    @nebulon said in List of apps that support LDAP/Cloudron User Directory?:

    For a start I have update the appstatus page to include a checkmark for apps which have LDAP enabled at https://www.cloudron.io/appstatus.html

    Thanks!

    @humptydumpty I do think it might be nice to have a filter directly in the app library listing within the dashboard. I think I will add this for the next release.

    Agreed, thanks! 🙏

    @girish Cost and complexity is a thing, from domain integration to simply wanting to use your existing server you pay resources for to run an additional app or two.

    The assumption backups are needed is false.

    Yet, if we take the time to revisit an old idea of additional VM like isolation via Nestybox, (which is a single line code change) we may have our cake and eat it too, with backups at no extra work.

    Personally I don't care for any of the benefits of the packaged apps for the unpackaged ones, unless they're no effort as a side-effect of the implementation.

    The only thing I can think of we might need more of is control over nginx rev proxy settings and mappings.

    I would be interested to know if someone does this outside of Cloudron for their existing business/personal use. Seems like a lot of work (and probably just easier to switch out your NS provider if they are flaky). We use route53 for cloudron.io and AFAIK it has never gone down.

    Cool, I'll get around to following everyone next week. I'm @shane@social.futurnumerique.com! (My site at futurnumerique.com is down because I'm moving from its Yunohost home to Cloudron.)

    @necrevistonnezr Great questions! I'm still pondering this myself, but got delayed with some other projects.

    I don't have an HA setup yet, but I'd assume the easiest way to achieve it may be to duplicate the server (i.e. restore Cloudron backup on a new server), then use rsync to keep them in sync on the boxdata directory for example, then use DNS for failover where the MX server address on the other server can be used with a higher weight to be last in the selection and thus only used if the first MX server isn't responding.

    Just my initial two cents anyways, but haven't thought it out thoroughly yet. Will probably give it more thought once the Cloudron multi-server management feature is in-place as it may make things a little bit easier.

    I will probably end up with a different solution

    I teste FileRun in a LAMP app (after reading @scooke reply here) and it does exactly what I need without all the added bloat and unpolished UI of Nextcloud.

    ✔ It sorts pictures by date taken
    ✔ Has a better UI than NextCloud (personal opinion)
    ✔ It is a lot faster in previewing images
    ✔ Works with the Nextcloud desktop and Android client (or any other app that supports webdav)
    ✔ Can organize photos in albums and collections (I am not really interested in this, but it's a nice to have)

    I hope that it will officially come to Cloudron at some point.

    @necrevistonnezr excellent catch! I think I searched “email” when I should have just searched “mail”. 😇 There may be a couple others I missed.

    @3246 Are you backing up /snapshot/ or the parent directory?
    /snapshot/ is sufficient for a daily backup as it holds the current status of all files - versioning etc. is done by restic.
    Also, how did you calculate these dirsizes?

    @ianhyzy said in running many WP installs on one cloudron:

    @d19dotca thanks! mind sharing any of your php tweaks? I'm curious what other people are doing here

    Certainly! The values change periodically for me based on various circumstances, however here's the current values I'm using in the php.ini file for WordPress...

    default_socket_timeout = 300 max_execution_time = 300 max_input_time = 60 max_input_vars = 3000 memory_limit = 256M post_max_size = 128M upload_max_filesize = 128M

    The top are the values needed usually for best performance from certain page builders and important plugins in WordPress, plus I have a few sites that host videos / other large files so I keep the sizes somewhat large too and tweak as needed for each customer website.

    Also, on the wp-config.php file, I also set the following property which allows the WordPress memory limit to match that of the php.ini file, rather than keeping them separate. But in some cases it may be wise to keep them separate too, it's really a case-by-case basis, I just find I often keep them the same so doing it this way means I only have to set it in one spot and removes the risk of keeping them separate unintentionally...

    define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', ini_get( 'memory_limit' ) ); // sets memory limit to match php.ini

    Then for the actual application itself, I currently set a 1 GB memory limit on each one.

    @ApplegateR Have you tried https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/security-issues ? I think you request a review inside it.

    I am not 100% sure why some sites end up in the unsafe list. Did your domain expire for a short time and maybe some parking page was there for a while? Also, I see that your domain comes up in first page of Google Search (https://www.reddit.com/r/jailbreak/comments/eodhqp/release_sileo_remover_and_my_repo_is_up/) and the links there are broken now. Maybe google penalizes all this, I am not sure.

    @nebulon said in Increase the RAM of the demo machine:

    @LoudLemur and @robi just to add here the option to run hdparm -Tt /dev/<youdisk>, which will measure a few things for disk I/O.

    That requires root and for hdparm to actually be available and installed.

    Hence I use:
    dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/test1.img bs=1G count=1 oflag=dsync ; rm /tmp/test1.img

    @girish said in How does Cloudron work? What does it do? etc 🙂:

    @robi Would be interesting to know what systemd-detect-virt prints for nestybox

    That's easy to test, just change one line in the docker config or specify it on the CLI and bring up a container using sysbox, then run the tool.

    @LoudLemur it is so easy to do it yourself 🙂
    Install gource and use the script from here https://gist.github.com/Gnzlt/a2bd6551f0044a673e455b269646d487
    Find a repo and start the bash script.
