<![CDATA[mtu]]>Hello everyone.

root@cv4181645:~# ip a | grep -e "ens3" -e "docker0"
2: ens3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1450 qdisc fq_codel state UP group default qlen 1000

How do I change the mtu in cloudron to 1450?

  • Install docker
  • Create a network - docker network create --subnet=172.18.0.0/16 --ip-range=172.18.0.0/20 --gateway 172.18.0.1 cloudron --ipv6 --subnet=fd00:c107:d509::/64
  • docker run --network cloudron -ti cloudron/base:4.2.0 /bin/bash . You can try network access in this container

You can try cloudron-support --recreate-containers. This will delete all the docker stuff and recreate containers from scratch again. Maybe that helps. If that doesn't work either, you can go another level and try cloudron-support --recreate-docker . This recreates the bridge as well.

"Your environment uses VLAN technology to create virtual networks. VXLAN reserves 50 bytes of headers for its own needs, which limits the maximum data transfer size in Ethernet packets to 1,500 bytes. For this reason, if you use the MTU 1500, the actual payload size will be reduced by 50 bytes, leaving 1,450 bytes for data transmission.

Unfortunately, therefore, the MTU on the interfaces in your configuration should be set to 1450 to avoid data transmission problems. An attempt to set the MTU above this on the ens3 interface will result in errors, since the networks in OpenStack are limited within these values."
I took another VPS from them, only from the old archive tariff. There is an mtu value of 1500.
I don't think this is a problem for the VPS provider.

The problem is really in the mtu - there must be the same values. I decided radically for myself - I took another VPS. Thanks for the answers, the topic can be closed. I hope no one else will face such a problem.

Did this issue come up suddenly or is it a fresh installation and the issue was there from the beginning?

Did you customize any of the networking setup after or during Ubuntu installation? I think chasing MTU sizes on interfaces is not the right approach to get a solid fix here, but this may be just a symptom of other things on the system which are not setup as default and might cause further issues down the line.

But it wasn't enough. It is also necessary to bring the MTU value on all veth, br and docker0 network interfaces to mtu 1450.
Is it possible to do this? If possible, please tell me how.567.PNG 789.PNG 901.PNG

Reading up a bit on this topic, https://www.civo.com/learn/fixing-networking-for-docker says that the MTU must match. You can add the --mtu 1450 in /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/cloudron.conf . Do systemctl daemon-reload and then systemctl restart docker. If this works, copy cloudron.conf to a custom.conf since cloudron.conf is maintained by the platform and changes might get lost.

You can only delete the nextcloud.log file. And what does the log file and Nextcloud itself have to do with it? My Nextcloud app store is not working. Is it that hard to change the mtu value to 1450?Screenshot_20241013_093338.png

The DNS resolution seems correct. Does ping and curl to say www.nextcloud.com work from the server?

If it fails, try host www.nextcloud.com . Please paste those errors.

But in general, Cloudron is just running on Ubuntu. If you use netplan for your interface, you can set it there. https://hoppsjots.org/mtu.html for example
