    @jdaviescoates said in [OT] Hetzner Box night backup takes 6 hours?!: I'm looking forward to when we can do multiple backup locations, which I'm hoping will allow me to do rsync to one destination and tarball to another. Yes, waiting for multiple backup locations.

    @IniBudi can you check the app logs? Keep the app log window open and then stop the app again . There will be a line which says "Stopping redis".

    I am running a Intel J4125 with 16GB RAM and an Intel J5040 with 16GB RAM. Both are par in terms of performance. Power Consumption is very low with <10 Watts

    @jdaviescoates said in Add minimum server requirements to https://www.cloudron.io/get.html: "Start with a clean, freshly installed Ubuntu Noble 24.04 x64 server with no prior software or configurations, then run these commands" This is too wordy, if we can use the (prior) existing text amount as what they are aiming for. Plus, as the Forum sometimes shows us, some people's servers need some extra software and configuration to make them usable. The line you suggest, I think, would be misleading to those types of users. "vanilla" has too many ideological implications, as a recent discussion exposes -- the user suggests moving away from Ubuntu to a distro that uses less space! As I'm looking at it again, "Create a fresh..." might lead someone to reinstall. How about, "Run the following commands on a fresh Ubuntu Noble 24.04 x64 server". Action words are always nice! Then, "A domain is required to install Cloudron". (no change) Then, "A server with at least 2GB RAM & 20GB space for essential installation." .... you know, this newly added line invites tooo many questions. "Run these commands on a fresh Ubuntu Noble 24.04 x64 server / (with a minimum of 2GB RAM and 20GB disk space)" COMMANDS A domain is required to install Cloudron. More info [here](https://docs.cloudron.io/installation/) That way all the text stays within the visual black box of the commands image, rather than a visually descending line of sight (I don't know the correct term).[image: 1735892029629-screenshot-2025-01-03-at-15.00.32-resized.png]

    While this kit is more geared towards folks with a local GPU, the idea behind is not bad at all. The guy behind bolt.diy has a great video on how to use the new features of n8n which include AI Agent nodes which you can connect to any external API. Here's the video: I also think this is a nice way to train the Agent to analyze Cloudron repos of packaged Apps to learn how to package new ones with less effort. Give it a go!

    @pHneutre the best solution at present is to change your update schedule to be every hour https://docs.cloudron.io/updates/#update-schedule then it'll do one an hour until it's done.

    Cloudron can sync (although only one-way) user accounts. One Cloudron becomes the single source of truth. So yes if that Cloudron is down, and sessions within the apps on other connected Cloudron require login, it will be a temporary issue. Full two-way sync is a hard topic and also error prone with required conflict resolution. Given that virtual servers are very stable these days, I would go with a dedicated Cloudron acting as the main user-directory for others. Mostly this is also how we use it internally. The docs for doing that one-way are at https://docs.cloudron.io/user-directory/#cloudron

    @humptydumpty said in Downloading backups from dashboard: It's not possible to download the actual backup from the dashboard yet. Looks like it is now possible if using tar.gz backups [image: 1733853062263-screenshot_20241210-175016_firefox.png] [image: 1733853062290-screenshot_20241210-175030_firefox.png] I'm hoping with 8.2 it'll be possible to do rsync to one location and tar.gz to another

    The pinned tab is of the dashboard /apps/ and I always sign out before closing the browser. As for privacy extensions, I have only uBlock Origin (took out all the rest), but it's disabled for my Cloudron domains, so I've eliminated that possibility. I'll test on another device with a fresh firefox along with my VPN setup to rule out any browser issue. Most likely, it's my VPN/DNS settings. Funny thing though, my plan just expired with Torguard and I switched to Proton Plus and have an active month of Mullvad to test/compare them both. Issue is consistent regardless of which VPN I'm using. Any way, I'll run some more tests. Thanks!

    @LoudLemur You could do that. No problem. You can specify the mail server location to be any SUB and pick any of the domains you have set up in Cloudron. To make things even wackier, you could use multiple subdomains like sub.sub.domain.com as the mail server.

    @girish Maybe you can help me understand the API documentation. Below what I'm trying to set up: A n8n form that will give people the option to enter an address to either add or remove it from the list. However I'm struggling to understand what the payload should look like for the web hook request: { "nodes": [ { "parameters": { "formTitle": "Change List", "formFields": { "values": [ { "fieldLabel": "E-Mail", "fieldType": "email", "placeholder": "E-Mail@tld.onl", "requiredField": true }, { "fieldLabel": "Action", "fieldType": "dropdown", "fieldOptions": { "values": [ { "option": "+" }, { "option": "-" } ] } } ] }, "responseMode": "lastNode", "options": {} }, "type": "n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger", "typeVersion": 2.2, "position": [ 140, 240 ], "id": "ce3e3e25-8d70-420b-aaae-48acd5dc3bad", "name": "On form submission", "webhookId": "290cb5dc-0f99-42a2-b3e9-32d9ef27761c" }, { "parameters": { "method": "POST", "url": "https://my.tld.onl/api/v1/mail/domain/lists/test", "authentication": "genericCredentialType", "genericAuthType": "httpHeaderAuth", "sendBody": true, "bodyParameters": { "parameters": [ { "name": "members", "value": "={{ $json.Action }} [{{ $json['E-Mail'] }}] " } ] }, "options": {} }, "type": "n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest", "typeVersion": 4.2, "position": [ 400, 240 ], "id": "d223c671-6340-416a-affa-12966a42b2d3", "name": "HTTP Request1", "credentials": { "httpHeaderAuth": { "id": "swkFIAxjlW7JU6oB", "name": "my.tld.onl API" } } } ], "connections": { "On form submission": { "main": [ [ { "node": "HTTP Request1", "type": "main", "index": 0 } ] ] } }, "pinData": {} } ```", "requiredField": true }, { "fieldLabel": "Handlung", "fieldType": "dropdown", "fieldOptions": { "values": [ { "option": "+" }, { "opttld.onlion": "-" } ] } } ] }, "responseMode": "lastNode", "options": {} }, "type": "n8n-nodes-base.formTrigger", "typeVersion": 2.2, "position": [ 140, 240 ], "id": "ce3e3e25-8d70-420b-aaae-48acd5dc3bad", "name": "On form submission", "webhookId": "290cb5dc-0f99-42a2-b3e9-32d9ef27761c" }, { "parameters": { "method": "POST", "url": "https://my.tld.onl/api/v1/mail/domain/lists/test", "authentication": "genericCredentialType", "genericAuthType": "httpHeaderAuth", "sendBody": true, "bodyParameters": { "parameters": [ { "name": "members", "value": "={{ $json.Action }} [{{ $json['E-Mail'] }}] " } ] }, "options": {} }, "type": "n8n-nodes-base.httpRequest", "typeVersion": 4.2, "position": [ 400, 240 ], "id": "d223c671-6340-416a-affa-12966a42b2d3", "name": "HTTP Request1", "credentials": { "httpHeaderAuth": { "id": "swkFIAxjlW7JU6oB", "name": "my.tld.onl API" } } } ], "connections": { "On form submission": { "main": [ [ { "node": "HTTP Request1", "type": "main", "index": 0 } ] ] } }, "pinData": {} }

    Good points and I agree. I’ve tried most, and they don’t perform even a fraction as well as Cloudron. Kudos and respect to @girish @nebulon @staff for all they do to make Cloudron the only viable offering of its kind.
