N8n doesn´t refresh after update to 1.1.1 version

Describe the problem/error/question

Guys, can you help me? After updating n8n to 1.1.1 version (by npm in ubuntu 20.04), my server doesn´t refresh. When logging in, It says I´m still have 2 updates to do and version remains 0.236.3.

I.ve tried to reboot server, to stop and restart, but nothing changes… when asking for version, terminal retrievies 1.1.1 version, so the update took efect, but nothing changed at browser´s view.

Sorry in advance if this is a dumb question… I´ve been searching in other treads but didn´t find a “how to” that could work for issue.

Thanks!

What is the error message (if any)?

Hi @Daniel_Angelini :wave: Welcome to the community :tada:

Do you have any server logs you might be able to share that could shed some light on what’s going on for you?

Hi @Daniel_Angelini, how exactly are you running n8n? Is there a chance you have updated the npm version of n8n, but are actually running n8n through Docker for example?

Yes, that was the problem.

So I upgraded NPM and Node.js to V18.

But now my n8n doesn´t persist and I need to stay with ssh opened while I´m using n8n.

I decided to uninstall that and reinstall by docker compose, and now the problem is:

composen8n-n8n-1 | Error: EACCES: permission denied, open ‘/home/node/.n8n/crash.journal’

I saw that there is a code line for docker in the n8n 1.0 migration guide and I´ve tried that, but seems like for docker compose It isn´t working.

Is there any code line to fix this? follows some print screens of my docker compose logs:

Let me know if I need to start another thread, or we can deal with this here.

Tnx a lot!

EACCES: permission denied, open ‘/home/node/.n8n/crash.journal

I saw that there is a code line for docker in the n8n 1.0 migration guide and I´ve tried that, but seems like for docker compose It isn´t working.

The line in the migration guide at n8n v1.0 migration guide | n8n Docs should fix permission problems by making the new default user node the owner of yor n8n data directory. Which errors are you seeing when running this command?

And how exactly does your docker compose config look like?

I just run the code line, but nothing changes… I´m still got the same issue.

For now, I decided to quit from docker compose installation. It doesn´t work in anyway.

I started a New VPS google cloud to install n8n by npm. Now it´s working.

But the connection is getting lost about 5 to 7 minutes after I quit ssh´s VPS.

Is there any step that I´m not doing well? I´ve searched and found something about websockets, but didn´t understand if this is a must to do step for those who decided for npm installation.

Can u help me with this? N8n is running but got connection lost all te times now.

tnx
