hi all,
after upgrade ubuntu 18.04 to ubuntu 20.04 I cannot start foreman anymore.
installed version on 18.04 was 2.5.4 do I have upgrade foreman too ?
thanks in advance
2.5 should work on 20.04, but it’s hard to say without any output and details how you upgraded.

Could it be that your foreman package is still the one from 18.04? (We don’t provide a good numbering of versions, sadly).
Can you post the output from apt policy foreman?
I think its.
apt policy foreman
foreman:
Installed: 2.5.4-2
Candidate: 2.5.4-2
Version table:
*** 2.5.4-2 100
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
That is lacking any repo information. Interesting.
Do you have a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/foreman.list or similar with something like:
deb http://deb.theforeman.org/ focal 2.5
deb http://deb.theforeman.org/ plugins 2.5
in it?

I think I know whts the issue, the upgrade tool from ubuntu commented out the repos in sources:
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/foreman.list, I commented the repos in and run apt update && apt upgrade.
you was faster 
, Ill do that now 
unfortunatily it doesnt work, after update and upgrade. Im trying to start forman I get same above errors in journalct.
when I try to run bundler:
bundler
Could not locate Gemfile
Can you post the output of apt policy foreman once more? And an ls -alh /usr/share/foreman?

The error should be different now tho, as on focal we use /usr/bin/bundle2.7 not /usr/bin/bundle. Can you paste the exact error from after the upgrade?
here is the error:

Please don’t run gem install, this will break your system.
oh ok thanks
Once you have cleaned this up, can you please run DEBUG=1 /var/lib/dpkg/info/foreman.postinst and post all output here please?
it works now! I could not post the output because I run the command in “screen”, after it finish I start the foreman and it works!
Should I run the command again and save the output to file ?
No, on a new run the output will be different.
If it works, cool.
For some reason, the package upgrade didn’t trigger a run of this script (but it should).

you are right, but I will go to backup and do that again in next days, if you want I can do that next time ?
maybe if I send you the output you can fix that in next versions
And thank you so much @evgeni
