Every time I update bitwarden via docker I am left with 2 zombie processes. As I’m running the self-hosted site on Ubuntu the parent process is /opt/mssql/bin/sqlserv

If I stop the parent the zombie processes disappear, but reappear within a minute

Hi poldi,
just having an issue with my Selfhosted environment myself I saw your post. I also have these 2 zombie processes and do not know why those are popping up. Unfortunately I have no solution here.

I’m running bitwarden V 2025.2.0 on Docker V 28.0.0. on Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS

My ./bwdata/env/global.override.env contains the following sql related entry

globalSettings__sqlServer__connectionString="Data Source=tcp:mssql,1433;Initial Catalog=vault;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=sa;Password=donotshow;Multiple Active Result Sets=False;Connect Timeout=30;Encrypt=True;Trust Server Certificate=True"
