    @msbt Your version works great so far. Do you plan to add the Riot client as well? I’m happy with just the server part but I believe I read somewhere that Cloudron Web Store apps are required a proper front-end to be published.

    hey @yusf, glad to hear that, although I should be updating more often, there has been quite a few updates since I packed it. They say it's not good security-wise to put the client in the same place as the server, that's why I actually removed it from the initial setup that I forked. But I just updated the riot-app itself, you can check it out here: https://git.cloudron.io/msbt/riot-app

    It will try to use $APP_DOMAIN as a host, which is exactly what you're not supposed to do (and won't work with the cloudron setup), so you need to edit the config file after the installation.

    Sorry for eons time until replying. You’re right, I’ve heard about that vulnerability myself now that I think on it.

    Have you considered adding mxisd? The project seem to add complete LDAP support without too much hassle which would make the package an ideal Cloudron app. https://github.com/kamax-matrix/mxisd/blob/master/docs/stores/ldap.md

    I think I did check it out at some point, but the package as it is now already supports ldap login. I also wanted to add an identity server, but ran out of time to test it back when I built it.

    already supports ldap login

    Oh, that's great! I'm trying to install the latest app version with cloudron build and cloudron install but now I get:

    ERROR No image found, please run `cloudron build` first or specify a `dockerImage` in the CloudronManifest [ /usr/local/lib/node_modules/cloudron/src/helper.js:68:29 ]

    Looks like cloudron build was not run. Can you also make sure you are using the latest cloudron CLI? cloudron --version will say 1.7.0.

    @girish But I did run build successfully:

    Build succeeded
Success

    Version is 1.7.0, yes.

    Can you try deleting ~/.cloudron.json and try again? There was a format change about 2-3 months ago and maybe the json file is in the old format/corrupt.

    @msbt Care to update the Riot package?

    hey @yusf, sure thing, will check it out tomorrow. I haven't used it in a while because I changed to the electron desktop client, but I'll see if it's an easy update and let you know.

    ok this was a quick fix, had a few minutes to do it, here you go:
    https://git.cloudron.io/msbt/riot-app
    please compare your config to the example one, not that you miss anything, but I think it's good to go like that.

    Thanks! There are some bugs with the package however. Users have to login twice to get inside.

    Also, the Security & Privacy section won't open at all. 🤔

    I've carefully compared my riot_config.json with the new one and adjusted accordingly (almost no diff).

    which version of matrix are you using?

    @yusf I can't confirm that. I deployed it, replaced all occurences of the riot domain to the matrix/synapse one and it works right out of the box (using username to login). Are you on the latest matrix build? Might push another update in a bit as they released 0.99.2rc1 earlier today, this means the 0.99.2 should be out soon.

    @msbt Dang, I forgot to push an update of matrix, sorry. After I did, things started working more proper.

    Security & Privacy section of room settings still won't open but I’ve pinned that issue down to a specific room, the premade ”discuss” room, so let’s put that blame on Riot.

    Thank you for your help and advice. Is matrix/riot coming to the app store some day?

    that I don't know, it would require a lot more testing since I've just forked and updated someone else's repo for my own needs. 0.99.2 is out, maybe I'll do a rebuild when 1.0 is ready and add all features that are required/available.

    I'd be interested in an integrations server app for Cloudron, built on dimension.

    @msbt Would you bump the version please? v1.0.5 is the latest release.
