Mixpost

Full Upgrade Guide:
I followed this doc page:
https://docs.inovector.com/books/mixpost-pro-team/page/upgrading-to-v1In the terminal:
cd to app/data/mixpost-pro-team-apprun command:
composer require inovector/mixpost-pro-team "^1.0"run command:
php artisan make:migration create_mixpost_v1_tablesGo to the file manager:
/app/data/mixpost-pro-team-app/database/migrations
and change ownership of 2023_08_21_121342_create_mixpost_v1_tables.php file fromroottowww-data
Note: your file name will differ as it will have a different date at the beginning.Open
2023_08_21_121342_create_mixpost_v1_tables.phpand replace its content with the migration content from the source guide I posted above. For reference, the code is:<?php use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration; use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint; use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema; use Inovector\Mixpost\Models\Account; return new class extends Migration { public function up(): void { Schema::table('mixpost_accounts', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->boolean('authorized')->default(false)->after('data'); }); Account::withoutWorkspace()->update(['authorized' => true]); Schema::table('mixpost_settings', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->unique(['user_id', 'name']); }); Schema::create('mixpost_user_two_factor_auth', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->id(); $table->bigInteger('user_id')->unsigned()->index(); $table->foreign('user_id')->references('id')->on('users')->onDelete('cascade'); $table->text('secret_key'); $table->text('recovery_codes'); $table->timestamp('confirmed_at')->nullable(); $table->timestamps(); }); Schema::create('mixpost_pages', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->id(); $table->uuid('uuid')->unique(); $table->string('name')->nullable(); $table->string('slug')->unique(); $table->string('meta_title')->nullable(); $table->text('meta_description')->nullable(); $table->string('layout'); $table->boolean('status')->default(0); $table->timestamps(); }); Schema::create('mixpost_blocks', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->id(); $table->string('name'); $table->string('module'); $table->json('content')->nullable(); $table->boolean('status')->default(0); $table->timestamps(); }); Schema::create('mixpost_page_block', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->id(); $table->foreignId('page_id')->constrained('mixpost_pages')->onDelete('cascade'); $table->foreignId('block_id')->constrained('mixpost_blocks')->onDelete('cascade'); $table->json('options')->nullable(); $table->integer('sort_order')->nullable(); }); Schema::create('mixpost_configs', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->id(); $table->string('group'); $table->string('name'); $table->json('payload')->nullable(); $table->unique(['group', 'name']); }); } };Run command:
php artisan migrate
Note: if you get an error at this step, see my post above this one for a fix. Basically, it is a file name mismatch of what's in the /migration folder and the migration table in the database. Rename the file manager files to match the database to fix.run commands (one at a time):
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=mixpost-config --force
php artisan route:cache
php artisan mixpost:clear-settings-cache
php artisan mixpost:clear-services-cache
php artisan horizon:terminateRestart the app
run commands:
cd /app/data/mixpost-pro-team-app/
php artisan horizonMake sure Horizon isn't killing itself and that it reports back. If so, you are DONE!
-
@girish something is keeping horizon alive. Dima and I have no clue what or how. This cron job isn't doing that. Any idea what's going on? Is there some function that comes preinstalled with Cloudron that could be replacing/handling the supervisor job?
* * * * * cd /app/data/mixpost-pro-team-app && php artisan schedule:run >> /app/data/null 2>&1 -
-
@privsec a fresh install will get you to v1 but you might still encounter an error when running php artisan migrate. In that case, follow my post above the upgrade guide to get that sorted out. I think we’ll encounter the same issues when upgrading in the future because the file ownership defaults to root and not www-data for newly added files, so the upgrade guide should apply to future updates.
-
@humptydumpty Ayeee!
GG +1
Well done. I have not messed with my instance recently - my Horizon would eventually kill or become inactive somehow and I would have to manually restart.I was planning on a rebuild and more TS so i will test your steps and report back
-
@plusone-nick I just checked Horizon and it's still running on my instance. I linked Twitter yesterday and made two posts which worked as intended. I think we got a working and stable guide going for Mixpost! The only issue left is figuring out the Horizon magic. How is it alive?! It feels like we created Frankenstein and now trying to see what makes him tick
-
@girish We sorted out all Mixpost installation errors but the Horizon mystery remains. Dima has no clue how Horizon is staying alive without Supervisor. Any thoughts?
-
@humptydumpty and @plusone-nick
Do we need to have Horizon stay alive? Is there a way we can confirm it is up, and if it is not working, what do you do? -
@privsec Horizon has to stay alive. It's a must.
Go to your domain.com/mixpost/admin/system/status page and it should all be green like this.
Also, when you ran the command:
php artisan horizonIf you wait a few seconds, you should see it report back something similar to a ping test:
bla bla bla.... 15ms
bla bla bla... 8msOtherwise, it will say KILLED instead.
If its not working, then you need to redo the installation and apply the "fix" that I posted in comment #83

