And again (or so it seems).

Custom App under active development, resulting in frequent additions to CloudronVersions.json and growing file size (~2000 lines).
Update fails
Trimmed old versions content so file is now ~200 lines, just the initial 0.0.1 version and the latest versions.
Update starts working again.

Maybe it is some local weirdness (my problem), so would be good to know if others see similar issues when CloudronVersions.json grows large, and if Cloudron team have encountered this.

@paradoxbound thanks for investigating . I will fix the timeouts .

Small update : although fearful of breaking my production Cloudron, I installed the Netbird client on the box (via command line outside the Cloudron environment - sorry Cloudron team).
Did netbird up -m <separate VPS running management server> -k <netbird key>.
Worked flawlessly.
On management server, added my Cooudron netbird peer into my private network.
Now apps on Cloudron can reach my laptop, and vice versa, via private network.

Specifically a Cloudron app can use Ollama on my laptop running a private model to benefit from Mac Silicon "nearly-gpu-like" performance.
My Cloudron Ollama can't properly run the model because it is CPU only.
Cloudron Ollama running local model on CPU runs at ~6 tokens, or lower.
Mac Ollama private local model achieves ~40 tokens/second.
Not as good as on-demand GPU instance at 80-150 t/s or running an ollama:cloud model also at 80-150 t/s (model dependent).
But 40 t/s is not too shabby and and is viable performance without the cost of an always-on or on-demand GPU.

So getting Netbird management server on Cloudron would definitely be a good thing. Shall try to pick that up shortly.

@marcusquinn you know what, I'd forgotten that I had started looking at this ! Goldfish ! Might have a look this weekend.

It's a bit convoluted, but setting OIDC_IGNORE_ROLES=true in the /app/data/env at least lets you persist role changes across restarts/re-auths when using SSO. Otherwise each SSO-login will reset the roles based on their OIDC groups based role assignment.

That way you could:

a) login via SSO
b) logout and re-login with the default admin
c) make your SSO logged in user an admin
d) deactivate the default admin

And have a usable system through Cloudron SSO.

Uploading avatars is also currently not possible (apparently due to the read-only file system):

Object { code: "E_UNPROCESSABLE_ENTITY", message: "EROFS: read-only file system, mkdir '/app/code/.tmp'" }

code: "E_UNPROCESSABLE_ENTITY"

message: "EROFS: read-only file system, mkdir '/app/code/.tmp'"

<prototype>: Object { … }
index-DaNiSWdh.js:32:6638
The above error occurred in task queueRequest
index-DaNiSWdh.js:32:6655

maybe there is a way we can "mount around" that?

It also would be super cool if we could edit the terms (see docs: https://docs.planka.cloud/docs/configuration/customizing-end-user-terms). Maybe we can symlink /var/www/planka/terms/custom to a folder in /app/data ?

I also like Netbird, I have a server running on a non-Cloudron VPS, connecting devices to each other when needed, and making an in-house box available to selected people in external organisations.

"Netbird on Cloudron" can mean :

use an app on Cloudron to act as 'server'
install the Netbird client at Cloudron VPS command line (not an app - outside of Cloudron platform), so Cloudron box is on the Netbird network, but no Cloudron app needed. I'd tend towards this if it viable, but my network routing knowledge is poor.

Are peeps here thinking about it a different way ?

@James fair point .... but still stupid IMHO. Especially as it worked perfectly well in 3Gb until recent updates. Not much time to research an alternative just now so will live with it. Simply because I'm lucky enough to have 128Gb RAM on my Cloudron VPS .... but I didn't spec it that way to be wasted on Umami.
