bug: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'key' when no HackerOne API Key is present (v2.2.0) causing 500 Server Error #1505
Description
Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched the existing issues
Current Behavior
When running reNgine v2.2.0 (Docker setup), the dashboard throws a 500 error after login if no HackerOneAPIKey object exists in the database.
The error occurs in dashboard/views.py at line 420:
context['hackerone_key'] = HackerOneAPIKey.objects.first().key
If no record exists, .first() returns None, leading to:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'key'
Expected Behavior
Application should be properly redirected to dashboard after Login to the web UI.
Steps To Reproduce
- Set up reNgine using Docker (v2.2.0) and complete installation.
- Login to the web UI.
- Observe the 500 error after login.
Environment
- reNgine: 2.2.0
- OS: Docker container -MSYS_NT-10.0-22631 3.5.7-463ebcdc.x86_64
- Python: Python 3.10.12

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'key'
Workaround:
I manually created a dummy key via Django shell:
docker compose exec web python3 manage.py shell
Then ran:
>>>from dashboard.models import HackerOneAPIKey
>>>HackerOneAPIKey.objects.create(key='dummy_key')
>>>exit()
After that, the error was resolved.
