HA UI not starting following upgrade

Configuration
1

I’ve just upgraded from HA v0.65.0 (Docker) to the current HA version on Lubuntu 18.04. I’ve spent a couple of hours modifying or removing parts of my config which were causing errors, and now get a clean bill of health from the config checker. The problem is that the HA GUI will not start. It did originally start in safe mode, which allowed my to debug my config, but will not now start at all.
This is what I got when I checked my config:

myuser@myuser-VirtualBox:~$ sudo docker run -it --rm -v /home/myuser/homeassistant:/config -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro homeassistant/amd64-homeassistant hass -c /config --script check_config
starting version 3.2.4
Testing configuration at /config
myuser@myuser-VirtualBox:~$

I’ve tried a reboot but it didn’t help. Any tips for what I should try next to fix the issue?

Here is my HA log:

Between 0.65 and 2017.7.x there have been a lot of database migrations. It can take several hours. If there are no important things in history you want to keep, stop HA, delete your database and try again.

Thanks - I stopped HA and deleted the database. Still no luck with the UI starting though (10 minutes after I started the server). The current log is below.

This could be a coincidence, but my original instance of HA (v0.65.0), which I have running in a different ESXi VM, will now no longer startup the GUI either.
Could it be that the two instances are competing for resources and that’s what is preventing both of them loading the GUI? Each VM has a different IP address, but the 2nd (upgraded) VM was originally cloned from the first.
