Full changelog

Bug-fix release.

Fixes

  • Windows agent: undeletable NUL file (#300) — the agent no longer creates a reserved-name NUL file in its data directory, which previously couldn't be removed by Explorer or PowerShell and blocked the uninstaller. The uninstaller also now cleans up any leftover reserved-name files from earlier versions.
  • Shell hook: clearer errors when a script won't run (#297) — when a pre/post script exists and is executable but fails to start, the agent now identifies the real cause (Windows CRLF line endings or a missing shebang interpreter) instead of a bare "No such file or directory".
  • Daily report: client size now matches the Clients page (#292) — the Client Status table's "Size" column shows the on-disk (deduplicated) repository size, consistent with the Clients page, and stays correct even when the most recent backup failed.
  • Largest Files / file list empty on ClickHouse 26.5 (#301) — worked around a ClickHouse 26.5 query-planner regression that made the Largest Files panel and catalog file list render empty. Existing data repopulates after updating; no reindex needed. Also reported upstream as ClickHouse/ClickHouse#106294.

Agent updated to 2.60.2 (Windows NUL fix and shell-hook diagnostics).
