SparkBox patches — Sun Nov 1, 2026
Posted by Chris
SparkBox releases shipped on Sun Nov 1, 2026 (UTC), in order, newest at the bottom. This thread is updated as releases land during the day. Update from the SparkBox dashboard, or run sudo sparkbox upgrade on your SparkBox host. Legend boxes get every release the day it ships; free boxes get it after it has run there for a week. If a problem remains after updating, submit a private support ticket or reply below with the app name, what you expected, and what happened instead. Earlier days: Sat Oct 31, 2026 · Fri Oct 30, 2026 · Thu Oct 29, 2026 · Wed Oct 28, 2026 · Tue Oct 27, 2026 · Sun Oct 25, 2026 · Wed Oct 21, 2026 v1.7.19 — File Browser keeps the password you set in it - File Browser no longer resets a password you changed inside the app. Your new password now stays after restarts and updates. Settings → Service Passwords still shows the one SparkBox made, and Reset there still gives you a new working password. - A brand-new File Browser still starts with the password SparkBox made for it. v1.7.20 — The Sonarr/Radarr sign-in switch and OpenVPN upload work on Synology - On boxes where the media apps run as a user other than 1000 (for example Synology), the “Trust my LAN” switch for Sonarr, Radarr and Prowlarr now really turns on and off, and it shows the right setting. - Uploading an OpenVPN profile now works on those boxes too, also before Media has started for the first time, and keeps working after a restart. - File Browser no longer resets a password you changed inside the app, so your own password stays after restarts and updates (this fix was planned for 1.7.19, which never went out). - If sparkbox up is run from an account that is not allowed to use Docker, it now tells you to run sudo sparkbox up instead of pointing at a full disk.
