Netbox secrets store upgrade issue when moving from v3.1.11 to v3.2.x

[pveronneau]

I keep getting the same error when attempting to upgrade from the v3.1.11 into the v3.2.x version of Netbox. I have already run the migration scripts to satisfy the upgrade requirements, and have even tried the upgrade while evoking NETBOX_DELETE_LEGACY_DATA to no avail.

Applying database migrations (python3 netbox/manage.py migrate)...

I already ran across this post (#9097 (comment)) and netbox-secretstore received an update to correct this behavior. According to the previous post, netbox_plugin_extensions should no longer be required, and checking on that project shows the latest version at 1.1.1. Support for Netbox 3.2.x was not planned until 1.2.0, however that version has not yet been released.

Attempting to upgrade without the netbox_plugin_extensions module, ends in this error:

My primary question for @DanSheps is this, are we currently waiting on the 1.2.0 release of netbox_plugin_extensions, or has it been rendered obsolete? If it has been rendered obsolete, any assistance would be much appreciated.

Remove Netbox_plugin_extensions from your plugins and it should go away.

So it isn't in your PLUGINS = [] list at all?

[DanSheps]

Did you update the secretstore plugin?

[pveronneau]

the local_requirements.txt looks like this:

root@ip-10-20-1-18:/opt/netbox# cat local_requirements.txt
boto3
django-storages
netbox-secretstore

[pveronneau]

Did you update the secretstore plugin?

OH! I see, one moment, I'll remove it.

[pveronneau]

When upgrading from a previous version of netbox to 3.2.x make sure you remove the plugin netbox_plugin_extensions from both the configuration file and the local_settings.txt. I had forgotten to remove it from the configuration file. Thanks @DanSheps for pointing me in the right direction!
