vikunja is a great project, thank you to the developers for their effortsļ¼

I hope to get help! :grinning:

Which frontend version are you using?

Hey, Iā€™m running into the same error.

I installed Vikunja just today, my backend is on v0.21 (precompiled windows x64) and my frontend is on ā€œdevā€ (self-build frontend, because iā€™m serving from a subdirectory).

When Iā€™m trying to create a task in a project, I get a 404 error:
task_not_ok

However, I can create new projects or new labels just fine. Also, the problem does not appear when using the windows desktop application (v0.21). I just happens when using the web frontend.

My /vikunja/api/v1/info returns:
{"version":"v0.21.0","frontend_url":"","motd":"","link_sharing_enabled":true,"max_file_size":"20MB","registration_enabled":true,"available_migrators":["vikunja-file","ticktick"],"task_attachments_enabled":true,"enabled_background_providers":["upload"],"totp_enabled":true,"legal":{"imprint_url":"","privacy_policy_url":""},"caldav_enabled":true,"auth":{"local":{"enabled":true},"openid_connect":{"enabled":false,"redirect_url":"\u003cfrontend url\u003e","providers":null}},"email_reminders_enabled":true,"user_deletion_enabled":true,"task_comments_enabled":true}

The current unstable build is not compatible with a release. You should always use either the same release version or the last unstable builds for both.

To fix your setup you have two possibilities:

  1. Build the frontend from the 0.21.0 release tag
  2. Switch to an unstable api build

Thank you so much for the quick reply. The problem indeed occured due to a version mismatch. I have to admit that I just mindlessly git cloneā€™d the dev repository. Now that I rebuilt the frontend from a v0.21 release version, everything works flawlessly. At least my problem should be solved now.

Thank you for taking the time!
