Upgrade netbox from 3.5.0 to 3.7.8

[aacunha]

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to update my netbox install, from 3.5 to 3.7.8 and after that, to 4.2

At this moment, i'm stuck in update to 3.7.8, receiving the error:

ImportError: cannot import name 'htmx_partial' from 'utilities.htmx' (/opt/netbox-3.7.8/netbox/utilities/htmx.py)

i'm following this guide:
https://netboxlabs.com/docs/netbox/en/stable/installation/upgrading/

`
My config is:

root@netbox-teste:/opt# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS
Release: 20.04
Codename: focal

root@netbox-teste:/opt# python3 --version

postgres@netbox-teste:~$ psql
psql (12.16 (Ubuntu 12.16-0ubuntu0.20.04.1))

check your compatiblity with the netbox plugins, for me that's usually the culprit if upgrades go wrong.
in the end you will also need at least postgres 13, so update that one in the meantime
