Thank you for contributing to the Bareos Project!

Before, the Bareos WebUI only displayed the clients update status, while the Director update status still used old, outdated code.
These changes now uses the same code and data to display the update status of the clients and the Director.

When download.bareos.com is not reachable to get the version info, the AuthController crashes and you only get a blank page.

Error log:

[Fri May 23 21:20:48 2024] PHP Warning:  Trying to access array offset on value of type int in /build/bareos/review-pr-1809/bareos/webui/vendor/Bareos/library/Bareos/Util.php on line 38
[Fri May 23 21:20:48 2024] PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in /build/bareos/review-pr-1809/bareos/webui/vendor/Bareos/library/Bareos/Util.php:39
Stack trace:
#0 /build/bareos/review-pr-1809/bareos/webui/module/Auth/src/Auth/Controller/AuthController.php(307): Bareos\Util::getNearestVersionInfo()

In getVersionInfo() from Util.php the variable $bareos_supported_versions contains the following in the error case:
a:3:{s:10:"readyState";i:4;s:6:"status";i:404;s:10:"statusText";s:5:"error";} (output from serialize())
It probably expects a linear array of version info dictionaries.

Not sure why the status code is 404, because for this test the IP address of downloads.bareos.com was set to an unreachable IP address, so no HTTP request could have happened.

I improved the handling of retrieving the updates. After that, the problem did no longer occur in my environment.

Yes, that fixed it in my tests.
