Description

I've upgraded Gitea today the usual way by stopping the service, replacing binary and starting the service again. (From 1.12.4 to 1.12.5)

Gitea crashes when indexer runs. I have no idea why this happened. Maybe failed database migration on my end? That's the only relevant log I could find above.

I've disabled repo indexer and things started working again.

This is a duplicate of #12379

You will need to run the following SQL on the database:

ALTER TABLE language_stat MODIFY COLUMN language VARCHAR(50)

This is fixed in 1.13 with a migration using #12396, (with additional fixes in #12427, #12445) but migrations are not backportable.

Maybe we could add a doctor or fix sub command gitea doctor fix 12379 which is backportable.

closed as duplicated.
