    @AartJansen that seems quite a common approach 🙂 for some reason I can't get on with SOGo myself and prefer SnappyMail 🙂

    I also make use of Nextcloud Talk for video meetings and find that works pretty well (and it's nice having integration with the rest of Nextcloud, so you can e.g. open and work on a doc together, etc).

  • Nextcloud and local filesystem as Volumes

    @girish This worked. What I didn't understand was that /media/name_of_volume was a hard and fast location. The documentation had this line, As a security measure, only host paths under /mnt, /media, /srv and /opt are allowed. which I took to mean that if I used any of those four + the volume name, that that was the location for the Configuration option in Nextcloud. So presumably I could still make any Volume using any of those four, but in Nextcloud the Configuration will always be /media/name_of_volume? Even though it is "now" clearly obvious in the Cloudron Nextcloud dashboard, that Apps can access mounted volumes via /media/{volume name} directory. This data is not included in the app's backup. I thought that the "/media" directory was there as an example, and that any of those four might be used, depending on how the Volume was added. But no, right there, clear as day, it says to use /media.

    For someone like myself that just isn't clear and obvious. In this screenshot of adding a Volume, would it be helpful to add a line like, "These filesystem Volumes will then be accessible only at /media/name_of_volume." ? Or are there too many variables; other apps would need this specificity?
    ae05db42-19c1-4b06-ad4f-621d185c230b-image.png

    Or perhaps in the image shared above: Use the directory /media/{volume name}, regardless of its host path, as the path for Apps that will access mounted volumes. This data is not included in the app's backup.

    I don't know.... now that I understand /media is how Cloudron manages Volumes, at least filesystem Volumes, it kind of makes sense. Thank you everyone for pitching in. The Volume did load and I can see the contents. Phew.

    My use-case is different from yours as I'm looking for control/privacy, so my homeserver has two free apps, Nextcloud & Vaultwarden. My VW has low resource usage despite the higher than default iterations setting which makes it perfect fit w/ my NC app.

    @LoudLemur said in How to record teleconference in Nextcloud Talk?:

    However, I imagine you have the same version, and that is why you are asking, in which case, I don't know.

    Correct, ok thanks.

    @girish said in Migrating Nextcloud to a different Cloudron has resulted in all the Nextcloud user's usernames having _xxxx appended at the end:

    as long as the new Cloudron and old Cloudron use the same usernames.

    I think this is probably the issue. I think I imported the backup before importing all the users! I've now imported all the users, uninstalled the broken install, and am currently re-importing the backup again...

    Just to add more info here, I can't fully remember the details, but I'm pretty sure that didn't help as in the end I gave up trying to get this to work.

    I'm pretty sure I tried it again the other way around (creating users with the exact same usernames and in the exact same groups etc) and hit exactly the same issue.

    @archos that's a pretty great deal. 1TB storage for 5 euros! https://www.hetzner.com/storage/storage-share/ if anyone wants to take a look.

    And if you don't need Nextcloud and just need some storage their Storage Boxes are even cheaper still

    IIRC, the issue is that Rocket Loader injects some custom javascript and this interferes with the CSP rules.

    @SolarSimon We basically just wait for 2-3 weeks giving apps sometime to make themselves compatible for the next nextcloud release. Beyond that, we don't have any compatibility checks. You have to disable nextcloud app updates (on Cloudron) and then check compat yourself and click update whenever you think all your apps are ready.

    @daebak ah! It's the same for both our nextcloud installations. So, looks normal to me.

    Many thanks for the quick help and the detailed explanation.
    As I said, the problem occurred when emptying the trash. I assume that many workers are being requested here.
    I have increased MaxRequestWorkers from 15 to 100 and slightly increased the RAM allocated to the app.
    As far as I could test now, the problem seems to be solved.

    Glad you managed to find the root cause. Its always a bit of a hit and miss with the quality of Nextcloud apps/plugins, which is why we have to wait for quite some time on major Nextcloud updates to allow plugin authors to catch up 😕

    @mononym right use the LAMP app to install and integrate the parts you need. There's also n8n if needed.

    After trying Onlyoffice Docs for the the last 15 days, i can say onlyoffice is better than Collabora, it runs and loads faster than collabora with the same machine specification and number of users, now i turn back on the nextcloud office with onlyoffice ,i can say this solution is more reliable than collabora office which is slow and failing most of the time
