Hi Hicham, Great questions, I think you have a chicken and egg situation here. I presume you used the ariel's ppa to install? If this is the case then you will need to edit the ppa sources to the latest source which is
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:geonode/release then perform the update In the event you are using Ariel's version which is ancient, it may be wise to do a back up before doing the update. The following is a bash script i use for doing backups. What it does is it back up the geoserver dir, and the database. Could highlight for you some of the important commands. https://github.com/jmwenda/geonode-backup/blob/master/geonode-backup So during the upgrade process there are some table attributes that need to be altered. This is because doing this during the upgrade proved troublesome. The maps_mapslayer table holds information on layers that make up a map. The two columns in the old version were of a different data type hence the need for the change with the upgrade. On the error, I presume this is to deal with the Postgres configuration. Is the Postgresql accepting connections? Great on the translations!. Not sure anyone is doing anything here but perhaps we need to confirm that sphinx/readthedocs does not provide some language support. On reading the readthedocs manual, it seems not to have language support. Though I have seen implementations where the different languages are supported.
