Uninstalled apps stuck in the System Info page

[benborges]

the thing is the only way I can have that spin button to be available (clickable) is to reboot the server
it's still spinning since the last time I rebooted, but I can't reboot right now, server is busy moving files

Then we can just wait until that is finished or the task times out eventually. I don't think the graph display is that urgent. Anyways you can SSH into the server and check the disk there.

I have SSHed into it and found the task that seem to be associated with this and found this :

➜  tasks grc tail -f 5728.log

this is the storage box of my hetzner backup, and the backup folder does exist there, would that be the issue ?

[girish]

@benborges in theory, the code should move on despite the failure to get the du of one app. Does that task complete? or are these the last lines you posted?

[benborges]

@girish those are the last lines, it never completes apparently
by the way, this is the du of one remote storage volume, not an app itself

[girish]

@benborges ah, looks like du -DsB1 /mnt/volumes/8190a2686d454328b1ef83461c30de1a just hangs. Can you check what happens when you run it? I guess it's got a lot of data is it?

[benborges]

hangs also here, it has a few GB of backup and also some 40 or 50 GB of music files
1.3 TB of data for 5 TB available

DUF works fine, like instantly, but not DU

It's a CIFS mount, maybe I should unmount it, remount it as SSHFS and see if goes better, hmm

[benborges]

OK I managed to find the culprit, apparently some of my external volumes storage mounts were mounted with an incorrect path, the weird thing is that they are mounted and I can browse the volume with the file manager but when cloudron run's a du on all the disks and remote storage, it fails when it arrives to these badly mounted storage volumes and stays there for ever.

SO, I'm going to have to remove them from their attached app, remove them from the volume section,
remount them properly and re-attach them to each app, it's gonna be a bit of work, but I want this to work without flaws like this

Not sure how common this is, but I will put a timeout in our code and mark such volumes as "size cannot be determined"

[benborges]

Solved!

Just for the sake of someone else stumbling into the same issue :

Backup SSHFS mount with hetzner storage box should always be mounted pointing to the exact sub folder where backup will be stored, so the path would be /home/yourfolder and the URL to the server should not contain any path.

Now, if you use the same storage volume mounted a second time, as a volume to be added to specific apps then the URL is always ID.your-storagebox.de and the path field is simply /
no need to specify any folder.

The issue here is that I had it to mount the URL of the storage box ID.your-storagebox.de/home + / in the path
and that was the origin of the mess, the odd part is that it did mount and the volume was usable via the filemanager just fine, it's just that the hdparam.sh script would freak out due to this confusion in the path.

Anyway, solved !
