I was wrong to think that, I tested bitwarden Android client in airplane mode and it worked, but I didn’t realize that had a “signed-in” state separate from unlocking the vault with the password.
Comment on Vaultwarden while allowing family emergency access
placebo@lemmy.zip 1 week agoI was recently debugging one issue on my server and vaultwarden became inaccessible for a couple of hours. During that time, I was logged out and could not log back in using bitwarden’s firefox extension. It was reporting an “unexpected error” because it couldn’t reach the server. So is this really true?
Everyone would still have access to what was last synced.
Is there a workaround that would allow me to unlock the database even if the server is down?

I don’t think you always need the server, only one of my clients was logged out for unknown reason. Two other clients that I have worked just fine. But it seems that if you’ve been logged out, unlocking the database might be not so trivial. I still need to research this though.

bitwarden logs me out and some of my friends once or twice every year. It’s not reliable for that. I’m pretty sure there’s an undocumented logout trigger in the code somewhere
