Error: credentialsService.createCredential - Malformed UTF-8 data

[saikumar-digi]

Sometimes when we click on edit createCredential that time I get 500 internal server error with Error: credentialsService.createCredential - Malformed UTF-8 data i connected Mysql Data base locally its working I'm using GCP DB there I'm getting this error

[arthaadiadayamadani]

Same i getting the error by using postgresql as the DB. Error : Status: 500 Error: credentialsService.createCredential - Malformed UTF-8 data

[H1bertto]

Same here, I am also using GCP with PostgreSQL, in the credentials I get this error: Status: 500 Error: credentialsService.createCredential - Malformed UTF-8 data And if this error occurs in the credential, in Chatflow I get this error: Error: Error: Credentials could not be decrypted.

[arakakihenrique]

same here, but for openai.

[sjoel99]

I also have the same problem

[yuralves]

Same issue here using version 2.0.1 Can't find a root cause. I created two identical credentials on the same day and i'm getting error with one (after a few hours of creation) and success with the other

[frankyw]

Same problem here, creating an OpenAI credential with Supabase backend.

[sandroelmo]

same problem, PostgreSQL on cloud run. Any solution?

[josh-at-straker]

bump - this is major - also breaking all our worfklows seemingly randomly.

As an update - I do have FLOWISE_SECRETKEY_OVERWRITE set on my container deployment. I also ran a local test doing the same, and had the same result.

The issue occurs when the container in question, which has ephemeral storage, is restarted, even with FLOWISE_SECRETKEY_OVERWRITE set.

It seems this env might not being respected correctly?

Same here this is the error log Flowise version 2.2.4

I found that I had to set SECRETKEY_PATH as well as FLOWISE_SECRETKEY_OVERWRITE to fix this, when deployed as a container. I set it as SECRETKEY_PATH=/root/.flowise as per the README here https://github.com/FlowiseAI/Flowise/tree/main/docker

OMG a week of my work to the trash!

But this is for local databases, not online mysql or postgres databases, right? Do those parameters have to be set as variables, or added in the docker file? Thanks!

Error: Malformed UTF-8 data Q: what the fix for this

[juancarlossch]

Error: Datos UTF-8 mal formados P: cuál es la solución para esto

Tengo el mismo error

[bitsnaps]

Right now, the only option is to delete/re-create credentials every time. I think this can be solved in the implementation provide an option to store var env in the DB instead, well this should be encrypted though.
