Cause of problem
/usr/share/gems/gems/foreman_rescue-4.0.0/lib/foreman_rescue/engine.rb line 28

Tried solution, FAILED
foreman-installer -i
Disable foreman-rescue plugin

Expected result
Removal of foreman-rescue plugin

Actual result
foreman-rescue plugin remains in filesystem, problem not solved.

Working solution
Manual removal of foreman-rescue plugin via at first disabling plugin in foreman-installer and then removing it from filesystem manually:

sudo rm -rf /usr/share/gems/gems/foreman_rescue-4.0.0
sudo rm /usr/share/gems/specifications/foreman_rescue-4.0.0.gemspec
sudo rm /usr/share/foreman/bundler.d/foreman_rescue.rb
sudo reboot

Yes, i know, restarting services would have helped too. Just rebooting at this point was faster solution for me.

Sorry for the inconvenience…

I had a look at it and fixed it in: fixes error during settings rendering because method is not found by laugmanuel · Pull Request #28 · dm-drogeriemarkt/foreman_rescue · GitHub
As soon as it’s merged, I’ll prepare the required packaging PRs to get the fixed version into Foreman 3.9 / 3.10 and develop

foreman_rescue 4.0.1 was released and is now part of foreman develop.

Packaging for Foreman 3.9 and Foreman 3.10 is ongoing.
