💻 Bitwarden Unified Beta (feedback thread)

[Leslie]

Hi,
Out of the box installation, I have an organization license and entered it to create the organization
Yet the Vault menu always keeps loading, New Item doesn’t work and New Collection keeps loading as well

I’m running a MySQL 8.0.32 on 2023.2.0 beta
SSL is on and company certificate is working ok

However in the browser Ctrl+Alt+J gives me a lot of these errors on the page:

Edit: Important to mention is that I’m running the container in an Azure VM with IPvlan mode

@Leslie Same issue with Synology running diskstation 7.1.1. Family license but same outcome. Here is the bug in detail. Collections cannot be managed in family organization · Issue #2750 · bitwarden/server (github.com)

I was getting very similar errors as you in the browser dev tools.

[Chad_Vondra]

Also I believe this is a related bug. Not sure if they have it fixed or not. It’s marked needs QA. But both of these issues appear to be caused by the same if not similar issues. [PM-1191] collections cannot be managed in family organization by coroiu · Pull Request #2765 · bitwarden/server (github.com)

Maybe this bug will start to get a little more priority and release attention since its applicable to both Paid Family and Paid Organization licensing.

Hi, thanks for pointing all this out.
My trial is about to end and paying for a Premium Enterprise

So it would be nice to have a working Organization

[Chad_Vondra]

Personally I’d be more than willing to test it from a /dev pull. This is EXACTLY the same thing that I requested and the issue I have. I was testing it on family but plan on purchasing Premium Enterprise as well. I was told to install the non-unified server version which we will end up doing but it is more involved in standing that up. I realize this is ‘beta’ but man a show stopping ability needs to be addressed. This isn’t a bug that is just irritating its debilitating.

[Leslie]

I agree
But that being said, the functionality does work through the Bitwarden client app (and browser plug-in)

[Chad_Vondra]

You can’t manage or add users from the app or browser plugin. Not sure if you’ve checked but that bug affects inviting/adding and managing users along with any addition or modification to vaults. If you can see the existing org vault that’s great but it limits all other functionality besides daily usage of the vault.

I’m having the same issue as Leslie. I’m self-hosting on Rocky Linux 9 & MariaDB with Unified. I get the spinners in the Organizations area. I’m using a cert that I generated from our internal CA. Instead of using the image command in my docker-compose.yml file I’m calling “build: .” and then in my Dockerfile I’m copying the CA cert, Bitwarden cert + and key, and running update-ca-certificates.

I tried switching to SQLite to see what would happen. Different bug!? When I upload my license file to add my organization it tells me it was successful, but the organization doesn’t add. If I attempt it again, it says another organization is using my license file. With MariaDB the license file was ingested and the organization adds, I just get spinners in the Organization area. With SQLite the organization doesn’t even add.

I’ve installed the beta version of the unified self-hosted container. So far, I’m very happy with it.

The one thing I can not figure out is backups. The announcement page points to the self-hosted backup page, but the bwdata file doesn’t exist.

I’m using mariadb. Should I just run a mysql backup command and then backup the directory mounted to /etc/bitwarden on the bitwarden container?

Thanks.

Jeff

Thanks for the confirmation friend…
