I've tried with both and not setting it in the environment variables.
When it's the subdomain/CNAME, the EB url redirects to the subdomain.
The first time (and only the first time) I set it to the EB url I saw Metabase, it showed me the typical post-update initialization screen, and from then on it has been redirecting me to the subdomain. That's how I know Metabase is running: I saw that initialization screen, and thereafter it knew where to redirect me (the subdomain).
do you have any load balancers in front of Metabase or you did any tweak to Nginx conf?
I followed the guide explicitly. So I set max load balancers to 1. Didn't tweak anything with Nginx.
Likewise. on everything you're experiencing.
I actually tried your suggestion Luiggi, however having ENV B (new) point to ENV A(old) RDS using env variables still did not work.
The same issue about the CNAME is what Im experiencing.
It is as if the CNAME / EB URL is not resetting - does this get stored in the DB? If yes, does that override the ENV VARs? because I've set the ENV VARs URL to the EB URL and it doesn't work.
my suggestion was to use in the old environment (the one you have running with 39.1) environment variables to connect to the actual RDS that you have set up (the one that is coupled with the Elastic Beanstalk deployment), and on that deployment upgrade to 40.1, so you can keep the current URL of EB
Would the environment variables override the RDS instance inside?
In 40.1 yes, as this should be the correct behaviour (env vars should always prevail no matter other configurations). In < 40 no, but I haven't tested this as it was reported by a customer
I tried connecting my old EB environment (which uses a deprecated version of Docker) with my new db (because I can't risk breaking my old one) via environment variables (the same ones that "worked" with the new EB environment). It failed, and I got these errors:
2021-07-23T00:01:52.388Z] ERROR [13650] : Command execution failed: Activity failed. (ElasticBeanstalk::ActivityFatalError)

i am getting the same issue..
docker ps -a shows nothing running..
I was able to get one running in us-east-1 three days ago.. i am trying o get one working in ca-central-1 and i have this error.
edit: i stand corrected. not the same, not enough coffee yesterday...
try connecting your old Elastic Beanstalk deployment to RDS via environment variables but use this deployment file when upgrading https://github.com/metabase/metabase/files/6811226/metabase-aws-eb-deprecated-ElasticBeanstalk.zip istead of the one from the website (this does not try to install Cloudwatch from yum repo)
do you access the Elastic Beanstalk machine directly? please post the logs

ok your error is another one: AWS Inspector is not available in our region, try configuring the environment variables and then upgrading with https://github.com/metabase/metabase/files/6869156/metabase-aws-eb-without-inspector-ElasticBeanstalk.zip
Thanks, @Luiggi, but my old EB environment is using the deprecated version of Docker, so I need to update, and I don't want to incur the costs of leaving the old environment running alongside the new one.
With all these issues people are encountering, are there any plans for an updated version of Metabase to make updating easier (and maybe patch this redirect issue, which seems common with people who are decoupling), or more comprehensive troubleshooting documentation, or something that will help us resolve these issues? I'm thinking I may hold off on updating to 0.40.x until 0.41 is out…
Ok thanks, This worked for me.. I was able to get my metabase up and running in CA-Central, i didnt realize there was no AWS Inspector.. thanks!
We plan to fix the issues that aroused in this upgrade as we identified 3 right now:
We will try hard to provide a "simple" experience for Elastic Beanstalk users, but we can't be solving issues for deprecated platforms, you have to upgrade ASAP or AWS will do it forcefully at some point in time.
None of my issues have been because of the deprecated platform except for when you suggested I try using it as an experiment. I did try it, and I was able to update to 0.40.0 on the deprecated platform branch thanks to the modified file you provided that does not try to install Cloudwatch from yum repo. I then created a new snapshot of my RDS db, restored it, and connected it to the EB environment running on the new platform branch. Same issue: the EB url redirects to the subdomain, which points to the EB url.
Can anything be done about this redirect issue?
I'm reading again the whole thread to understand the issue better, so:
Right now you have the CNAME pointing to the old instance, what happens if you go to the URL of the the new instance in an incognito session?
By the way, what do you have configured in the Authorized javascript origins and authorized redirect uri's in the Google SSO config? https://www.metabase.com/docs/latest/administration-guide/10-single-sign-on.html#enabling-google-sign-in
The new instance forwards me to the subdomain/old instance.
"Authorized JavaScript origins" is the subdomain. "Authorized redirect URIs" is empty.
If on the Site URL (Settings -> Admin -> General-> Site URL) you have the CNAME, then you need to change the DNS to the new Elastic Beanstalk URL and wait till the DNS cache expires (or wait till it propagates). Have you tried this?
If on the Site URL you have the old elastic beanstalk URL, you need to change it to the new one (do a backup first so you can revert this change!)
