This discussion was created from the release v0.92.0-beta.

Thank you for the release!

I'm missing the TriliumNextNotes-v0.92.0-beta-windows-x64.zip in the assets list. Is the build still running or is it not available anymore?

[perfectra1n]

Sounds to me like a CSRF error, since CSRF issues respond with a 403. Can you show the output from your “inspect” panel, “network” tab, and what the request/response is when you try to sync your desktop app with the server @hulmgulm?

[pano9000]

hmm, we did not do any changes on the CSRF front between the last stable and this
CSRF is not realy used for that route:

route(GET, "/api/setup/status", [], setupApiRoute.getStatus, apiResultHandler);

edit: neither of those used middleware functions are returning an 403 status either

[pano9000]

@pano9000 , I guess we need to increase the sync version? No changes on my side, perhaps the CSRF changes?

could it be the added frontend options from my "friendly numbers" related features?

[pano9000]

was doing some additional checking: the only place where I could find a 403 status being set in the code is ./src/routes/error_handlers.ts:13, which does indeed have to do with CSRF as @perfectra1n suggests.

Not sure why that would be triggered here though?

also bit strange:
it should actually show the error via:

        res.send({
            message: err.message
        });

and not a full html response

apart from that:
GET /api/setup/status currently seems to be publicly accessible without any auth checking – not sure if it really should be?

[hulmgulm]

Thank you all. I found the issue. For security reasons, my reverse proxy is restricting access to the /notes/ directory based on the user agent header. This changed in 0.92.0-beta from TriliumNextNotes to TrilimNext Notes. Allowing that too, makes the client work with the server.

[kleutzinger]

I don't see this release on docker hub? Other betas have been up there. Just a heads up.

https://hub.docker.com/r/triliumnext/notes/tags?name=v0.92.0-beta

[eliandoran]

@kleutzinger , yes, the docker builds got broken due to an issue with ARM. Should be fixed now, just need to wait for the next beta/stable release.

Thanks for noticing.

[kotlasu]

Thanks for the update, especially for the (planned) Flatpak version (thanks a bunch @pano9000) - it’s going to be very useful on Project Bluefin distro :)

[pano9000]

@kotlasu Flatpak is available already, it's just the release via Flathub which isn't :-)
