42.62.0

Show maintenance

November 6, 2026

Action required

Deploy the new Create Sample image before or with the web image. An older image can't read bzip2 uploads.

Features

Support bzip2 compressed FASTQ uploads4193

Upload .fastq.bz2 and .fq.bz2 files to create samples. Virtool converts the files to gzip during sample creation. Sample jobs now show a Normalize reads step.

Fixes

Fix sign-in interruptions4192

A malformed browser cookie no longer causes a server error when the user is signed out.
When an administrator requires MFA during a session, Virtool now sends the user to MFA enrollment. Email remediation works the same way.
Confirming your identity no longer signs you out when another request is in progress.
