Also a bit confused as this just revealed to me that matrix is storing my thumbnails unencrypted?! [image: 1763063527990-screenshot-2025-11-13-at-13.51.42-resized.png]

@robi I deleted that message, was spam .

@andreasdueren It's resolved ^^. We're typing at the same time

@tomnick this is the Cloudron forum . It's for the matrix synapse package on Cloudron .

on top of everything, Element X require livekit & jwt to work; if you are using OpenID connect - you have to use MAS, as Element X will not work otherwise (not now, nor ever).

@DidierMalenfant test with command line tools to see if there are any formatting issues that might be causing this.

@stefanwirtz said in New to Cloudron & Matrix/Element: the error message I got was command not found What is this error message from? (Your statement above this says curl worked fine?) .

Yeah, MAS jumped from all of the sudden from 0.2.something to 1.0 - very well... And that is all with 136 issues opened, including the issue when the user won't be created as it should. I've ejected Synapse from Cloudron and run it independently - it is kind of working (if you don't mind get your hands dirty in the database), but if you don't need Element Calls - I can't see no real benefits. Not sure if the question was anyhow directed on me, but I hope that rant might be of some use anyway

I can recommend to disable e2ee for channels. This makes everything smoother and especially allows all clients to search for messages without downloading everything. If you trust the server (probably your own) with the synapse instance, e2ee doesn't bring much extra security wise.

@james I never got OIDC "fixed". I was able to log in again simply by resetting the password. I haven't tried adding new users since the migration because only my immediate family and myself use the app. Feel free to mark it as solved. Thank you.

If I understand correctly, https://github.com/element-hq/element-call has to be packaged as a separate app package. Maybe you can open an App request here and we can look into it .

Man that helps a lot. Thank you so much. I wonder if we want to update the docs to add rooms/spaces via matrixrooms.info because of this. Either way, thank you so very much.

@jdaviescoates I installed Element X the moment I heard about it. It logged in fine and ran both apps on my phone for a while. @BrutalBirdie I think that's the root of my issues now that you mention it. I migrated my Synapse to another Cloudron a while back, app only and not the CR users. Luckily, I just had to reset the password to get it working again, but things definitely aren't wired right in the backend. I have too many work related room that I don't want to lose, hence the procrastination of setting up a new Synapse.

@nichu42 OK thanks I have to read through the whole documentation then to try this out

@nebulon not sure. Maybe I accidentally removed it when I set up Prometheus

Negative. Please, disregard what have been said earlier: OpenID from Cloudron could be used as is. Happy to share my findings on setting up the service with @vladimir.d or whoever will be doing this configuration for everyone on Cloudron.

I've deleted everything due to me making an error - use the base domain for checking, not matrix.basedoman.com.
