@Tim-Erwin is this via the local-file datasource type? Do you have the desktop app running with the browser access enabled?
It is the local file datasource type, yes. I didn't know, that desktop app has to be running all the time. So I started it, unlocked the vault in Firefox, was able to add credentials. Wonderful. So in principle it works, I better error message might be useful.
The new entry did not show up in the desktop app, however, so I restarted it, and then I could see the entry. However, when I then added another set of credentials in Firefox, I got
In the vault view in Firefox, the entry was listed anyway, in the desktop app, it wasn't. After closing and opening the vault in Firefox, the entry was gone there as well.
So, overall, I'd say, the process is quite fragile. Probably, there's a reason for that, but as a user it's a bit cumbersome to make sure to have done things in the right order, especially if you don't know / understand it.
Thanks for the hint, anyway.
Yes, the desktop app is undergoing an upgrade - once @sallar finishes that it'll automatically handle updating in the background. The process isn't quick due to the nature of some other datasources (webdav etc), so we poll for changes and don't live-update the vaults. That's coming soon.
However, when I then added another set of credentials in Firefox, I got
Are you still seeing this r is null
error repeatedly? That definitely sounds like a bug.
I cannot reproduce this error right now. Maybe that's because I have internalized the correct order and cannot imagine any other way any more :) So, all that remains is a better error message.
Closing for now. Let's re-open if you see it again.
My vault is a local file. When I try to add a new entry from the browser extension, I get this error:
If you tell me how, I'm willing to help with any further debugging.
