Description
Description:
Since upgrading to 4.3.0 (from 4.1.2 if that matters) apps from the marketplace get disabled now and then. I experienced this with "poll" "giphy" and "out-of-office". Sometimes just enabling the app again is sufficiant. Sometime I need to reinstall the app.
Steps to reproduce:
- Upgrade to 4.3.0
- Go to administration -> apps
- Apps are disabled
- Enable App
- App works
- App suddenly does not work anymore again
- repeat from step 2
Expected behavior:
apps stay enabled
Actual behavior:
apps are disabled for no good reason.

- Operating System: Linux

Begin at Administration → Apps using the listed 4.3.0 Docker setup, then reproduce the repeated disablement across the four running instances. Compare behavior before and after re-enabling or reinstalling the marketplace apps; done means enabled apps remain enabled and continue working.