@privsec Please keep in mind, I just installed it too and I haven't used the app before, so I'm in the same boat as you. However, since we worked out all the errors, the upgrade path should keep all existing posts/users/media/etc. intact.
Start with Nick's installation guide (#49) (skip step 10; somehow the app works without supervisor) and apply the fixes in #83 to get rid of the errors during the outlined steps. Yes, I believe we will have to do the fixes for each upgrade since any new files that get added by the upgrade will default to root ownership which need to be changed to www-data.
My suggestion is to try to install it the first time while keeping in mind that it's a test run just to familiarize yourself with the process. Then, you'll know when to apply the fixes during the intial installation. A cool thing you can do here is to create a backup of the fresh LAMP that you can restore to. If you delete the app and reinstall it, then all the credentials (mysql, phpmyadmin, etc.) will change.
One thing that wasn't mentioned yet, during the installation, you'll be asked "do you want to save these credentials". Say Yes!
I feel comfortable enough to start using the app for my own use. I wouldn't dare give it out to paid clients since it's not a packaged app and Horizon is working automagically but no one knows how because it shouldn't be able to stay alive! With that said, Cloudron backups work and the app itself is stable enough for production use.
-
@privsec I just realized my mistake. For the initial installation follow #49 (skip step 10; somehow the app works without supervisor) and apply the fixes in #83 to get rid of the errors during the outlined steps.
In the future when you need to upgrade from v1.0 to v1.X, follow the upgrade guide in comment #84 and apply the fixes in comment #83. If you do #49 again, user data won't transfer over.
-
@humptydumpty interesting. LAMP app has no special code to run horizon in the background. There must be something else running it. Have you tried to use ps to figure out what the parent process of horizon is?

@humptydumpty Could it be that you started
php artisan horizonmanually on a web terminal ? Have you tested that it starts up automatically after restarting the app ? (which kills all the existing web terminal sessions). -
@girish You're right, after a restart Horizon is inactive. Can this be turned on automatically via a cron like you suggested before? If so, what code should I be using?
-
@humptydumpty yes, correct, you can just put it in the app's cron . Alternately, the LAMP app supports a startup script - https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/lamp/#custom-startup-script .
-
App won't start. I think I know why its because the php artisan horizon has to be cd'd to /app/data/mixpost-pro-team-app/ first. How do you enter that in run.sh?startup script didn't work.After much trial and error, I got the cron method to start horizon automatically after I remembered the @service cron Girish mentioned in an earlier post.
@service cd /app/data/mixpost-pro-team-app && php artisan horizon * * * * * cd /app/data/mixpost-pro-team-app && php artisan schedule:run >> /app/data/null 2>&1@plusone-nick add this cron to your install guide
-
I updated from Mixpost Pro v.1.0.0 to v.1.2.0 using the official Mixpost update guide. But you need to do one thing beforehand, and another at the end to complete the steps on Cloudron.
Step 1: navigate to the mixpost folder before starting the update process
cd /app/data/mixpost-pro-team-app/Step 2: follow update guide https://docs.inovector.com/books/mixpost-pro/page/in-your-standalone-or-laravel-app
Step 3: finish it off by running
php artisan horizonDone.
