SimpleHelp server issue

So I had to change the code to this:

  simplehelp:
    image: alzahar/simplehelpserver:5.5.13
    container_name: simplehelpserver

That pulled down the latest. I don’t know why alzahar/simplehelpserver doesn’t work - it should, right?

At least now I know I can manually modify the YAML with the version number and that should pull that version. And now I can update it all w/o ruining my settings. So this is great!

So I spun up SH again, and you’re right.
It installs basically the oldest version.

If I open https://simple-help.com/releases/SimpleHelp-linux-amd64.tar.gz in my browser it’s new. If I use wget from the NAS or WSL I get 5.2.10.
So SH.com is being annoying. I’ve filed a bug on github so maybe he does something.

Otherwise if your comfortable using the container from alzahar I guess it doesn’t matter.

Fun fact, https://simple-help.com/releases/5.5.13/SimpleHelp-linux-amd64.tar.gz works even with wget. But that would mean someone needs to take over maintenance.

Thank you for filing that. I can let them know as well since paying customers get email support.

They had some significant security issues a couple years ago, so I don’t know if they removed the ability WGET the latest?

I have a solution of some sort - at least for now…
