php artisan bookstack:update-url breaks paths due to omitting a "/"

[msrv]

Describe the Bug

Hi all,
i've maybe discovered a bug. I just migrated my self hosted installation at home (http://IP-Adress, no URL) to a VPS (https://url.example.com).

Everything gets restored, but the image paths are broken because the php artisan command restores the paths from:

http://192.168.2.224/uploads/images/gallery/2025-10/**RAMDOM-STRING**-example.png
to:
https://bookstack.example.comuploads/images/gallery/2025-10/**RAMDOM-STRING**-example.png

Note the missing "/" between the url and uploads.

Things i tried:

restored again, updated url again - no effect.

How can i fix this? Maybe someone has an idea?

Thank you very much :)

Edit:

If i enter the "/", e.g. https://bookstack.example.com**/**uploads/images/gallery/2025-10/**RAMDOM-STRING**-example.png, the image loads correctly.

Edit2:
Fixed it by updating the tables in bookstack database.

Steps to Reproduce

1. create Bookstack install with ip adress as base url instead of a fqdn
2. migrate to a new server with fqdn
3. restore data
4. paths are broken

Expected Behaviour

paths migrated correctly

Hi @msrv,
I'd only expect that to occur if the two values provided to the update-url command used two different format of slashes (one with and one without slashes). Do you know if that was the case in your scenario?

Hi @ssddanbrown thank you for your reply, sadly i dont remember if the previous URL was entered as 192.168.2.224 or 192.168.2.224/ - i just wasn't paying attention to this part - but its definitely possible. I fixed the problem by updating the urls in the database and so far bookstack runs fine as always. Maybe in a future update of the documentation, it could be mentioned that the url format must match exactly, incluging the shlashes.
