There are configuration items that users of syncthing can accidentally set, resulting in the UI becoming unavailable. Previously, if such a thing happened, the FreedomBox admin would have to ssh into the server and edit the xml manually or reinstall/restore the app. With this patch, it is enough to re-run the setup to make the UI accesible again. - Remove http basic authentication from the settings (gui/user and gui/password. This is unnecessary as FreedomBox already provides authentication. - Make sure these options are properly set: - 'Use HTTPS for GUI' is off - 'GUI Listen Address' is 127.0.0.1:8384 - GUI is enabled There is a forum discussion that inspired these changes: https://discuss.freedombox.org/t/solved-cant-access-syncthing-administration-panel/2137 Tests done: - Fresh install: after the setup, confirm the UI is working properly and the xml is configured with the expected values. - Make the changes to break the Syncthing UI, then re-run setup. Confirm the UI is back online.
