Service unavailable ERF64-6496 - There are migrations pending in the system.

I just updated my Foreman server and reboot, then this happened when I accessed the web console:

Service unavailable ERF64-6496 [Foreman::MaintenanceException]: There are migrations pending in the system.

This was the first time I’ve seen this message, and possibly because I haven’t done the update frequently enough. Fortunately, according to this blog post, it should be relatively easy to fix.

[root@foreman ~]# sudo foreman-rake db:migrate

[root@foreman ~]# sudo foreman-rake db:seed
API controllers newer than Apipie cache! Run apipie:cache rake task to regenerate cache.
User with login admin already exists, not seeding as admin.

As suggested, I also ran apipie:cache rake task to generate cache.
