Patch shipped: v1.6.722 — An unhealthy database now says why, and Tom AI explains three more releases

These SparkBox updates are now available: v1.6.722 — An unhealthy database now says why, and Tom AI explains three more releases - A database that goes unhealthy now tells you why. Nextcloud's and WordPress's databases check themselves by logging in the way the app does, but the check threw away its own error message, so the app sat there unable to reach its database while everything SparkBox could show you was a bare "unhealthy" with no reason. The reason — usually that the saved password and the database no longer agree — is now recorded where the dashboard, the doctor and support can all read it. Nothing about your password is written down. - Tom AI now explains in plain language what three more earlier releases changed for you, instead of saying the details were not recorded: the one that fixed Windows installs picking up the wrong copy of Docker and leaving apps unable to look up internet addresses, the one that gathered up a batch of fixes so several unrelated annoyances went away together, and the one that made installing SparkBox as an app on a computer read as something for computers. Update from the SparkBox dashboard, or run sudo sparkbox upgrade on your SparkBox host. If a problem remains after updating, submit a private support ticket or reply here. Include your SparkBox version and what you see; leave passwords and licence keys out.
