Failed to save

Error message

Failed to save

What it means

Inline settings message shown when saving image-generation settings fails. saveSettings POSTs {image_gen_enabled, image_model, image_quality} to /api/auth/settings; non-OK throws with the response text (or 'HTTP <status>'), and the catch flattens everything to 'Failed to save'.

Solutions

1. Check devtools for the POST /api/auth/settings status and body
2. Re-login / confirm the account has permission to change auth settings
3. Verify model and quality values are ones the backend accepts
4. Debounce the change-driven autosave and surface e.message instead of a fixed string

Example fix

// before
    } catch (e) { msg.textContent = 'Failed to save'; msg.style.color = 'var(--red)'; }

// after
    } catch (e) {
      console.error('image settings save failed:', e);
      msg.textContent = 'Failed to save: ' + e.message;
      msg.style.color = 'var(--red)';
    }

if (!navigator.onLine) { msg.textContent = 'Offline'; return; }
if (!modelSel.value || !qualSel.value) { msg.textContent = 'Select model and quality'; return; }

try { const res = await fetch(...); if (!res.ok) throw new Error(await res.text().catch(() => `HTTP ${res.status}`)); ... } catch (e) { msg.textContent = 'Failed to save: ' + e.message; }

When it happens

Trigger: POST /api/auth/settings returns 4xx (unauthenticated, admin-only endpoint, invalid model/quality value) or 5xx; network failure; auto-save fires on 'change' events while a previous save is in flight.

Common situations: Non-admin user opening the settings pane; auth cookie expired so the save silently 401s; choosing a model the backend rejects; rapid consecutive changes racing each other.
