    @subven ah, thanks for the pointer. I had no clue about that feature. But yeah it seems it is nextcloud internal or just how that specific user is setup, rather than a Cloudron or packaging bug.

    @jdaviescoates Yes, the latest app update has resolved the issue!

    Thank you for your help with this, though.

    By default, Nextcloud generates photo thumbnails on-demand that leads to slow Photos thumbnails load. To speed it up we’re using the Preview Generator app for Nextcloud to pre-generate previews regularly.

    First we set the default thumbnail sizes by using the "occ config" commands:

    sudo -u www-data /usr/bin/php /app/code/occ config:app:set --value="32 256" previewgenerator squareSizes sudo -u www-data /usr/bin/php /app/code/occ config:app:set --value="256 384" previewgenerator widthSizes sudo -u www-data /usr/bin/php /app/code/occ config:app:set --value="256" previewgenerator heightSizes

    Then we generated previews for all existent images:

    sudo -u www-data /usr/bin/php /app/code/occ preview:generate-all -vvv

    It took about 3 weeks on our host to generate preview images for 4Tb of data which takes additional 500Gb.

    Once it's finished we setup a cron job to generate previews:

    0 */6 * * * sudo -u www-data /usr/bin/php -f /app/code/occ preview:pre-generate

    TBH, it helped us a little but our Photos are still loading for 50-60 seconds and we are seeking any solution to speed it up.

    @zion you can do both at the same time. If you create a account within Nextcloud, Cloudrons LDAP is not involved. The other way around you can deny access for Cloudron accounts via the apps security tab within Cloudron. Switching off LDAP is not recommended but you are free to do whatever you like ^^

    Jitsi is now doing the same thing

    As @nebulon said before: A little information would help, like

    Hoster Domain / DNS provider Ubuntu Version

    etc etc

    @nebulon Yes, it seems like it is: https://help.nextcloud.com/t/how-to-remove-device-session-on-security-personal-menu/107430

    Waiting for an official fix, two workarounds mentioned in these topics are editing database or running a bash script. Nothing that I'm able to do, but yeah, this does need to be solved upstream.

    @humptydumpty said in Auto Backups - Data Retention and Syntax Questions:

    auto, 7

    I think this is the one. This would translate to delete all files in the trash bin that are older than 7 days automatically, delete other files anytime if space needed.

    @vladimir-d there seems to be no easy way to migrate nextcloud to different data directory (atleast in an automated way), see https://help.nextcloud.com/t/howto-change-move-data-directory-after-installation/17170 . Looks like the put the absolute path in the "share" database fields.

    Also, the reason for nextcloud update is that it has some slightly tricky optimization to change ownership of files carefully. It also changes the default data directory of newer nextcloud installations.

    @chminc Indeed, I looked into this quite recently myself for our setup and came to very similar conclusions. It's not advised to use object storage. We will move to volume storage in case the space on the server won't be enough - it is not that much more expensive. But I have made really good experience with the Cloudron backup function, it restored everything completely error-free. And you can store the backup on object storage. Using encryption is not a problem at all.

    just an update, the syntax for the psql variables has changed, so the conversion script looks like this:

    sudo -u www-data php occ db:convert-type \ --password ${CLOUDRON_POSTGRESQL_PASSWORD} \ --clear-schema --all-apps pgsql \ ${CLOUDRON_POSTGRESQL_USERNAME} \ ${CLOUDRON_POSTGRESQL_HOST} \ ${CLOUDRON_POSTGRESQL_DATABASE}

    you must run this from within the nextcloud container.

    also, I had some dificulties with the mysql migration, the temp mariadb/mysql docker container should match the same type and version as the source. In my case src had mariadb 10.5, so the container from the code sample above (mariadb 10.1) throw some strange errors while importing the sql dump.

    @andreasdueren We used to use RC 3 years ago for another project, but had to switch for many reasons.

    We even had a partnership with the team behind RC, good people, who at the time could not deliver on our needs in time.

    Defintely worth a re-evaluation next go around.
