A password change ends every session, but a sign-in or sign-in link checked
against the old password just before the change could still save its session
just after, and that session outlived the change.
The session now checks, as it's saved, that the user's password is still the
one the request loaded. The save's transaction holds SQLite's write lock from
the start, so a change commits either before the check, which fails it, or
after the insert, and ends this session with the others. Sessions start
through the user's association so the check sees the user that was
authenticated, and a refused sign-in is answered like a wrong password.

Campfire
Campfire is a web-based chat application. It supports many of the features you'd expect, including:
- Multiple rooms, with access controls
- Direct messages
- File attachments with previews
- Search
- Notifications (via Web Push)
- @mentions
- API, with support for bot integrations
Running your own Campfire instance
Campfire's Docker image contains everything needed for a fully-functional,
single-machine deployment. This includes the web app, background jobs, caching,
file serving, and SSL. You can use our pre-built image at
ghcr.io/basecamp/once-campfire:latest, or build your own from this repo.
Deploying with ONCE
The easiest way to self-host Campfire is with ONCE. It will guide you through the initial set up and then keep your instance up to date automatically.
If you don't already have once installed, run this on the machine you want to run Campfire on:
curl https://get.once.com | sh
once will launch as soon as the install is finished.
Choose Campfire from the list of applications, follow the instructions, and ONCE will take care of the rest.
If you prefer the command line to the dashboard, you can deploy directly:
once deploy ghcr.io/basecamp/once-campfire --host chat.example.com
Deploying with Docker
If you'd rather run the Docker image yourself, you can read more about that in the self-hosting guide.
Tip
When you start Campfire for the first time, you'll be guided through a wizard to create an admin account. The email address that you enter for the admin account will be visible on the sign-in page, it's there so that people have someone to contact if they need help with their account. If that bothers you, put in any email address you want and create yourself a new admin account.
