ElixirOffice server 0.1.1 (beta 1.1) is the self-hosted version of the free and open source (AGPLv3) office suite for people used to Microsoft Office, in your browser. This update fixes renaming and "Save a copy" reported by beta 1 users, and localizes the start-page templates. The desktop apps are a separate release.

Install

It is a Docker image with a deployment bundle. Installation is the same as in the beta 1 release; see docs/install-server.md in the bundle for installation, backup, upgrade and rollback. Linux x86_64 image (use the digest in production):

ghcr.io/leag1234/elixiroffice-server:beta1.1
ghcr.io/leag1234/elixiroffice-server@sha256:bb2dfabd7bdd5174eab4385070cc52ee6f2cfa17aef0572d8c837a3bb2e794e3

Verify SHA256SUMS for the source and deployment files, and do a save/reopen check after upgrading. AI stays off until you configure it.

What changed

  • Rename: File > Rename renames the stored document in "This server" storage and in the start-page Nextcloud/Murena connector, with collision and permission checks. Later saves follow the renamed file.
  • Save a copy: opens a destination-folder picker for the current storage and saves your current edits into an independent copy. Read-only files can be copied into writable destinations when their policy permits.
  • File names: new names reject Windows reserved devices (also with extensions), bidi control characters and names over 255 UTF-8 bytes. Names are normalized to NFC; existing device-named files on Linux stay readable.
  • Templates: the four start-page templates are localized in 39 languages, with matching previews. Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, Sinhala and Urdu use the English version because the bundled fonts do not cover those scripts.
  • Language: the start page and New document select templates by UI language and keep it when opening the editor. Folder-picker, error and save messages use the existing translations with English fallback.

Before upgrading

Save and close open documents, keep your configuration and secrets, and back up your data volumes. Document keys in "This server" storage change once on upgrade: reopen your documents after deploying. Sessions left open across the upgrade lose co-editing continuity. Nextcloud document keys do not change.

Known limitations

  • PDF editor: mouse-wheel scrolling may not work in Chromium-based browsers (use the scrollbar or keyboard). Fix planned for 0.1.2.
  • Templates: Arabic italic notes may show missing characters (fix planned for 0.1.2). Right-to-left tables are not mirrored.
  • Not verified: certificate issuance from a public authority, real external Murena/Nextcloud accounts, ARM servers and fresh native DEB/RPM installation need checks by the operator. Desktop installation, Windows hardware, physical printing and production deployment are outside this server release.
  • Security: the optional start page is for a trusted network or behind your own access layer; local profiles are not authentication or a multi-tenant boundary.
  • Shortcuts and context menus: some known issues remain; actual results and the comparison with beta 1 are in checks.json.

Files

release.json identifies the tested image and the matched runtime pair (528e920e4f34-bd14d110aa08-st / 528e920e4f34-98ab90f5d735-st). Localized template content was checked by source bytes and literal text, not by new visual fidelity tests for every script. The corresponding source keeps build prerequisites and licences, with internal plans omitted and private host/path identifiers neutralised; SOURCE-OMISSIONS.json records these transformations.
