Try install OpnForm

[riamehdi]

I try to install https://github.com/JhumanJ/OpnForm on LAMP app.
Impossible to set PHP 8.2 always stay at PHP 8.1. I reboot not happen.
The doc : https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/lamp/#supported-php-versions not work.

I tray also install npm modules. Get error NPM not found in user www-data !
The doc : https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/lamp/#composer also not work.

How fix these two issues ?

PHP version change works on the demo server.

Do you have an older version of Cloudron?

How are you checking if PHP version is incorrect ?

I reboot and stop and restart, it has no effect.

that does appear to be the wrong symlink in the CLI, however, the PHP apps from the web side seem to use the right version. https://lamp.demo.cloudron.io/

@riamehdi the PHP CLI version is mentioned as a note in the doc page you linked. You have to use the php8.2 binary instead. If you use apache and phpinfo() it should says 8.2 as well. This is an unfortunate side effect of our packaging system (it's hard to fix up symlinks at run time on a readonly filesystem)

[riamehdi]

You're right @girish
I do have: PHP 8.2.11 displayed on Laravel base page.

I used this Composer command via PHP 8.2 :

php8.2 /usr/bin/composer install

If it helps others.

Néanmois, pour la partie NPM, je suis bloqué.

Comment installer avec l'utilisateur root ou www-data ?
Avec l'utilisateur www-data, j'ai cette erreur :

@riamehdi try changing the default cache location, like npm install --cache /tmp/cache .

(This should already work by default but looks like something went wrong, I am investigating)

[girish]

Indeed, there was a bug in the base image that /root/.npm is not symlinked properly. This is fixed now but a new base image will be released only in 6 months or so. For the moment, just use the above workaround.

[riamehdi]

the workaround does work.
Thank you

Sorry to change topics, but this looks like a great app that would fill a gap in Cloudron's offering. Before I put it in the App Wishlist, what do you think of it? Does the AI feature work when self-hosting? I tried it on their site and it was pretty impressive.

[riamehdi]

Salut @Dave-Swift, yes, AI works well in self-hosting via a LAMP server. All you need is an OpenAI API key. It's really impressive!
I haven't been able to secure the application with a simple environment variable to block registrations. Any ideas?
For now simple action :

// Route::post('register', [RegisterController::class, 'register']);

from routes/api.php

Agree, please do go ahead and add it
