Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/issues/5546

Verified issue does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

What happened?

After updating app and server to v25.8.0 I get this error:

We had an unknown problem opening "My-Finances-8e2c2f1"

When looking into the console I get this output

Server Log: Error applying sql: BEGIN TRANSACTION;

CREATE TABLE tags(
  id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
  tag TEXT UNIQUE,
  color TEXT,

If you are hosting a server externally its best to use a browser and not the desktop app.

Can you try opening your budget file in an incognito/private window in your browser?
