Hi.

This release is continuing to experience the aforementioned issues.

As per the upstream-maintainer, it is recommended to try an upgrade to the underlying s3 related packages.

Ref: https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/6149#issuecomment-1876710960

But when i try to run the provided command in the app Terminal:
yarn upgrade --latest @aws-sdk/client-s3 @aws-sdk/lib-storage @aws-sdk/s3-request-presigner @smithy/node-http-handler

i receive the following errors:

How do i go about this now?

PS: Without resolving this issue, the PeerTube v6.0.2 version in Cloudron is practically broken/useless.

Since those npm packages are part of the app code as dependencies, this wont work on Cloudron as those are in the read-only portion of the filesystem by design. I guess for that we have to wait for upstream to update the dependencies with a release. Blindly updating libraries an app is using can have all kinds of side-effects.

@shrey I think upstream dev is asking you to test a code change. If you want to try this on Cloudron:

• Put the app in recovery mode (in the repair section of app)
• Now , you can open a web terminal and then run the command that the author wanted
• After this, start the app with /app/pkg/start.sh .

Note that changes will be lost when you remove the recovery mode. Also, see https://docs.cloudron.io/troubleshooting/#unresponsive-app

I think since I suspect this might take a bit to fix is to roll back the app to previous release and play around with a clone of the app instead.

@girish
Thanks for this tip!

@shrey great work figuring the root cause! I have published a new package now that highlights the breaking changes in 6.0 .

For others reading, the main issue was that some of the configuration keys have changed in peertube 6. See https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/blob/develop/CHANGELOG.md#v600 for more information. For example, if you use object storage to store videos, the storage paths have changed.
