but when it comes to profile photo change. it doesn't work.
Ah, but I'm also hitting this issue.
Did you manage to get it solved @ehsan0921 ?

Once upstream makes a new release with the fix, we will update the package of course.
I'm confused though, because that fix was committed back in July 2022 and is tagged Pixelfed 0.11.4 which is also what we're running on Cloudron, so I'm unclear why Profile pics with S3 enabled aren't working?

Aha looking at the link for the avatar image, I see it's like this:
If I take of off the superflous https://bridport.pics at the beginning it works fine:
So I wonder how/ why that extra bit is coming from...
I can see this in the logs:
Jan 22 13:59:19 [2023-01-22 13:59:18] production.ERROR: Image source not readable {"exception":"[object] (Intervention\\Image\\Exception\\NotReadableException(code: 0): Image source not readable at /app/code/vendor/intervention/image/src/Intervention/Image/AbstractDecoder.php:351)
So I don't know if this is a bug or if I've got something wrong in my config?

Reading this https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/issues/4041
It sounds like you have to have
FILESYSTEM_DRIVE=local
for the Avatars to work. So I tried that.But now it seems all files are getting stored twice, once locally and then again in the Object Storage.
See e.g. https://bridport.pics/i/web/post/522792891553329155
Really I only want to store thing in the object storage, not locally at all. But I've got
MEDIA_DELETE_LOCAL_AFTER_CLOUD=true
so maybe eventually it will delete the local versions?Yep, it seems that perhaps files are just being cached locally, because if I open the Web Terminal and run
php artisan cache:clear
then right-click Open image in new tab it opens the S3 version (although as you can see in the post linked to above, for now the local version still seems to exist too... presumably eventually that'll get deleted, ah but then again perhaps not as per https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/issues/3845#issuecomment-1331691661 ). -

I've filed an issue about this:
https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/issues/4114
I've also confirmed that manually deleting images from the local storage via the File Manager does not break posts.

@jdaviescoates similar impact on the latest build since we switched to dev branch! cc: @girish FYI only. Hope they get that bug fixed
-
@doodlemania2 yeah, it seems at present if you want profile images/ avatars to work you HAVE to have
FILESYSTEM_DRIVER=local
but then all your media is store BOTH locally AND on S3. Odd.The obvious solution would seem to me to be to simply make avatars/ profile images work when
FILESYSTEM_DRIVER=s3
too, then all would be fine and dandy imho. -
@jdaviescoates yep - it's a bit of an odd situation. and blocking me from going live

Like it to help them pay attention to is?

I'm not expecting to be swamped with users and so I've decided to go live with having everything store twice for now because I've a fair bit of unused disk space right now. If I end up getting a load of active users then I may need to manually start deleting stuff from local storage until this is fixed, but hopefully it'll be fixed before then!
-
@jdaviescoates I'm stuck on the URL still being munged with half local and half s3 with the profile pic...

Ah, I think removing/ commenting out
AWS_URL
might fix that.Can't remember exactly but I had it and then later after doing something, I didn't.
I think perhaps it was that, or it that plus changing FILESYSTEM_DRIVER from s3 to local.
-
@jdaviescoates filesystem to local did it!

Another weird thing about the app is that if you upload from web, it's serving the image from the Server even though both locations has it.
if you upload from the app, it'll serve from s3.then when you run
php artisan cache:clear
it'll get fixed.Wonder if it'll auto switch to s3 without touching.
Since it's storing images on both locations, will it like auto delete from server?

Hello, is there any update/guidance from the Cloudron team on this? As in the original topic posted- profile images not properly working if using S3 as storage?
Anyone else able to figure anything else out with the profile avatar and using S3 compatible storage?
If I'm understanding this correctly (and I could be wrong), this issue was addressed by this commit back in July 2022. And was bundled into the v0.11.4 release, which was made available in Oct 2022.

@gh0stface so this is what I've setup;
## S3 Storage PF_ENABLE_CLOUD=true FILESYSTEM_DRIVER=local FILESYSTEM_CLOUD=s3 PF_LOCAL_AVATAR_TO_CLOUD=true MEDIA_DELETE_LOCAL_AFTER_CLOUD=true AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=xxx AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=xxx AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=xxx AWS_BUCKET=mediapixelfedsg AWS_URL=https://media.pixelfed.sg AWS_ENDPOINT=https://xxx.backblazeb2.com #AWS_USE_PATH_STYLE_ENDPOINT=false
and it works.
