      @necrevistonnezr You have to delete the DNS entry manually in the DNS provider. What's hapenned is that the dns already has an entry for the subdomain. Cloudron will never overwrite existing DNS records.

      This is getting fixed with https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/issues/644. Cloudron will then overwrite DNS entries with that flag set.

      If the above is not the issue, maybe there is another app on that subdomain? (Also, check any redirects you have to set for other apps).

      Where am I supposed to delete the DNS entry? Is the "DNS provider" something in the cloudron control panel?

      I have no other apps / redirects regarding that subdomain.

        @necrevistonnezr - He means delete the DNS entry from your DNS service provider itself for the domain. So if you already have bitwarden.domain.com in your DNS listing for your domain, then remove the bitwarden entry and then re-create with Cloudron.

          That was not the issue since I did not have a subdomain entry in my DNS settings (I have a wildcard DNS entry). The issue was that cloudron-cli was not able to connect to my cloudron properly (TLS, https issues) for reasons I don't know (I told support about it).

          After using cloudron login --allow-selfsigned I was able to build and update the bitwarden...

            @necrevistonnezr Ah interesting, good to know you figured that out then. Normally when that error is seen (I came across it quite a lot when setting up new environments on Cloudron as I learned the platform), it was always because I had already defined a "www" subdomain in my DNS provider, for example, so it then needed me to remove it before it could create it automatically by itself.

              Ok. So I think I've just figured out the email issue, but don't have a fix yet.

              When using the non-smtps connection, the logs show that lettre, the Rust email library that Bitwarden_rs uses, recognizes that the server supports several authentication methods, including Authentication(Plain), which is what swacks uses when successfully sending on the same port. However, lettre refuses to use it because we aren't using an encrypted connection and it doesn't want to send credentials in the clear. (Checked here, defined as empty here).

              Unfortunately, using smtps is not a solution either because it appears that lettre is trying to validate the certificate, but that certificate is invalid.

              A patch to Bitwarden_rs may be required to tell lettre to allow sending credentials over an insecure connection using this method or by telling it to accept insecure certs.

              I'm working on a patch for Bitwarden_rs to allow insecure SSL connections so that it will accept a self signed cert.

                Also, it looks like MySQL support is available now. Once I get all the email support sorted out, I'll try to roll that in as well.

                  @iamthefij Ok. My bitwarden_rs patch works. I'm going to submit that upstream.

                      On another note... There is no Docker image built for MySQL support yet, so I'm writing a new Dockerfile that uses a multi stage built to compile Bitwarden_rs with MySQL support.

                          @fbartels yes. But not an image on Docker Hub that I can pull from. Instead I'm building a multistage build that looks a lot like that Dockerfile but with the an LDAP layer and the Cloudron layer.

                              @fbartels well, I guess I didn't look hard enough! (Edit: Looks like the 1.10.0 release was only 2 hours ago. No wonder I missed it. šŸ™‚ ) It would be good to roll those all into one image with multiple tags, but I can chat with them about that on Matrix.

                              Anyway, adding the multi-stage build wasn't terribly hard and cuts out an extra dependency on that build pipeline, which is probably a good thing for a security sensitive project.

                              Latest on my master is now fully operational. Working email, working ldap sync, working MySQL.

                              BIG WARNING! There is no migration path from SQLite to MySQL. You should export your vault to CSV or something and then re-import it after migration.

                                  @necrevistonnezr I saw that. Yea, it's possible to do, but it's not something that I think is worth automating given that it could be a bit finicky.

                                  If someone wants to do this, they are welcome to try using the console.

                                  I'm planning to just export and re-import myself.

                                    @iamthefij but import / export does not work for attachments, right? Or are these somehow migrateable?

                                      @necrevistonnezr hmm. I've got no clue. I don't have any attachments and only use Bitwarden to manage passwords.

                                        @iamthefij I've used your build with fixed emails and ldap and it installed well however I'm not sure how to get in.

                                        Bitwarden asks for email so I supply email corresponding to my Cloudron login and Cloudron's password but it says username or password is invalid. Can you suggest something?

                                          @lukaszj you should receive an invite email within a few min of the sync task running. I think it runs every 5 min. You'll need to click the link in that email to create your account.

                                            With all the activity on this thread, is it likely that Bitwarden will see release in the App Store any time soon? Even as an "unstable" package for easier trial by others?
