@girish what's the file location for the /run folder that I symlinked earlier? I logged in via SFTP using FileZilla and can see the all the server folders (/) but haven't been able to locate the symlinked folder.

[girish]

@humptydumpty that sftp looks suspect. Only the /app/data directory is exposed via SFTP and not the entire container filesystem. Looks like you are logged in somewhere else.

There is no way to browse /run etc via SFTP. You have to use the Web Terminal.

@girish I'm logging in as root and I'm positive that the IP is my Contabo VPS. On first login, the page looks like this.

Then, I can click on / and it shows this:

Any way, there's no way to access the /logs folder now via the web terminal in Cloudron dashboard. It's showing a grey file icon and double-clicking or right-clicking > open, does nothing. Brain fart! You're saying web terminal and I'm even typing it but thinking of the file manager Nevermind!

[humptydumpty]

To continue on the root SFTP access thing, I can see /box and /boxdata in the /yellowtent folder.

Should I be concerned about this?

concerned about? you are browsing the server's filesystem. The app runs as a container and has it's own filesytem. The app's filesystem is difficult to browse via SFTP.

[humptydumpty]

Ah, noted. I misunderstood what you meant and thought that I shouldn't have been able to browse/see the server folders. Thanks for bearing with me!

Any updates/ progress on getting this into the App Store? Could @Staff or any other @appdev help it along?

@lao9s I will buy a Pro licence as soon as this is in the Cloudron App Store

(also still kicking myself I didn't get a lifetime one while I could even though I still wouldn't've been able to use it yet )

[girish]

@jdaviescoates https://forum.cloudron.io/post/70435 still remains valid. It's not possible to package this for Cloudron .

Any chance you can change the way it works @lao9s ?

[rmdes]

Still really exciting to see this up and running on cloudron with hands on approach using the LAMP, I'm definitely going to try this out

That's not quite entirely true, no? There is a writable part in /app/data and /var/run. It could be excluded from backups too depending on what directory it is downloaded to, say a hidden .pro dir.

It's also possible to create an in-memory file system, and have it download the Pro version there at every start. Otherwise it's the lite version.

[humptydumpty]

@robi I wish this can get sorted out. Keeping up with updates manually is a real PITA.

I started a guide for Mixpost Lite in this thread:
https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/11088/mixpost-lite-install-guide-for-lamp-app

Let me know if I missed something.

BTW this also works no problem in the enterprise version.

[andreasdueren]

I honestly don't know how much sense it makes to package this. It seems to run super smooth in the LAMP app and there are so many different versions to keep up with packaging

[humptydumpty]

@andreasdueren the app has to be changed/unified by Dima @lao9s if a package is to be made, and it doesn't look like he is willing to make that happen. We have plenty of paid apps packaged on Cloudron. I don't understand the rationale behind his refusal.

[andreasdueren]

He's maybe focussing on developing it further right now and doesn't want the workload of packaging apps. I'm currently happy with the composer version as the docker one also doesn't have all the features.

[humptydumpty]

@andreasdueren I wish it's a time/focus issue. He's worried about licensing/ownership of the app. Any way, the composer method is the same method as the guide above? It's been a while and I forgot what method I was using.

[andreasdueren]

Yes i'ts what you've been working on. I think I followed some of the instructions somewhere here for the lite version but applied it to the enterprise one
