.js - /var/lib/ghost/versions/3.41.3/core/server/index.js - /var/lib/ghost/versions/3.41.3/core/index.js - /var/lib/ghost/versions/3.41.3/index.js

Seeing quite a few issues with ghost doctor, too.

One or more errors occurred.

I’m really not very good with any of this sort of thing, so appreciate any help. I have all my content backed up but can’t get in to export a json. I have no member functionality so hopefully I haven’t lost all the blog posts since they’ll hopefully be in the content backup folder.

Thanks

Update:

Reverted my Linode box to a previous backup and have access again. However I’m still getting strange behaviour, and it’s really confusing me. Ghost must be running as my blog is working, I can access the admin page, make updates etc.

But when I try to run any commands regarding ghost, it says there are no installed instances found. How the hell have I managed this! It keeps saying port 2368 is in use, which yeah, it probably is, as I’m definitely running a ghost instance SOMEWHERE. Anyone got any ideas?

node@75d1ecb29b92:/var/lib/ghost$ ghost stop
Process manager 'systemd' will not run on this system, defaulting to 'local'

Ghost is already stopped! For more information, run: 

    ghost ls

node@75d1ecb29b92:/var/lib/ghost$ ghost ls
No installed ghost instances found
node@75d1ecb29b92:/var/lib/ghost$ ghost start

Haha, fixed… didn’t realise I should be updating through docker… looking back I was wondering why I didn’t remember the cli, because I never used!! :laughing:

Can be closed.
