I could not replicate on RC 6.13.0. But F5 / refresh was required to load the changes immediately after.

@noobbbbb i can work on it

@noobbbbb , can I work on it?

[noobbbbb]

I apologize if I am wrong.
Why are you asking me?
Work on anything you like.
All I want is for the problem to be solved.

I tried creating a local (Windows11+WSL(Ubuntu)) environment with v6.13.0, but could not reproduce the problem.
The difference from the production environment is that the file upload destination is a file system and we are using LDAP integration.
Does this have anything to do with the default avatar not being reflected?

we are using LDAP integration.

but could not reproduce the problem.

You'd need to test with LDAP authent then, and be able to repeat it.

You should also mention facts like LDAP in your bug report.

Where are the avatars stored?

I followed your advice and listed it under “Additional context”.

We are using LDAP integration.
The storage type for file uploads is 'FileSystem'.

Where are the avatars stored?

The avatar image files are stored in the path set to “FileSystem”.
However, if you run “ResetAvatar”, no avatar image file is created or saved.
We have confirmed that if an svg format image is set as the avatar, it is internally saved as a png file.
Could this be related to the fact that I cannot set an svg format image for default avatar?
