Yes, you actually do not even need a subscription for all of your Cloudron installation. As long as your staging system stays below the app limit it works fine without it. I guess it depends on your size and the amount of overlapping projects.

I have been doing this for around 2 years as I run a Mailman instance alongside Cloudron and it works very well, however on occasions (upgrades) I find the /etc/nginx/applications directory is oblitterated and I have to copy my custom .conf file again.

Is there any chance we could get an include setup for a directory like sites-enabled where Cloudron doesn't touch files in that directory? I'm also interested if we can use the reverse proxy configuration tool in Cloudron itself to provide this capability but suspect it won't allow me to set up the custom features in Nginx I want.

I realise this is only supported on a best-guess effort but it would be really good if we could have a "you're on your own" directory where we know it won't wipe out the contents where we can add our own custom Nginx configuration.

@AartJansen AS @nebulon says, installing these after Cloudron may affect things. What I've done a few times in the past is install tools like these BEFORE installing Cloudron. If they still work, great. If not, then likely post-Cloudron-installation would have messed something up.

@LoudLemur
Thanks. I did write some documentations with Hugo and Sphinx. But in this case I look for a way to write directly in an online app. I think I look for something like typst but more focused on writing.

@LoudLemur said in [Guide] How to host Cloudron behind a reverse proxy with Tailscale:

A lot of people who have a home home/office connection do not have a fixed IP address. If and when it changes, they would lose access.

True! You used to be able to buy them for a fee, but it’s not possible anymore with my ISP…. A way around that would be great.

The 256Mb is just the initial upper memoryLimit set for apps. This does not mean that much memory is also allocated. Anyways memory usage heavily depends on the usage of the app as such and how many parallel active users are using an app. Usually all this is very hard to define upfront and needs to be tested in real conditions.

Enclosure in the context of technology, particularly open-source, refers to the phenomenon where a technology that was initially open and accessible becomes controlled or monopolized by a specific entity or group. This can happen through various means, such as strategic acquisitions, licensing restrictions, or the development of proprietary features that are not available in the open-source version. Some examples of enclosure include:
Oracle's acquisition of Sun Microsystems, which led to the discontinuation of the open-source OpenSolaris operating system.
Google's acquisition of Android and the development of proprietary features and services (like Google Play Services) that are not available in the open-source version (AOSP).
Microsoft's acquisition of GitHub, which raised concerns about the future of open-source projects hosted on the platform.
These examples illustrate how the enclosure can happen through strategic acquisitions and the development of proprietary features, leading to the control or monopolization of open-source technology.

Yes that is what I'm asking.

@humptydumpty for the sake of transparency, we are now a team of 4 (including @nebulon and myself) full-time. We also have a couple helping us part-time with support. But other than that you are spot on 😄 We don't have any interest in growth for growth’s sake.

@BrutalBirdie As currently possible manually as described here: https://forum.cloudron.io/post/80825

@zonzonzon It's the best FOSS you'll find. Don't know your other experience, but you can pretty much get Espo to do anything you please. If you need accounting done for you, though, Odoo is also a consideration, and their SaaS pricing ain't too bad for what you get.

@girish
Thanks, that makes sense. Have setup external monitoring for port 25. Appreciate the speedy response as always.

@taowang said in Caprover... mysterious fails - Cloudron just works!:

So far as I discovered, Cloudron has the best backup approach, the best upgrade approach, the best forum, and the best documentation. I just started using Cloudron this week. The speed at which Cloudron staff replies to emails and forum posts is mind blowing. And they iterate their product based on feedback at lightening speed.

Welcome! You sound like me (and lots of us!) when I first discovered Cloudron a few years ago 🙂

Solved! With a push monitor in Uptime Kuma and a curl script on the computers.

We will have support for Ubuntu 24 starting from Cloudron 8 (next release).

I figured that putting in a VPN might beef up security by encrypting the traffic to and from Cloudron servers. My bad if I've got it wrong; I'm still new to this stuff.
