I just tried updating my airbyte version following the steps outlined in the upgrading docker section. Now my container doesn't start, it says something about airbyte-bootloader exiting with code 255

It sounds like you're encountering an issue similar to those reported by other users when upgrading Airbyte. The error message about the
airbyte-bootloader
exiting with code 255 has been reported in multiple instances. Here are some steps and considerations based on the knowledge sources: 1. Check Environment Variables: - Ensure that all necessary environment variables are set correctly. For example, in one case, the error was due to a missing
DATABASE_PORT
environment variable. - Verify your
.env
file and make sure all required variables are defined. 2. Logs and Error Messages: - Review the logs for more detailed error messages. You can do this by running:
Copy code
shell      docker compose logs -f bootloader
- Look for any specific error messages that might indicate what is missing or misconfigured. 3. Upgrade Path: - Ensure you are following the correct upgrade path. Some versions require intermediate upgrades. For example, upgrading directly from
0.36.10-alpha
to
0.59.1
is not allowed; you must first upgrade to
0.37.0-alpha
(see [source](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/issues/38152)). 4. Docker Compose Configuration: - Make sure your
docker-compose.yaml
file is correctly configured. Here is an example snippet from a
docker-compose.yaml
file:
Copy code
yaml      version: "3.8"      x-logging: &default-logging        options:          max-size: "100m"          max-file: "5"        driver: json-file      services:        bootloader:          image: airbyte/bootloader:${VERSION}          logging: *default-logging          container_name: airbyte-bootloader          environment:            - DATABASE_PORT=5432
5. Permissions and Execution Issues: - If you are on an ARM64 architecture, there might be issues with binary execution. For example, the
temporal-sql-tool
might not execute correctly (see [source](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/issues/38340)). 6. Re-attempt the Upgrade: - Sometimes, re-attempting the upgrade process can resolve transient issues. Ensure you follow the steps precisely: 1.
docker-compose down
2. Fetch the latest version files. 3.
docker-compose up
If these steps do not resolve your issue, you might want to provide more specific log outputs or error messages for further assistance. You can also refer to the [Airbyte Documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/operator-guides/upgrading-airbyte/) for more detailed upgrade instructions.
