Would like to help. PM you as well

OK. A build with user authentication is now up on the download server (and dockerhub for docker users). The branch for this test is called userauth (as opposed to latest).

Bare-metal users will have the easiest time installing, because you just need to download the userauth package instead of the latest package, and then install/update as usual.

Docker users will likely find it harder to make this switch. If you are using docker-compose, you can just change the image name in your config file from latest to userauth; then update (docker-compose pull) and start. But for NAS users and those not using docker-compose, you will need to rebuild your container. You can keep your configs and storage data; just make sure your new container points to the same directory where all that's stored (everything in the container configuration should be the same). See the installation instructions for reference, and look at/capture the settings of your current container before you launch into rebuilding it with the new image.

To configure access control, see the documentation.

If you run into any showstoppers, just rename your users.yaml file to something else (e.g. Xusers.yaml or users.yaml-disabled and restart Reactor, and that will disable access control. Otherwise, this release is identical to 24115, and you can switch between the two without problems.

@toggledbits am getting Not Found at http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8111/reactor/en-US/login.html

Steps taken:

• Installed 24115
• Received alert to later build and realized I sorted in the wrong direction at \download - resorted, installed 24117
• Copied user.yaml-dist to \config
• Cleared browser cache
• Restarted Reactor - nada change other than version to userauth-24117-9f164e8f
• Renamed user.yaml-dist to user.yaml in \config
• Cleared browser cache
• Restarted Reactor
• Not Found at http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8111/reactor/en-US/login.html
• Confirmed version running is userauth-24117-9f164e8f

I know it's something simple I missed - others would have caught this sooner if it were on MSRs side.

EDIT: Ok, a weird thing: my API calls via Reactions out to two different wx systems returned null until I rolled back to latest-24115-55b591da

Did you turn on HTTPS? What's your baseurl and use_tls settings look like?

[tamorgen]

@toggledbits, I'm having a similar issue as @gwp1 but mine is one step more complicated. I am using cloudflare add on on Home Assistant (on a separate server) for access to my server remotely, which serves the SSL connection, so even if the page is http, it'll serve it up as https. What would I need to do in order to make this work in my situation?

Edit: For clarification on my question I did create a reactor.crt and reactor.key file, switched the base url and added the lines to the reactor.yaml file. I am also getting the Not Found error, running 24117. The more complicated step will involve Cloudflare, but it may just be as simple as getting the local setup done first.

Edit 2: Okay, Cloudflare isn't an issue. I read what was said about renaming the users.yaml file to something else, and once I did that, the Not Found error went way. I just can't get the login page to serve up. My https connection is working fine.

Looking in the logs, looks like the login.html page is missing from the path.

I looked in the tar.gz file on my desktop, and I'm not seeing the login.html in the reactorui directory. That seems the to be the source of the issue.

[tamorgen]

@toggledbits,
So something is also going on with running reactions with the autoversion. They are hanging and not running. Immediately after restarting, the reactions run, however, within a few minutes, those reactions are hanging.

I even tried manually going into one of the rules (a simple rule for turning on a light) and ran the reaction, and it's not working.

I reverted back to the "lastest" release, and the automations are working again.

Oy. OK. Fresh build is now up.

@tamorgen said in Need Testers:

I'm running this in my house, not seeing any issues. The engine is the same for 24115 and userauth; they are completely in sync except for the required elements to support user authentication, which has nothing to do with reaction. Still, anything is possible, but I wouldn't be able to discern much without the usual rules still applying: when things aren't going as expected, look at the logs... follow the posting guidelines...

[tamorgen]

@toggledbits,
Thanks for the updated version. I'll test it this evening after work.

I was only able to provide limited diagnostic information this morning before I headed to work. Reverting to 24115 latest version fixed the immediate issue of reactions not functioning, so everything would function normally while I was gone for the day.

If the reactions continue to hang with the revised version, I'll provide more detailed information and logs this evening.

[toggledbits]

@therealdb the fixed build I just put up (to include the missing HTML file) also includes a potential fix for VirtualEntityController to preserve attributes across upgrades. Let's see how it works out.

[gwp1]

@toggledbits I have not done that yet. One step at a time The Not found issue has been resolved with your latest build and Access Control is WAE. The Reactions issue I noted has also not reappeared.

I have noticed that the TOOLS>Restart Reactor button does not work and I see nothing in the logs whatsoever even after "elevator button-ing" it (press press press press press press press).

Make sure you've done a hard refresh on the browser to ensure that it has loaded all the latest files for the UI.

Failing that, hit F12 (usually) in your browser to open a Developer window, and then hit the Restart button and see if anything gets logged on the browser side.

[gwp1]

@toggledbits Completely slipped my mind to approach it from the browers. Derp.

Yep.

Slow day at work. I was able to remote into my home server and installed the updated release. The login functions properly, and I'm not seeing the hanging reactions as I was this morning.

This is really great. Now I can securely access my reactor UI remotely if I have the need. The only thing that would make it better is 2FA, but this is a fantastic update.

When you reload the page, do you get any similar errors, specifically for /api/v1/systime? Is the time display in the page header correct (showing both host and browser times)?

[gwp1]

@toggledbits no errors for /api/v1/systime and the browser time and system time are identical, perhaps a split second apart as they tick by.

[therealdb]

@toggledbits yep, it's working beautifully time to delete some junky code I wrote for the occasion

I'll play with AuthN&AuthZ on May 1st, since it's a public holiday here in Italy and rain is forecast.
