Natwest

Allow me to suggest divesting from banks that still fund fossil fuel projects

NatWest has been lending to some very questionable fossil fuel friends.

And it's not just a little here and there, we’re talking about $13 billion in the 5 years since 197 countries agreed to drastically reduce their greenhouse gas emissions in the Paris Agreement.

I recommended Starling Bank for business banking and Nationwide for personal banking

@jdaviescoates yes, it is on my plan

I don't think Akaunting (nor any other open source web accounting software I'm aware of) will automatically import bank feeds etc either

Paid plugin will https://akaunting.com/apps/bank-feeds

Thanks!

Now, I'm very interested!

@timconsidine for Quickfile - one of my favourite non-open-source apps.

What is the current status of Akaunting? I tried installing it in a LAMP stack but that doesn't seem to work

[andreasdueren]

So I have been trying to install akaunting within a LAMP stack with limited success. There is an error during installation, but it runs fairly normal after that. However, some plugins don't work properly and updating via GUI/CLI doesn't work. Support narrowed it down to the path of the PHP executable not being correct and gave me this link: https://akaunting.com/hc/docs/faq/i-cant-install-apps/

I would like to try this out by changing the PHP path in the env as described in the documentation:
APP_PHP_PATH="/usr/bin/php8.0"

@girish Could you help me with this? Is it /etc/php/8.1?

@andreasdueren said in Akaunting - Free Accounting Software:

APP_PHP_PATH="/usr/bin/php8.0"

I guess this is an Akaunting variable ? If so, this would be /usr/bin/php8.1 in the lamp app.

@andreasdueren Did you have any more luck in making Akaunting functional?

[andreasdueren]

@avatar1024 I’m still testing it but it seems to be working now after spending bigger amounts of time troubleshooting quirks and errors

[avatar1024]

@andreasdueren Great to hear! If you get the chance to share the process you've followed that'd be much appreciated.

Also do you think some of your work might get us closer to get a Cloudron package for it?

Tried to upvote this post but wasn't allowed to, so commenting instead. Seconding this request, Akaunting would be an excellent addition to the Cloudron store, please add!
