 ### Fixed
 - Resolved issue with missing Restic password file causing auto backup configuration to fail.
+- Corrected permissions and ownership for the Restic password file to ensure it is accessible by the `litespeed` user.
+- Updated the `installRestic` section in `manifest.jps` to generate a random password for the Restic password file during installation.
+- Ensured consistent usage of the Restic password across all scripts by reading it from the `/etc/restic-password` file.
+- Adjusted the `importScripts` section in `manifest.jps` to set the correct ownership for all backup-related directories to `litespeed:litespeed`.
 
 ### Updated
 - Updated `manifest.jps` to ensure Restic password file creation and log rotation setup.
