ArchForge External Status 1.0.9 — Persistent Branding Fix

Purpose: Stop Git SSH and Git Smart HTTP from reappearing on status.archforge.nl after a service restart or Git deployment.

Changes

  • Persist canonical service labels ArchForge SSH and ArchForge HTTPS for existing internal IDs git_ssh and git_http.
  • Add guarded SQLite triggers that undo attempts by older program versions to overwrite these two labels or their category. Existing service IDs, uptime history, incidents, administrators, and monitor settings are untouched.
  • Render canonical names on the public status page, service detail pages, admin panel, and public status API, even if a stale in-memory record is encountered.
  • Add fix-status-branding.sh for a Git-based Debian 13 repair. It checks the checkout version before changing the installed app, deploys with existing backup/rollback behavior, then verifies the running /healthz version and persisted database names.
  • Add automated tests for stale database writers, restarts/reopening SQLite, history retention, and public HTML presentation.

No changes to ArchForge 11.3.9.1 or ArchForge Desktop are required.

Install (existing VPS 2, from Git)

Update/commit the full 1.0.9 project or apply the 1.0.8→1.0.9 update to your source repository. Push to ArchForge, then from your Debian 13 VPS:

cd ~/archforge-external-status
git pull --ff-only
bash ./fix-status-branding.sh

Run the repair script as root, as in your previous PuTTY session. If you log in as a normal user instead, use sudo bash ./fix-status-branding.sh for the last line. The installer is not rerun; do not delete your existing SQLite DB or status.env.

The repair script is a standalone bash process. A failure returns to your shell and prints [ERROR], rather than containing a pasted exit in your PuTTY session.

Troubleshooting

If the script reports that /healthz is still on an older version, a different service, install path, or process may be running. Do not manually change the DB again; send the exact [ERROR] line instead. If the script confirms version 1.0.9 and names, hard-refresh the public status page (Ctrl+F5).
