Webserver Settings are not saved

[SandraCHC]

What version of Music Assistant has the issue?

2.7.1

How is the MA server installed?

Home Assistant OS Addon

Carefully read the Troubleshooting FAQ and confirm that

• I have examined the logs and tried to resolve this issue
• I have fixed any errors in the logs that relate to tags
• I am not running MA across a VPN, VLAN, subnet, behind a firewall, or using local SSL or have any other complex network setup
• I have disabled tool such as AdGuard, Pi-hole or pfSense and retested
• I have checked my network setup to ensure mDNS/multicast is not being blocked
• If using HA, I have confirmed the internal URL is set correctly
• I have tried a wired connection for issues related to interrupted or poor playback quality
• If the problem relates to a device then I have checked the device settings
• If it is a frontend issue, I have tried a different widely used browser
• I have reviewed the applicable player or music provider documentation
• For voice problems, I have sought help elsewhere before returning here
• For playback problems, I have recycled power to the physical device
• I have tried restarting MA and rebooting the host

Have you reviewed the Open and Closed Issues and Discussions to resolve this yourself?

• Yes

The problem

Thank you for the pull request music-assistant/server#2836

I can now use SSL with my Home Assistant instance.

However, when I configure the web server settings, SSL works correctly at first, but the values are not saved in the GUI. After a system reboot, the SSL settings are lost.

How to reproduce

• Try to open https://yourdomain.tld:8095 → No connection
• Go to Settings → Webserver and change:
• Base URL to https://yourdomain.tld:8095
• SSL certificate path to /ssl/fullchain.pem
• SSL key path to /ssl/privkey.pem
• The connection now works (Validate Button also checked)
• However, the settings are not saved in the GUI, and after a reboot SSL no longer works

I'm also experiencing this issue, and still seeing it on 2.7.2.

Here are my logs for updating the baseUrl, the page reloading and still showing the default baseUrl, and then restarting the container.

You'll note the webserver initally restarts using music.example.com, however on a subsequent restart it reverts to the default baseUrl. The baseUrl box in the UI never reflects the updated value.
