rcourtman/Pulse v4.3.7

v4.3.7 - ProxmoxVE Compatibility & Auth Fixes

on GitHub

What's Changed

This release addresses critical authentication and setup issues affecting ProxmoxVE Community Scripts, Docker deployments, and systemd installations.

Bug Fixes

• ProxmoxVE Compatibility: Automatic service name detection (pulse vs pulse-backend), no more sudo attempts for non-root users
• Docker Authentication: Fixed bcrypt hash mangling caused by shell expansion - hashes now properly quoted
• Hash Validation: Added 60-character validation for bcrypt hashes with clear error messages
• Security Setup: Quick Security Setup now accessible to check if already configured without credentials
• Documentation: Updated troubleshooting guides for common authentication issues

Technical Improvements

• Service name auto-detection for different deployment environments
• Better environment detection (Docker vs systemd vs manual)
• Improved error messages for truncated or invalid bcrypt hashes
• Security setup endpoint now idempotent (safe to run multiple times)

For ProxmoxVE Users

The community script should now work without any manual workarounds. Binary path remains stable at /opt/pulse/bin/pulse.

For Docker Users

Authentication issues with bcrypt hashes have been resolved. Ensure your hash is exactly 60 characters and wrapped in single quotes.
