Description
Hello, I have been hosting a vikunja server for some time on an Ubuntu VPS and I recently migrated it to an OpenBSD VPS.
I do not host the frontend, instead, I and my partner download the Windows frontend and use that to interact with Vikunja.
From my partner who originally noticed the issue (I can repeat the problem on my computer):
I had them test things on both the old and new setup, and their frontend worked fine with the Ubuntu server but not the OpenBSD. I had them reinstall the frontend app to get the newest version as well with no change. They decided to delete most of their projects in the hope that recreating them would fix things, but this has no effect (I backed up the db before).
I checked the logs and the server error is very similar, it is complaining about the missing project view ID:
Vikunja Version
Version: v0.23.0+466-d082c0399d
Browser and version
Desktop v23
Can you reproduce the bug on the Vikunja demo site?
No

I am going to rebuild with v0.22.1 and see if that helps, will report back here.
Installed v0.22.1 tagged release on server and downloaded corresponding Desktop app and all seems fine now.
It looks like you're using an unstable build of Vikunja with the last stable desktop release. That will never work. If you're using an unstable build of Vikunja, you need to use the unstable desktop build as well.
The error message corresponds to a new feature which was recently introduced but has not landed yet in a release (hence, it is only available in unstable builds).
oh no...that wasn't my intent and I feel kind of silly!
Sorry about the long issue write up, I will close it.
A reminder to checkout a tagged release might be helpful, neither https://vikunja.io/docs/installing/#freebsd--freenas nor https://vikunja.io/docs/build-from-sources/ mention this
Thanks for the pointer! I've updated the docs accordingly (might take a while to show up on the website)
