Hmm. Can you give me an idea of how you tried the upgrade?
@phenomlab as always.
./nodebb stop
git fetch
git reset --hard v2.8.10
./nodebb upgrade
@cagatay That should work. This is defintely permissions related. I’ll take a look at this later if ok with you (the site will need to be taken offline to attempt the upgrade).
@phenomlab when you are able, no worries about the shut donw web site. that site also yours 
@cagatay ok. Thanks
@cagatay upgrade completed, but needed to use root to do so
100% permissions related, and needs checking.
