auth error when uploading on second launch

[andrew-x]

Description

When uploading to a self-hosted backend there is an error related to auth - preventing upload.

Reproduction

• The backend is hosted on Railway, deployed with the one-click.
• The web app works as expected, including sign in, emails, sharing etc.

1. Install the app via Brew, launch

2. set self hosted backend cap.website.com

3. login as normal

4. record short video (10s)

5. export to shareable link

6. this works as normal

7. completely exit the app - right click in dock and exit

8. launch again

9. record short video (10s)

10. export to shareable link

11. the error says "Failed to upload recording"; in the console, it says "User is not authenticated or credentials have expired!

"Simply signing out and back in again does not seem to solve this.

The only remedy I have found is to update backend url, (e.g. changing it to .co, then back to .com) and signing in again. This seems to continue to work until the app completely exits again.

Additional Context

• Cap version: 0.3.76
• Operating system, version: Sequoia 15.6.1
• Device (optional): M3 Pro Macbook Pro, 36 GB RAM

Log file is attached though nothing obvious can be seen

Sorry you've run into this!

This was a bug in the way the server_url is assigned on startup. We are merging a fix in #1284 and it will be included in the next release later today!

Once you update if it's not fixed feel free to reopen this issue!
