@atridad how come the files refer to Pydio?

[A Former User]

@christiaan Oh I imported my Pydio repo as a starting point.

This would definitely be nice to have. If anyone wants to give it another shot it seems like an awesome alternative. Owncloud with a more performant backend will always be a good idea.

Exciting! I'd love to see ownCloud hosted on Cloudron. We've been using SyncThing for files and while effective, it has proven difficult to get new members of the team set up with it. Of course, ownCloud has many additional features besides file sync that would be valuable as well.

To be fair, Nextcloud 24 is such a leap in speed, and we're easily serving 4Tb to 100 users. I wonder if speed and scaling Nextcloud is a solved thing

Just spotted this and figured I'd share in case anyone is interested

I'm working on this but my biggest frustration thus far has been the way they seem to touch every damn part of the filesystem and there appears to be no easy way to configure everything to work out of /app/data or /app/code.

Has anyone else taken a crack at this or would like to collab? Repo here: https://git.atrilahiji.dev/atrilahiji/cloudron-ocis-app

Calling all @appdev

Made a issue on their git: https://github.com/owncloud/ocis/issues/2021

Does anybody know if this is resolved in the beta?

[fbartels]

@christiaan according to the GitHub issue this should no longer be a problem.

[christiaan]

So I see ownCloud Infinite Scale was officially released last week:

https://owncloud.com/news/infinite-scale-release/

What does this mean for possible addition to the App Store?

[girish]

There's installation instructions at https://doc.owncloud.com/ocis/next/quickguide/quickguide.html

I gave it a try.

Currently, it's very bare bones. All it has is a UI to upload files and nothing else. It also complains about could not get ldap Connection on start up. There are no docs on how to configure all that afaict.

[girish]

It also uses a wide range of ports, not sure why - https://doc.owncloud.com/ocis/next/deployment/services/ports-used.html

@girish okay then, thanks for the update.
