That went well, I have pushed an update.

Locking this, please see other topic.

@danigl As you probably know, the port 8448 is only for server <-> server communication. What port are you using for server <-> client communication? In Cloudron package, we use the same port for server <-> server and client <-> server communication (which is port 443).

@xavierl I have pushed a new version of synapse that allows matrix to manage it's own users. If you re-install synapse, you will see this option.

@xavierl You practically can. Just grant no Cloudron users access to it while also enabling open registration in the Matrix app internal settings.

@girish I needed it to be able to properly federate with other Matrix servers. Like I said, it was pretty weird.

@scooke No problem It's quite confusing because I have been leaving various bits of progress all over this forum in various places... Just to give an update on the current status. I have gotten synapse published. I put some initial docs at https://cloudron.io/documentation/apps/synapse/ (reading that now, there seems to a big wall of text. I have to simplify it). I am publishing riot now. But both the apps require Cloudron 5.1.4 which is now going through our CI. In 5.1.4, we have a way to add .well-known docs which is required for synapse/riot to work. Hopefully, we should be in a releasable state tomorrow.

@scooke https://git.cloudron.io/msbt/matrix-riot-app is the repo you want to use. Follow instructions in the documentation on how to install the CLI and how to build and install custom apps.
