Hi, This is the right place. I could repeat the issue with Geoserver 2.24.0. Please file an issue. UI is probably the most suitable component. And thank you for reading the instructions.
When it comes to correcting the issue, you can see that many issues do get resolved https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/issues/?filter=-7. You can also see that there are more than a thousand open issues already https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/issues/?jql=status%20%3D%20Open%20order%20by%20created%20DESC. That does not mean that Geoserver is an extraordinary buggy piece of software. Geoserver is a large, old, and widely used project with lots of features, and unlike some other projects, we do not close issues automatically if they have not been resolved within, for example, two months. But even if the issue would not get fixed immediately now there is something that the search engines can find if meanwhile some other user has a similar problem than you. Thank you for that. -Jukka Rahkonen- Lähettäjä: Thomas Larsen Wessel <mrve...@gmail.com> Lähetetty: torstai 19. lokakuuta 2023 14.49 Vastaanottaja: geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net Aihe: Re: [Geoserver-users] Misleading error message "Unauthorized master password dump request" Could someone please tell me if I posted this in the right place? I did read this guide on the Issue Tracker: https://geoserver.org/issues/. I'm not sure if it qualifies as a bug, and the guide says if in doubt, post to the mailing list. So I did. Will anyone take notice of my post here, and correct the misleading message (or at least provide feedback that it wont be corrected for whatever reason)? :) Or should I in fact post this to the issue tracker? Or a different mailing list?

In the end I found the error message below in the log. 18 Oct 08:44:49 WARN [geoserver.security] - Master password dump attempted to overwrite existing resource So the actual reason was that there was already a file at /opt/foo.txt. I suggest the web administration interface is modified to show the same error/warning message as in the log, or some other equally helpful message :) Sincerely
