Hello! I am self-hosting an Appwrite instance and ran into this issue https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite/issues/9906 I saw that the bug has already been fixed, but not in version 1.7.4. When I tried upgrading to 1.8.0-RC1, the Appwrite console only shows a 500 error.

Has anyone successfully upgraded to 1.8.0-RC1? Any tips on how to resolve this error would be greatly appreciated 🙏

TL;DR
Stay at version 1.7.4 until the non-RC 1.8 comes out. The issue may fix itself with time. Avoid upgrading to RC manually as it requires migrations.

RC is Release Candidate. Not publicly available so you should stay at 1.7.4 until non-RC 1.8 comes out

Oh, I see. So I’ll need to wait until 1.8 is officially released for this bug to be fixed? Is there any way I can get a slightly newer build (with the fix already merged) before the stable release?

Yes

And I don't recommend doing that as it requires migrations

I waited a day and it fixed itself. I think it's because of the cache.

Yes, the non-RC will have that fixed

Great! Since my app is still in active development, I think I am going to RC😃
