After update, Zammad can't start: `require': cannot load such file -- action_dispatch (LoadError)

Hi,

Yesterday I updated my Debian 11 ticket server (apt update; apt upgrade), this also updated Zammad to 6.2.0.
Zammad is installed via repository.
Unfortunately after the update 3 services do not start:
systemctl --failed

UNIT                       LOAD   ACTIVE SUB    DESCRIPTION
● zammad-web-1.service       loaded failed failed zammad-web-1.service
● zammad-websocket-1.service loaded failed failed zammad-websocket-1.service
● zammad-worker-1.service    loaded failed failed zammad-worker-1.service

Trying to restart zammad-web-1.service:
systemctl restart zammad-web-1.service

I see this errors in journalctl -f:

I assume, there are some packages missing in this installation. As a last resort, I updated the whole system to Debian 12, but I get the same errors.

Any Ideas how to solve this errors?

After digging in to this issue, I found, I have two slightly different ruby versions on the system:

Ruby 3.1.0 and Ruby 3.1.3, which is the correct version for Zammad?

WalterHof · December 9, 2023, 11:37am

Now I cleared manually the package cache

systemctl stop zammad
mv /opt/zammad/tmp/cache/bootsnap /opt/zammad/tmp/cache/bootsnap_old

and restarted Zammad
systemctl restart zammad

Now Zammad starts without an error, unfortunately the web interface is not working, I get a blank page.

The command zammad run rails r "Cache.clear" also do not work, I get this error:

zammad run rails r "Cache.clear"
Please specify a valid ruby command or the path of a script to run.
Run 'rails runner -h' for help.

uninitialized constant Cache

Any ideas how to fix the uninitialized constant Cache error?

MrGeneration · December 9, 2023, 2:02pm

Cache.clear is obsolete since quite a while by now.
It is Rails.cache.clear.

WalterHof · December 9, 2023, 2:41pm

Thank you, zammad run rails r "Rails.cache.clear" worked.
Unfortunately in browser I only see a blank screen. Ctrl+Shft+R do not help.
Any ideas how to debug the blank screen issue?

WalterHof · December 9, 2023, 3:22pm

I solved this issue:

I downloaded the current 6.2. version with wget:
wget https://dl.packager.io/srv/deb/zammad/zammad/stable/debian/pool/main/zammad_6.2.0-1702052196.543b74f4.bookworm_amd64.deb
I did a manual upgrade installation:
dpkg -i zammad_6.2.0-1702052196.543b74f4.bookworm_amd64.deb
now, web interface works as expected.
