It is included in the current CI builds, but it has not been released yet; it will be part of 1.12. Just curious what you need it for. 😄

I think we're potentially running in to it when upgrading (manually copying to applications folder) on Mac os from version 1.7 to 1.11.1
f
The
settings.json
file has always been going through schema migrations, so that should not be the cause of any upgrade problems. This issue is about the REST API for changing settings. That used to require an exact match, but will now allow requests with older schema versions as well.
This primarily benefits our test suite, so we don't have to update the requests to the latest schema and version for each release.
Which is why I was curious how it affects you, as it means you must be using the REST API for something...

Oh I gotcha, I apologize. I should have read those issues a little more than I did. I saw the link to it on this issue: https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/issues/5618

That is a different issue (that should also be fixed in 1.12) and only affects upgrades from very old versions (like 1.3 or earlier).
You should be able to fix it by starting Rancher Desktop once with
Copy code
rdctl start --application.path-management-strategy rcfiles

I think you helped me realize what is happening, thanks so much! We were placing a settings file for a really old version on install and I believe that is what is causing the issue. We're working on getting everyone upgraded to 1.11 so it shouldn't be a issue much longer. Just curious, is there a planned release date yet for 1.12?
f
The planned date was a week ago. 😄 But we are still struggling to identify an issue that is hard to reproduce, but happens too frequently to ignore. So hopefully early January.

Gotcha alright. I'll keep an eye out. Again, thanks for all your help! I hope you have a great holiday season!

You too!
