@james said in Is this pip install persistent for app updates?: Hello @imc67 You can use venv or uv to create virtual environments. Here is a quick cheatsheet for venv => https://aaronlelevier.github.io/virtualenv-cheatsheet/ Many prefer uv these days, see => https://github.com/astral-sh/uv thanks again! I used venv and it works very well!

Thanks, it works!

The things we learn going through the support requests!

I am back after a small test. @timconsidine Yes it is a large number of small files. After checking with different formats. Only started to work as it should with ".tar" format. It works like lightning with a new folder or in the current folder where the application is located. With this format, the extraction takes in a second and is ready. And I use a server from Hetzner - CX41 (Intel, 160GB Disk and 16GB RAM). EDIT: I would still add that I had resources allocated during the test: 4GB ram and 75% CPU. I still checked with the standard one, i.e. 256MB ram and 50% CPU - with ".tar" format it extracts just as fast.

@girish That works great! Many many thanks for you prompt support!

@girish thanks, I usually fire up a fresh one and use duplicator to migrate it to the live domain

@ritesh What PHP version are you looking for? Usually, we make a new version of the LAMP stack as new versions come out. I guess maybe it's time for PHP 8 (if that's what you are looking for).

@msbt the old LAMP app will be left as-is. So, no change to that in the foreseeable future.

apt install -y cron apache2-dev php7.4 php7.4-{bcmath,bz2,cgi,cli,common,curl,dba,dev,enchant,fpm,gd,gmp,imap,interbase,intl,json,ldap,mbstring,mysql,odbc,opcache,pgsql,phpdbg,pspell,readline,soap,sqlite3,sybase,tidy,xml,xmlrpc,xsl,zip} libapache2-mod-php7.4 php-{apcu,date,geoip,gettext,imagick,gnupg,mailparse,pear,redis,twig,uuid,validate,zmq} ghostscript libgs-dev ffmpeg && \ is what we install. exiftool is there in the base image.

@saikarthik said in IMAP port and server settings for LAMP app mail client: What I blurred out in the picture is actually a valid cloudron mailbox ID. Yes, but it seems there is some extra text before it like Test User: "Test User". Can you remove that and try?

hi @girish . great info, thanks. I will try it out.

@girish you're a genius man! I think it should work, I'll try it and come back. Thanks!!

@girish Thanks! I was hoping to get an official feature going - but thanks, I'll check the link out!

@Nicolas One way to avoid this mistake is use getenv('CLOUDRON_MYSQL_USERNAME'), getenv('CLOUDRON_MYSQL_DATABASE') instead of the raw values. This way when you migrate next time, it will pick up the correct database connection values. The full env list for MySQL is at https://cloudron.io/documentation/custom-apps/addons/#mysql

@girish Thanks for your prompt reply. Ok I will try to contact them to inquire about this. Will keep you guys updated. Best wishes !

I put a package at https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/php7.3-postgres-app/ . This is a PHP 7.3 app that has postgres.

@Trankery Yup, I will mark this as a feature request for a future release.

@girish & @jdelon02 I believe LAMP app supports cron, in that case use the following script to auto-pull from a git repo whenever an update is pushed to that repo: Put in /app/data/updateGit #!/bin/sh ## CD to the path where the app is installed. cd /app/data/public UPSTREAM=${1:-'@{u}'} LOCAL=$(git rev-parse @) REMOTE=$(git rev-parse "$UPSTREAM") BASE=$(git merge-base @ "$UPSTREAM") if [ $LOCAL = $REMOTE ]; then echo "Up-to-date" elif [ $LOCAL = $BASE ]; then echo "Need to pull" git pull elif [ $REMOTE = $BASE ]; then echo "Need to push? Some files changed / commited here, this should not have happened." else echo "Diverged?? Help!" fi Then in /app/data/crontab: */5 * * * * bash /app/data/updateGit 2>&1 ## Or if you wanna avoid filling logs: */5 * * * * bash /app/data/updateGit 2>&1 > /dev/null This will check if a pull is needed from a repo every 5 minutes. (Re: https://crontab.guru/every-5-minutes) You can also modify the bash script to rebuild, npm install, composer install, etc when needed too.
