Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/issues/1276

Have you read and understood the above guidelines?

yes

📜 What is the name of the script you are using?

Kimai

📂 What was the exact command used to execute the script?

bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/raw/main/ct/kimai.sh)"

📝 Provide a clear and concise description of the issue.

With Kimai up and running, I'm trying to change the default Values. Every time I change the settings and click save, I get the green confirmation banner saying "saved changes", but immediately the changes get revered and aren't actually saved. I can click the reset button and the settings change to blank values, but again if I click save the settings get reverted to the values they were when the sever was started.

⚙️ What settings are you using?

  • Default Settings
  • Advanced Settings

🖥️ Which Linux distribution are you using?

Debian 12

🔄 Steps to reproduce the issue.

Step 1: Install Kimai
Step 2: login via admin@helper-scripts
Step 3: Go to System-Settings
Step 4: Change default values and click save

Paste the full error output (if available).

N/A

🖼️ Additional context (optional).

I've installed it both with default and advanced settings. Also, I've signed in with admin@helper-scripts.com creds and with creds of a user I created and added admin roles to. Not sure if its something I'm doing wrong on my end or expecting it to work a way that it doesn't. But, i would like to change the default values so I don't have to change them every time I add a new customer, project, user, etc.

I'm able to create the LXC and log into the service, but when I try and change the default values under system - settings they don't keep the values I changed them to even though I get the banner at the top of the page saying " saved changes". The installation of the LXC went smoothly; this is the only issues I'm running into.

I don't think I'm following your question then. Would the fix be something I do through the cli or is it something that was changed in the script? Thanks for your patience.

Build the script again as a new LXC and test it. You are not answering the question of when you created the LXC.

Oh my bad its been a long day. You're asking when I made the LXC? I made it a day ago. I've even removed and recreated it both with default setting and advanced. Also rebooted proxmox before and after recreating the LXC just incase.

I've rebuilt the script again as a new LXC and I'm still unable to save the default values. Same issue occurs.

Sorry for the late reply, but it looks like everything is working correctly now for me at least. Thanks for the help!
