UNITRONIX/BetterDesk v3.3.2
BetterDesk 3.3.2

on GitHub

15 hours ago

Patch release on main. Ships via Settings → Updates (Stable), betterdesk.sh option 2 (Update / Repair permissions), or panel update on the stable channel.

Fixed

Bare-metal console startup (#206) — betterdesk-console failed with SQLITE_READONLY_DIRECTORY on db_v2.sqlite3 because the unprivileged betterdesk user could not write to the Go server data directory. Installer and linux-ensure-console-user.js now apply setgid group-write on $RUSTDESK_PATH, re-sync permissions after the Go server starts, and verify both console data/ and Go data dirs before marking permissions OK.

Upgrade notes

Topic	Action
Broken console on bare metal	Update to 3.3.2+ via Settings → Updates (Stable) or `betterdesk.sh` → Update. Or once as root: `chown root:betterdesk /opt/betterdesk && chmod 2775 /opt/betterdesk`, then `systemctl restart betterdesk-console`.
Verify	`systemctl is-active betterdesk-console`; panel loads on port 5000 or 5443; `journalctl -u betterdesk-console -n 20` shows no `SQLITE_READONLY_DIRECTORY`.
