Free version does not give 2 apps

[girish]

@Mythotical I think the issue was that the cloudron was attached to an expired subscription. Currently, we have to do some manual steps to move from paid -> free. I have moved yours to free now. Does it work now?

[Mythotical]

Yes, indeed it does work now. Thanks again for all the help.

@girish I think I have the same issue, but for me I can't update any apps.

So you still have to perform the steps manually?

Can you fix it for me too?

Cloudron Support,

I think I'm having the same issue. I haven't used my Cloudron account for a while; today I tried to install the 2nd free App, but I'm getting the same message.

I already sent an email to support, but I received an auto-response stating that I should post the issue on this forum:

We have answered the support ticket, but the app limit is handled differently since Cloudron 9.2 so this should not really apply anymore as everyhing is not local to the server and not tracked like it used to be.

@nebulon is this documented or elaborated anywhere?

[nebulon]

The difference is just a technical one, where we solve a potential case of misalignment, not a change in behavior. I don't think there is much to document as such. I guess one can see the previous flow as a bug which got fixed.
