NetBox version

v3.4.0

Python version

3.10

Steps to Reproduce

  1. My Netbox instance has been running on v3.3.7 for some time now just fine.
  2. Attempted to upgrade to the latest v3.5.3 but have been running into the following error

TypeError: UniqueConstraint.__init__() takes 1 positional argument but 4 positional arguments (and 1 keyword-only argument) were given

I've tried a few different upgrade paths but nothing seems to be working, ex:

v3.3.7 -> v3.4.0
v3.3.7 -> v3.3.10 -> v3.4.0

Everything works up until I go to v3.4 and I start seeing the above error.

I had 1 existing ConfigContext that I deleted that I thought could have been a problem which I deleted, same issue afterwards. Not sure how exactly to read the message, do I have duplicate Device name in my DB ?

Expected Behavior

Expecting to be able run my Netbox instance from v3.4 normally

Observed Behavior

A TypeError Exception was raised

Guessing this was due to me using an older version of Django, manually ran a pip3 install -r requirements.txt and things are now working for me. Thanks for the hint!

You should idealy be running this in a venv and rebuilding the entire venv with ./upgrade.sh when you upgrade instead.

Yeah agreed, this is a fairly "old" deployment we've been upgrading since prolly around v1.4. Prolly need to re-deploy with some of the more up-to-date methods/configurations. But anyway thanks again!
