I can`t create new project (ERRO 500) after upgrade13.1.1-ee (a604fffd4ba)

How to Use GitLab Upgrade
1

I just upgrade my gitlab( docker ) to 13.1.1-ee and run the command gitlab-rake gitlab:storage:migrate_to_hashed .

Everything is right but when I click the "new project" link gose to the erro 500 page !

Then I found the “general setting” in admin area was the same erro.

/projects/new
/admin/application_settings/general

How can i fix it ?

Need for help !

Kind Regards
Thanks

I am also experiencing this issue. Any luck on solving this?

EDIT:

The same two URI locations fail for me as well.
I am using the latest official GitLab CE docker image.

I have tried edge, chrome, and brave browsers, clearing cache, etc.
I have also tried impersonating a non-admin user.

Log follows after trying to access the URI : projects/new:

The issue is documented in two seperate issues:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/225203
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/223958

Solution works for most, and is very simple - as admin user navigate to /admin/application_settings/repository#js-repository-storage-settings on your server instance.
Then click “Save Changes” (on the repository storage settings)

The solution was first published by Dennis Henry here:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/223958#note_367705087
