Friendica - A Decentralized Social Network
-
Would be sooooo good to have frindica as a supported app for cloudron !
Two friends tied to make it work on cloudron and not getting it work with LAMP....
Please, make it a cloudron App !
It is so important to have the option of an easy to install decentrelized social network ....and is so much needed in our current situation !
Who can help to make it work ?
-
There are so many people ready to leave facebook...and friendica would be an easy to install alternative, if there would be a docker for cloudron...
someone started a while ago...
https://github.com/M-arcus/friendica-docker-image -
I just found this:
https://friendi.ca/2020/01/11/friendica-now-has-an-official-docker-image/
perhaps its now much easier to build a docker for cloudron and make friendica a cloudron app ? -
Did anyone get this to work?
-
@YurkshireLad It works great in the lamp app!
-
@DanTheMan I forget the exact steps, but Friendica requires a 5-min cron job to run, this can be done in lamp by adding the cron string to a file in /app/data (I think just crontab?? I can't find info on it anymore but I know the feature was there a while back)

Thanks guys for all the great support and info
I have tried to make it happen. But after uploading the extracted (full friendica zip) content to the lamp stacks public folder, i only see a php page on the subdomain I have created with the lamp stack?
I have followed up this guide..
https://friendi.ca/resources/installation/
There's a section there in the guide that says: "Additionally, rename .htaccess-dist to .htaccess if youβre using the Apache web server."
I did change that file before uploading to the stacks public folder.I must say that i have been successful last week, by installing a lamp stack with Prestashop on it. It's been running smoothly since then.
The silly thing is i am doing the same thing here with Friendica as i did with Prestashop last week. Unzip, extract and upload to the public folder of the Lamp stack. From there it was just a web based setup. -
Is here any update? I think cloudron could be an amazing tool to bring more people into the fediverse apps.
