I will fix your self hosted n8n errors and upgrade n8n to v2 safely on docker


About this gig
Is your self-hosted n8n broken, or are you afraid to upgrade to n8n v2? I fix the server side of n8n: Docker, SSL, webhooks, reverse proxy, database and the v2 upgrade.
n8n v2 changed security defaults and moved Code node execution into separate task runners. On Docker, that means your setup needs updating, not just a version bump. I handle it safely.
WHAT YOU GET
- Root-cause diagnosis and a tested fix, explained in plain English
- Container crashes, SSL errors, webhook URLs and proxy issues fixed
- Full backup first, including your encryption key, with a rollback plan
- n8n Migration Report reviewed before anything changes (Standard+)
- Docker Compose updated for v2 with task runners (Standard+)
- Broken workflows repaired after the upgrade (Standard+)
- SQLite to PostgreSQL move and automated backups (Premium)
WHY THIS GIG
Most n8n fixers work inside workflows. I work on the server they run on, so the fix holds after the next update too.
If I can't fix a Basic issue, I cancel the order with a full refund.
Please message me first with your error message or a screenshot.

FAQ
Should I message you before ordering?
Yes, please. Send the error message, a screenshot and how you installed n8n. I'll confirm the right package, so you never pay for the wrong one.
What happens if you can't fix my issue?
If I can't fix a Basic issue, I cancel the order with a full refund. I also tell you honestly before starting if something looks outside the package.
Is upgrading to n8n v2 risky?
It can be, because v2 changes security defaults and how Code nodes run. That's why I take a full backup first and review n8n's Migration Report before changing anything.
Can I go back to v1 if something breaks?
Yes. Before upgrading I back up your database, data folder and encryption key. If needed, I restore that backup on your previous version.
Why does my encryption key matter?
n8n uses it to decrypt your saved credentials. Without it, every credential must be re-entered. I back it up and confirm it matches before any change.
What access do you need?
A temporary sudo user with my SSH key, sent in the order chat. For workflow fixes, access to your n8n editor. Remove my access after delivery.
Will my workflows keep working after v2?
Most do. The Migration Report shows which ones are affected, and I fix those as part of Standard or Premium, up to the package limit.
Do you fix n8n Cloud issues?
This Gig focuses on self-hosted n8n on Docker. For n8n Cloud workflow errors, message me and I'll tell you if I can help.
Will you move my execution history to PostgreSQL?
Workflows and credentials move over. Old execution logs usually don't, and they're rarely needed. I'll confirm with you first.
How do I stop this happening again?
Pin your n8n version, back up automatically and update on a schedule. I include those steps, or I can do it monthly for you.
