    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 ?

      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 ?

      @peterle I can assist getting it to work on the new LAMP app if you need - I've got it working before (don't actively use it though)

      what issues did you have?

              @DanTheMan Remove all the contents of the /app/data/public folder and unzip friendica in there.

              this can be done via cli or via sftp.

                  @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 infoπŸ˜‡πŸ˜‡

                      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 you’re 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.
