    Hi @andreasdueren, Thanks for reaching out. I’m currently using the paid cloud version of Kitsu. The Docker version works for testing purposes. I installed it locally following this tutorial: . I understand that many professional studios self-host and use this app for production, but it requires technical skills for setup and maintenance, as many of the Docker files seem to be deprecated. As well as the GitHub page, there is a dedicated Kitsu community Discord server where users can discuss installation and usage issues: https://discord.gg/kJ7SmmUPM Best whises

    @alphagroup if it's an actual clone, you can just install the initial app, create a backup and clone the app to a new (sub)domain for each customer. If they don't have access, you might want to check out the Cloudron CLI or API and build some Dashboard around that

    @klawitterb Oh I see, good point, that part escaped my notice. Mediafiles are directly served by nginx and only the rest is forwarded to Gunicorn. #serve media files location /media/ { alias /app/data/mediafiles/; } # pass requests for dynamic content to gunicorn location / { proxy_set_header Host $http_host; proxy_pass http://localhost:8080; # -> this gos to Gunicorn } So with the Cloudron Nginx, static files would still be served from Gunicorn. SO I guess, it is worth the effort Thanks for that.

    @privsec why? The two are separate things. Cloudron devs maintain the packaged updates, app maintainers the code.

    @jodumont I believe the problem may come from the --daemon flag that you pass in the start.sh. Can you try removing that ?

    @grienauer When I did my testing for the Valheim Server App I wrote this script to make testing easier. Note tho, this only works when not using any addons, but localstorage works with the local mount. #!/bin/bash # Function to get the user to input the needed vars get_vars () { read -p "Cloudron E-Mail: " EMAIL read -p "Cloudron Username: " USERNAME read -s -p "Cloudron Password: " PASSWORD read -p "Cloudron URL: " CLOUDRON_URL read -p "DOCKER REPOSITORY URL: " DOCKER_REPOSITORY_URL read -p "DOCKER USERNAME: " DOCKER_REPOSITORY_USERNAME read -p -s "DOCKER PASSWORD: " DOCKER_REPOSITORY_PASSWORD printf "EMAIL=$EMAIL\n USERNAME=$USERNAME\n PASSWORD=$PASSWORD\n CLOUDRON_URL=$CLOUDRON_URL\n DOCKER_REPOSITORY_URL=$DOCKER_REPOSITORY_URL\n DOCKER_REPOSITORY_USERNAME=$DOCKER_REPOSITORY_USERNAME\n DOCKER_REPOSITORY_PASSWORD=$DOCKER_REPOSITORY_PASSWORD\n " > .env } # check if .env file exists and read it or check if vars exsist if [ -f ".env" ]; then export $(egrep -v '^#' .env | xargs) &> /dev/null else echo ".env File missing - asking for required vars" get_vars fi if [ -z "$EMAIL" ] || [ -z "$USERNAME" ] || [ -z "$PASSWORD" ] || [ -z "$CLOUDRON_URL" ] || [ -z "$DOCKER_REPOSITORY_URL" ] || [ -z "$DOCKER_REPOSITORY_USERNAME" ] || [ -z "$DOCKER_REPOSITORY_PASSWORD" ]; then echo "some vars are empty - asking for required vars" get_vars fi echo "=> Login Docker" docker login --username $DOCKER_REPOSITORY_USERNAME --password $DOCKER_REPOSITORY_PASSWORD $DOCKER_REPOSITORY_URL echo "=> Login Cloudron" cloudron login --username $USERNAME --password $PASSWORD my.$CLOUDRON_URL set -x # Get the ID and VERSION from the CloudronManifest.json ID=$(jq -r ".id" CloudronManifest.json) VERSION=$(jq -r ".version" CloudronManifest.json) echo "=> Create Test Data dir" mkdir -p ./cloudron_test/data ./cloudron_test/tmp ./cloudron_test/run echo "=> Cleanup Test Data" rm -rf ./cloudron_test/data/* ./cloudron_test/tmp/* ./cloudron_test/run/* echo "=> Build test image" cloudron build --set-repository $DOCKER_REPOSITORY_URL/$ID # docker build -t $DOCKER_REPOSITORY_URL/$ID:$VERSION . if [[ RUN_IMG = "" ]]; then read -p "Do you want to run the image created image?: (y/N)" RUN_IMG fi if [[ "$RUN_IMG" = "y" || "$RUN_IMG" = "Y" ]]; then echo "=> Run `test` tag of build image" docker run -ti --read-only \ --volume $(pwd)/cloudron_test/data:/app/data:rw \ --volume $(pwd)/cloudron_test/tmp:/tmp:rw \ --volume $(pwd)/cloudron_test/run:/run:rw \ $DOCKER_REPOSITORY_URL/$ID:$VERSION \ bash fi echo "=> Running tests" cd test echo "=> Running ncu - updating deps" ncu -u npm -i echo "=> Installing package.json" npm install if [[ -f ./node_modules/.bin/mocha ]]; then ./node_modules/.bin/mocha ./test.js -b fi if [[ -f ../node_modules/.bin/mocha ]]; then ../node_modules/.bin/mocha ./test.js -b fi # remove installed test instance echo "Cancel now if you wish to keep the app installed" sleep 10 cloudron uninstall --app test.$CLOUDRON_URL

    @jodumont If you run the node file for cloudron directly (add it to your PATH) you don't need the set-executionpolicy bit. Node is separate from powershell and as such it can run without that.

    @jimcavoli I think that makes sense. Let me see if I can get the recvmail addon working again, should be straightforward. For your suggestion of having a "selector" in the email UI, we did exactly that for sendmail addon in the previous release. So, we can do the same for recvmail as well I guess. Let me investigate.

    @moocloud_matt As soon as someone comes in reporting a real case that their NIC is saturated and it's slowing down their server I'd be interested in pursuing a solution. I've never seen such a real case on these forums (though I may just be misinformed) so I'd have to tilt towards YAGNI until one appears. Object storage is not magic, it's just data like everything else. If it's just used to serve file attachments for an app with 25 users I wouldn't expect it to be a bottleneck.

    @atridad it's not so easy, you need to compile all the C extensions modules that you are using. For example, are not compatible libraries because there's no way to easily compile them are tensorflow, pytorch. But in generaly Yes is compatible with all the python code because it's a fork of its default interpreter/compiler CPython.
