Release Date: January 10, 2026
Version: 0.7.13
Type: Critical Bug Fix
Impact: High - Fixes critical issue preventing sandbox database reset from working correctly
Changelog: N/A

Overview

Paideia LMS v0.7.13 is a critical bug fix release that resolves a critical issue with the sandbox database reset functionality introduced in v0.7.12. This release fixes a bug that prevented the first user from being registered during the sandbox reset process, causing the entire reset operation to fail. Users are strongly urged to upgrade to v0.7.13 immediately if they are using sandbox mode.

Critical Bug Fix

🔧 Sandbox Reset First User Registration

Bug Fix: Fixed sandbox database reset failing to register the first user, causing the entire reset process to fail with "Failed to register first user" error.

What Was Wrong:

  • Sandbox reset was failing during the seed process when attempting to register the first admin user
  • The tryRegisterFirstUser function was missing the req parameter in the user existence check
  • This caused the function to fail when checking if users already exist in the system
  • Sandbox reset would fail with error: "Failed to register first user. There can be bugs with this version. Please turn off sandbox mode and try the normal mode."
  • Database would remain in an inconsistent state after failed reset

What Changed:

  • Added missing req parameter to payload.find call in tryRegisterFirstUser function
  • User existence check now properly uses the transaction context
  • First user registration now works correctly during sandbox reset
  • Sandbox reset process completes successfully and seeds fresh data

Technical Details:

  • Fixed tryRegisterFirstUser to pass req parameter to payload.find when checking for existing users
  • Ensures the user existence check runs within the proper request context
  • First user registration now completes successfully within the transaction

Impact:

  • ✅ Sandbox mode now correctly resets and seeds database on startup
  • ✅ First admin user is properly created during seed process
  • ✅ Sandbox reset completes successfully without errors
  • ✅ Sandbox environment works as intended

Error Message Before Fix:

⚠️  seed.json not found in project root, using predefined test data
🌱 Checking if database needs seeding...
🌱 Database is fresh, starting seed process...

📦 Creating Users

❌ Failed to reset sandbox database: Failed to register first user. There can be bugs with this version. Please turn off sandbox mode and try the normal mode.
