When starting docker-compose I check the logs to see if Netbird is running correctly and get this runtime error.

docker-compose logs -f
Attaching to netbird-management
netbird-management | panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
netbird-management | [signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x78 pc=0x12d42f9]

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
docker-compose up -d
docker-compose logs -f

Also, when running netstat there is nothing listening on port 443.

I'm running Netbird using a Ubuntu server in the cloud.

NetBird version 0.24.3 and Docker-compose 1.29.2.

This is my correct management.json file that I have changed over and over.

{
"server": {
"proto": "https",
"port": 443,
"grpc_port": 33073,
"domain": "netbird.domain.com",
"log_level": "debug"
},
"store": {
"type": "sqlite",
"sqlite": {
"db_path": "/var/lib/netbird/netbird.db"
},
"encryption_key": "change-me-to-a-unique-strong-key",
"data_dir": "/var/lib/netbird"
},
"auth": {
"type": "none"
}
}

I will be glad to provide any additional information needed.

Hi @coreyh503,

can you try running a more recent version? v0.24.3 is over a year old.

Thank you. I'll try that. I though I was using the most recent version. I would keep retrieving it using the "latest" value but I guess it didn't work. I'm somewhat new to all this. I'll see if that produces a better result.

@coreyh503 you might need to follow some steps before upgrading since you might still be using a file store.

After backup, see docs:https://docs.netbird.io/selfhosted/selfhosted-guide#backup

You first need to update to the 0.28.0 version and then you can upgrade to the latest version.

What is the latest version of the management service so I know what to look for?

I installed the latest version and still the same error. This has been a nightmare. I've been screwing around with this stuff for 3 weeks. I'm going to look for another VPN product.

Can you share the whole log with the panic?

All right. Good luck

@compumatter can you confirm that your management.json has the HttpConfig block?

@nbyloff commented on GitHub (Jul 17, 2025):

I solved the issue by adding the HttpConfig block in my management.json file. All demos on setting up netbird are based on configs that don't include that block. Here is mine:

"HttpConfig": {
        "LetsEncryptDomain": "",
        "CertFile": "/letsencrypt/fullchain.pem",
        "CertKey": "/letsencrypt/privkey.pem",
        "AuthAudience": "",
        "AuthIssuer": "https://auth.domain.test/application/o/netbird/",
        "AuthUserIDClaim": "",
        "AuthKeysLocation": "https://auth.domain.test/application/o/netbird/jwks/",
        "OIDCConfigEndpoint": "https://auth.domain.test/application/o/netbird/.well-known/openid-configuration",
        "IdpSignKeyRefreshEnabled": false,
        "ExtraAuthAudience": ""
    },
