Cloudron post install questions
-
@nebulon I tried that actually and was able to get it connected. However, now I have an app that is stuck on 'installing' and won't let me stop the task, or remove the app (or go through the steps that requires placing the app in a recovery mode).
Is there a way to completely wipe my slate so that I can try to install an app again?

You can just reboot the server. That should make it unstuck if this is related to the Ubuntu kernel issue. Can you please try that?

@BrutalBirdie I'm checking this now, thanks for the link.

I've tried that. First rule of troubleshooting, eh?

@BrutalBirdie Applied that via SSH, everything went smoothly. However, the app is still stuck in 'installing' mode and won't let me stop or remove it.

@ejarvis Ah, the "Queued" usually either means the platform is still starting or the backup is running. For the latter, you can check in the Backups view. For the former, can you see
/home/yellowtent/platformdata/logs/box.log
? Does it show some error or goes on about platform lock not released? -

@girish Well, the result is interesting:

Authentication is required to restart 'box.service'.
Authenticating as: Edwin Jarvis (jarvis)

@ejarvis
Did you install Cloudron on your Ubuntu Desktop Computer?
It looks like you are running as userjarvis
who does not have permission to execute that command.
So you should usesudo systemctl restart box.service
But please answer first on what systems you installed Cloudron.
Like very specific, tell us all. -

Authenticating as: Edwin Jarvis (jarvis)Looks like CentOS Desktop to me.
@ejarvis please post the output of
cat /etc/*-release
If you're not on Ubuntu 20.04 or 22.04 we won't help you any further and I would advice you to follow the Cloudron installation docs. -

Do you think this is part of the issue?

For what it's worth, I did follow the cloudron install docs that you linked. Prior to that, the server has been running on that limited desktop environment.
If I need to nuke it all and do it again, it's not that much of a hassle.
EDIT: Nuking it now.

Like very specific, tell us all.I do notice that there are two users listed in the server now, my own as it was set up when I installed the server, and the Cloudron account that I assume was installed with their script.
The 'jarvis' account is root.
