Issues updating promgen version to 0.60.0 on Centos7

Also note that this upgrade would be using the same redis/mysql instance.

I was able to get the bootstrap to work on versions 0.57 and below, however the migrate function would not work with errors regarding MySQLdb:

File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/MySQLdb/__init__.py", line 84, in Connect
    return Connection(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/MySQLdb/connections.py", line 179, in __init__
    super(Connection, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs2)
MySQLdb._exceptions.OperationalError: (2002, "Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (115)")

The 0.57 will run with some issues and the "service" page will give an internal error:

I don't really understand the bootstrap and migrate component of this. Are they absolutely necessary?

In my mind, this should be plug and play after pulling the docker image since I'm mounting a working configuration from ~/.config/promgen.

I don't have a lot of time to debug this right now, but here are a few quick thoughts.

docker-compose-bootstrap is mostly just to have a simple docker-compose demo. Typically you wouldn't need to run that again for just an update.

docker-compose-bootstrap basically runs until promgen check 2>/dev/null in a loop, to check the database connection before continuing. I would check your database settings (Check DATABASE_URL environment variable)

Upgrades should generally just be

1. Pull and run new image
2. Run docker exec -it <container image> promgen migrate to update database

Thanks for the response, @kfdm!

The command to update the database after the new image is pulled and run works flawlessly. I think the upgrade instructions should be added somewhere in the README.

I still have issues with the python3.9 versions (0.58+), but will submit another issue for that.
