I can not find the issue here tbh. We do the update exactly as described by you above.

My update broke, used my backup and did the manual steps to get a working update.., but like I wrote above

...., at least if updating from v2.0.1 or older!

My update also failed.

I've attempted updates post v2.0.1 with some failures, can't recall how I got it working again priod but have never been certain it's actually updated since the app just shows as 'dev' or something similar.

Gave the instuctions in OP a go with no luck:

root@jellyseerr:/opt/jellyseerr# CYPRESS_INSTALL_BINARY=0 pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
 ERR_PNPM_UNSUPPORTED_ENGINE  Unsupported environment (bad pnpm and/or Node.js version)

Your Node version is incompatible with "/opt/jellyseerr".

Expected version: ^22.0.0
Got: v20.12.2

This is happening because the package's manifest has an engines.node field specified.
To fix this issue, install the required Node version.

[michelroegl-brunner]

Try to update your node version as stated in the error messsge.

Yeah I tried that, it upgraded node to 20.18.1 only, so I did some googling and tried
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_22.x | sudo -E bash -
apt-get install nodejs -y
then proceeded from where I left off with

CYPRESS_INSTALL_BINARY=0 pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
pnpm build
systemctl restart jellyseerr

Not sure if this was the correct way to go about it, but it seems to have worked

Can confirm that it also works for me. I think the script should upgrade the node version to 22.x.
