So, I finally installed Watchtower to auto update my containers. I was a little hesitant because just letting apps auto update kind of makes me a little nervous. Even Windows updates give me bouts of trepidation. Everything went well, there was a little hiccup with Netdata but resolved in less than 5 minutes.

My question is that there are four remaining containers that haven’t been updated: Speedtest Tracker, Portainer, Doppler Task, and Dockge.

2025-04-19T06:00:46.510622594Z INFO[38092] Session done                                  Failed=0 Scanned=48 Updated=0 notify=no

2025-04-19T12:00:47.755915129Z INFO[59694] Session done                                  Failed=0 Scanned=48 Updated=0 notify=no
2025-04-19T14:00:50.046498408Z INFO[66896] Session done                                  Failed=0 Scanned=48 Updated=0 notify=no

Is this indicative of an issue? Do I just need to update these four manually or will Watchtower eventually update them?

Additionally, has anyone ever had any problems with auto updating? It does make me a bit nervous, however I think I will get used to relying on Watchtower.

    These are the Watchtower logs so far. https://pastes.io/watchtower

    I didn’t see anything remarkable other than the error for Netdata but I got that fixed:

    NFO[30906] Found new netdata/netdata:latest image (6376ffeda44a)

      You’re being rate limited by Docker Hub. Give it some time and they’ll all get updated. Maybe tweak your settings so not everything is attempting an update at the same time.

        Thought I had answered you this morning, but apparently not. I did see the rate limit entry, but I thought that rate limits are like 100 pulls every 6 hours and I certainly haven’t exceeded 100. I just checked tho, and all but two have updated, so as you say, it’ll eventually get around to it. Thank you for the input.
