Additional Context
The same login flow with Bitwarden (bitwarden.com) works as expected. I assume it's a bug with the client, but reporting here first since it's still using a Vaultwarden server
@mstarongithub commented on GitHub (Jun 12, 2026):
Some more messing around in the client got me to a state where it thought I was logged in on my vaultwarden account, but failed to load the vault contents
@niccrane commented on GitHub (Jun 13, 2026):
I'm am experiencing this with the normal packaged version of the client. I have tried extra/bitwarden 2026.2.1-1 and aur/bitwarden-bin 2026.5.0-1 but both experience the same issue. I'm on Arch Linux.
The login appears to succeed, I get an email saying a new login has occurred and the server logs suggest success but the client just sits there spinning.
I have also deleted all local config and re-setup a fresh with no success.
MacOS, Android and web console clients appear unaffected.
@BlackDex commented on GitHub (Jun 13, 2026):
I'm not seeing any errors in the Vaultwarden logs.
Also, locally i can not reproduce this using the Desktop AppImage version for example.
But also nothing strange using The Arch Linux version.
I would suggest to start the client via the command line so you can see the logs it generates, that might provide some more details.
