Release: 2.1.0.111 (Canary) 2025-03-15

I’m using docker (podman), should I compare around 500 dll’s which are inside the pulled image ?

I was mostly poking to get an idea of how to reproduce this.

So the setup is:

• Use 2.1.0.110
• Choose a password
• Use 2.1.0.111 (or 2.1.0.112)
• Try to log in, and it fails?

But since you are using Docker, could it be that you get different Duplicati-server.sqlite files for each version?

no. i used the same. i also installed a clean version (2.1.0.111) and had the same issue there.

I refreshed the GUI and was not allowed to login using the password I’d been using previously. I tried clicking the tray icon > Open which opened a new Chrome tab and was presented with a new (to me) set up a password page (even though I’d already set one up).

That indicates that you are on a new database? Was your backup configurations already in there?

Not a new database, I just upgraded versions.
Yes, the only backup configuration I had on that PC was already in there.

Any idea about not being able to Continue forward on the first page of the edit configuration?

Question: the GUI for the beta is suggesting a new version (v2.1.0.5 - Stable). Is the beta channel no longer being used? What are the various “channels” moving forward? I’d assumed it was canary|beta|stable. Thanks!

The channels are canary, experimental, beta, stable. Due to a bug in 2.1.0.3 and 2.1.0.4 that could cause files to silently fail uploading, the channels currently all point to the stable release. At a later time they will point to their channel versions again.

Thanks for the update!

So, I did some further tests.

1. I deleted the content of my data directory, means I started with a clean install
2. Installed 2.1.0.112
3. Login not possible
4. Installed 2.1.0.5
5. Logon ok
6. Installed 2.1.0.111
7. Logon not possible
8. Installed 2.1.0.110
9. Logon ok

Used the same docker settings (Duplicati data is persisted in /nas/Podman/Duplicati):

-v /nas/Podman:/data
...
-e SETTINGS_ENCRYPTION_KEY=changeme \
-e DUPLICATI__WEBSERVICE_PASSWORD=changeMe!12 \

It seems, there is an issue from 2.1.0.111 onwards with the “DUPLICATI__WEBSERVICE_PASSWORD” in docker.

EDIT:
Unfortunately, I cannot find any valuable logfile. journalctl shows only the start entries from podman and there I don’t see any differences between the versions.

I have only the browser log from a failed login.

Same login fail (docker). Works if rollback or go stable.

@Taomyn

I can see the dll listed

Does it work now, when the file exists?

No it still failed and also in .112 but a different flavour of Linux: Release: 2.1.0.112 (Canary) 2025-03-26 - #4 by Taomyn

After setting the password, I was in. I wanted to edit the only backup configuration I have on this PC, but when on the first page (name, description, etc.) I cannot continue from there. I.e., the button to continue is lighter in color and unclickable.

I think I missed this part in my previous response. I think this is on the ngclient UI? (The one with a D icon top-left).

If so, I can reproduce this only if the name is empty. If you do have a name, try editing it and see if the button lights up. If not, you can also click the navigation dots above to jump to the page you want.

If it still fails, you can click “Revert to NGAX client” in the menu on the left to get the previous UI. But I would like to fix the issue. Do you have additional details on this?

Thanks to all for reporting this.

I have tracked it down to a version problem:

Incorrect versions of some libraries in non-GUI builds

Minor issue with remote ngclient…

1. Open hostname:8200, get known issue of blank screen
2. Change URL to ngax
3. GUI prompts for password
4. Enter correct password
5. GUI reverts to ngclient

Having switched the URL to ngax and having gone through the password dialog, I would expect the GUI to stay with ngax rather than reverting to ngclient.
