Hello,
After upgrade 2.5.13 to 2.8.0 I found error “extras_tag.comments does not exist" and like "unsupported PGSQL version". Downgrade to 2.6.0 and up again to 2.8.0 resolve issue but when focus on racked devices link have wrong domain - netbox.backend instead netbox.mydomain.tld.
Don’t know how to fix that. Maybe someone have the same?

Never seen that, and the string "netbox.backend" doesn't occur anywhere in the Netbox source code.

Are you talking about the URL displayed when hovering over a racked item, i.e. at /dcim/racks/<N>/ ? That works correctly for me.

I think this is most likely a bug in your http proxy (nginx/apache) configuration. Does it forward to http://netbox.backend:xxxx/ by any chance? In that case, you need to configure your proxy to keep the original Host: header. I use Apache2, and have the setting "ProxyPreserveHost On".

Thank you, Brian for help!

Yes, I mean wrong URL part when hovering over racked item. It was rproxy issue. Thanks a lot!
