Change Details

I was trying to perform a buster -> bookworm upgrade on instance wm-bot-pg2 within the wm-bot cloud VPS project. An error occurred while upgrading, which resulted in me losing sudo access, and I couldn't get back in after logging out. @taavi was able to get in via console, and then rebooted, and now even they can't get in. Unfortunately to my knowledge we don't have a back of the postgresql data. If the data can be recovered, I would appreciate it. Text logs still exist, and so not the end of the world, but not being able to recover this would mean that old logs aren't accessible via the log browser. I think the lesson I learned is that I need to sudo su first before performing upgrades. I was told to ping @Andrew about this, so here we go.
