Does the Metabase container have Internet access? If it doesn’t, it can’t check Metabase’s website for updates.
How do I update Postgre correctly?
PostgreSQL major version upgrades are non-trivial, it involves either a dump & restore or using pg_upgrade. Dump & restore is likely the easiest, especially if the databases are small. This post is a good summary of the steps specific to Docker.
I’m trying to find it, can’t see it as a post in discourse, I think it may have been on the back off a github issue/email chain. Point being I experience the same issue and I did raise it. My instance has internet access. For now I just go and look at the release pages and when I see a new version, decide if I manually do it or not.
Metabase has weekly releases so its just part of my schedule to check it now. I do what the other poster is doing and monitor the release notes page.
We need to know if Metabase can successfully hit its website to check for a version update. I don’t know what the URL is it hits, though. I don’t recall if it logs anything if it can’t run the check. You can see when the check runs, it’s a job called metabase.task.upgrade-checks.job. Looking at my flow logs, at that time I had an outbound connection to a Cloudfront IP address.
