Upgrading to GitLab Mattermost in GitLab 8.9

Troubleshooting
21

I used the following en.json > https://github.com/mattermost/platform/blob/master/i18n/en.json

I put the en.json INSIDE the directory where the mattermost executable is located (in my case: /opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/)

Then I was able to successfully restore my access to the system console.

I may have a particular issue.
I have an instance of gitlab which when I installed, I set up mattermost but didn’t use it at the time.
Now that I’ve upgraded gitlab and plan to use it, I run the interactive upgrade but it says I have 0 teams (expected), but I can’t do the upgrade because I can’t choose any team for the script to keep running. Any help, thoughts?

I having exact same issue as @samypr100 …

mattermost@gitlab:/opt/gitlab/embedded/service/mattermost$ /opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/mattermost -config='/var/opt/gitlab/mattermost/config.json' -upgrade_db_30

I highly recommend that you start a separate thread so that your issue gets more exposure.

Hi everyone,

If you haven’t found the answer to your issue by web searching the error message plus “mattermost”, then please use this link to post a new topic in the GitLab Mattermost forum for your troubleshooting issue.

This was recommended in the first message on this thread.
