    @girish is it possible that when the cloudron image updates, the old container is running still or something? @imc67 I'm almost 100% certain a fresh install would work....

      @imc67 Did I understand correctly that I should send a test email and this will reproduce the bug?

      Works for me.. but still playing around. It seems the new default format is HTML Color but in your github issue it is HTML. That doesn't seem to matter though.

        steps to reproduce:

        1. create a watcher on https://changedetection.io/time.php
        2. set it to Chrome and settings like this:
          Scherm­afbeelding 2025-11-03 om 12.41.10.png
        3. set it to check for every 5 minutes
        4. notification method: email via mailtos://user:pw@domain.xx?smtp=mail.domain.xx&user=x@x.xx

          If I make a backup in Changedetection, delete the app, reinstall fresh and restore the backup will everything also general settings en mailtos: work again?

            @imc67 that works for me as well.

            I think it's probably related to some migration logic from older version. I am trying a Change Detection from 2-3 weeks ago and see if it's reproducible .

                well this doesn't work!! There is a way to make a backup and download a zipfile but, I uninstalled, fresh install and wanted to import the backup zip ... there is no functionality for that or I completely missed it 😞

                So I imported on the new app a app-backup, after that the issue is still there

                  You have to manually upload to the server's file system and import it from there. you didn't miss this, it's not implemented (well, so far, we haven't planned to implement it).

                    Beside the old app (imported with issue) I created a fully new one and checked: this one works!!!

                    So there must be something during almost 3 years of updating that went wrong

                      @girish I meant the backup inside ChangeDetection, there you can create a backup and export it as zip. But inside ChangeDetection I don't see a function to import that zip ... or I overlooked in the hurry

                        Ok, I "solved" it by creating a new app on a new domain, manually match all settings and watches, tested (WORKED!) and then did a Cloudron backup and imported that backup on the app at the original domain (of the "faulty" app).

                        Result: I have a freshly new app with previous settings on the original app-domain.

                        Case closed for me ... but the issue is not really solved for all those that didn't do this.

                              Tried old 0.45.9, - Plaintext test

                              • Set up "mailto://me@localhost" on test SMTP server as "Global notification setting", and "Text" notification type
                              • Watch: Added the time.php test with "system default" notification format

                              shut down, switch to 0.50.38, start up, updates ran,
                              SMTP test was OK no placeholders

                              @imc67 can you email me your url-watches.json again? then i can compare what settings are different maybe
