Password issues with public shares in sciebo

Partial Outage
Mon 03/23/2026 09:15 AM - Unknown

Setting passwords for public shares is currently not working reliably (some passwords are not being accepted), whilst shared folders are not affected.
The relevant department has been informed and is working on a solution.

Update from the operator:
"Since setting passwords for public shares (public links) was malfunctioning and the software unfortunately didn’t display an error message, we implemented a workaround requiring that all shares always have a password. This currently prevents creating shares without a password.
We are in contact with the manufacturer and are awaiting a patch. This will likely be delayed until Thursday due to another serious error, so we will not be able to implement the corrections before Easter."

The update provided by the software manufacturer did not resolve the issue. Work on a solution is still ongoing.
