WebDav No Longer works after Electric Eel

After updating to Electric Eel webdav no longer works. App shows it is running and no settings changed but when i try to login with user and password i get 401 unauthorized.

Did your Webdav app automatically migrate from 24.04? Are you running any other migrated apps and are they working?

I did automatically migrate. Since it didnt’t work i ended up deleting the app and setting it up again from electric eel.

It still doesn’t work.

Same behavior with unauthorized?

Does it work if you turn off authentication in the app settings and skip login?

I can try but I cant run it like that because it is publicly accessible. I use webdav for my remote clients to backup machines using duplicati.

I’m just wondering if you’re able to access the port and it’s just an issue with authentication or if it’s a bigger issue with the install

I can access the port. When i go to browser and type it in it gives me the popup for asking for username and password. So the service is running and accessible just cant login.

In that case I’d suggest a bug report. There may be an authentication bug in the BETA.

Where do i submit the bug?

Either in the UI or just scroll to the top of any forum page for the Report a Bug link. Submit the issue in Jira, after you do so you’ll get an automated comment with a link to a secure upload service to include a debug file from the system so we can investigate.

After removing authentication in the webdav app i have access. For the time being i have set my reverse proxy to use authentication.

This is a temp fix as it leaves the ip:port open. The only thing accessible from internet is my reverse proxy but i don’t like the idea of having the application itself with no authentication. I submitted bug but the replied it was closed with no change.

I see the ticket. It was closed because your system has developer tools enabled and OS level changes. For what it’s worth, I installed webdav and was able to log in without issue. I would recheck your configured user name and password in the Edit screen to start. Otherwise, if you are able to reproduce the issue on a clean install of 24.10, we’d be happy to look at it.

I Have always used dev tools. I have to in order to run Prometheus-node-exporter. They don’t have an app or a way to run it natively. I am running the same exact setup as i was before the update. Is there anything else i can do to test this. I don’t really have the option to do a clean install or downgrade as i use zfs over iscsi for proxmox and this truenas instant has all my vm drives.

Prometheus node exporter has instructions for docker and docker compose.

Seems to me that it’d work from a sandbox too

I run prometheus on docker just not the exporter. I have a stack on my vms that does grafana cadvisor and prometheus. I have set up my homelab in a way that truenas only handles docker contianers based on the mass storage hosted on truenas. All of my other containers run on my vms in docker swarm for high availability between my 2 proxmox nodes.

Webdav just released update in truenas and all is well. Authentication works fine again.
