Cloudron Forum

@girish Oops, I realized just now, that I didn't reply to your question yet. What I changed and maybe has to be protected from being accidentally overwritten is the 'datadirectory' option in /app/data/config/config.php. I changed that path from the default path to '/media/mymountpoint'. I don't remember if I had Nextcloud in maintenance mode or put the app in recovery mode, while I changed that path and moved the files. But it was either of them. However, I had some duplicate storage paths in the database afterwards and I manually updated the oc_storages table as described here and did a files:scan afterwards. But that should not be related to what the code for updates overwrites, I guess.

Members only flag was added in 5.2

I still really want to be able to filter apps by LDAP support

@jdaviescoates said in Feature request: Notifications about failed backups: As many have previously requested, I would like email notifications after just 1 failed backup, not 3. Agree that this simply needs to be more customizable. We just went for 3 as a compromise of not having the ability to customize

good points, thanks, gonna switch to cifs then!

This is awesome!!! Thanks @nebulon

Thanks for clarifying. I could do that, but I’m only looking to put certain apps behind IP restriction, not all of them.

Just leaving a note to myself here . memcached has mechanism for doing auth easily which makes it hard to make it an addon. There is some complicated SASL based auth setup.

@marcusquinn Great summary! I've similarly found that ingress transaction costs are more than my monthly storage costs with rsync option and tar zip backups keep timing out. @girish Thanks for adding the additional advanced backup configuration in 5.5! I've tried increasing it for my backups and am excited to see if it helps.

@malvim said in Backup Improvements: Restic Backend: @necrevistonnezr how have you been testing backups? I have a raspberry pi at home, set up with restic/rclone backups as well. Once in a while I mount one of the latest snapshots and check a bit randomly if things "look ok". I'd like to have a better system to check if backups are okay, so any pointers would be appreciated. https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/045_working_with_repos.html#checking-integrity-and-consistency and, as I said, spot checks for files with restic-browser.

@girish I seeeeee

@avatar1024 said in how can I use the Cloudron Groups in Nextcloud?: are Cloudron groups not LDAP Yes, Cloudron groups are not in LDAP currently. Currently, if you want to restrict to a group, you can do this already. But if you want groups to sync, that's not implemented. Feel free to open up a feature request to implement this and we can guage the interest.

Oh, wanted to mention - despite PHPMyAdmin being worked on rn; if anyone has an interest in connecting a remote SQL client app (like Sequel Pro) to Cloudron apps on an app-per-app basis. Here are instructions to do so here: https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/3237/remote-sql-support-on-a-per-app-basis In my experience this is a much better, faster way to work with databases than PHPMyAdmin could ever dream to be.

Maybe we could at least introduce an optimization of the databases from time to time. The size of the referenced "ttrss_entries" table went from an insane 1,238 MB (!) to 583 MB after optimization. The following command, maybe via a button, should to the trick: mysqlcheck -Aos --user=${MYSQL_USERNAME} --password=${MYSQL_PASSWORD} --host=${MYSQL_HOST};

@necrevistonnezr Still evaluating what is the best option to update existing installations. Most likely we won't do dist-upgrade automatically. Also, new installations will default to 18.04.

This would go well with a secondary backup facility for all things Cloudron doesn't currently back up, which is valuable, such as Volumes. Add a few protocols for this such as FTPS, SFTP, RCLONE, RSYNC, etc..
