How to Setup LinkStack on Cloudron

chown -R www-data:www-data .

Thank you for the quick response. Nevertheless - no progress here, files seem to be at the right spot and with proper rights:

[LoudLemur]

@rstockm Have you tried using the cli to extract the files from the zip directly into the root, instead of into a folder as usually happens? If you restart from there, you might have more success.

[rstockm]

I'm confused. I
a) followed your instructions step-by-step using copy&paste (except the URL, of course)
b) postet a screenshot which shows all files are in the right place, and have the correct owner

so either

1. the vanilla Cloudron LDAP app behaves differently on different accounts (why should it, though?)
2. there is an error in your manual
3. ... I am missing something else?

[LoudLemur]

An error in the tutorial is the most likely explanation, I think. I will try and think back to what we were doing and see if we remember something else. Restarting from scratch might be the best idea, though you have probably tried that several times already. Maybe the browser has a cache of the page or something like that...

@rstockm I did the same as you and having the same issue also.

I guess @LoudLemur there is an issue in the tutorial.

@rstockm did you suceed ?

I've been running with this setup for nearly 2 years, I have made the following changes to the config to use Cloudron provided services.

Database (MySQL):

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=${CLOUDRON_MYSQL_HOST}
DB_DATABASE=${CLOUDRON_MYSQL_DATABASE}
DB_USERNAME=${CLOUDRON_MYSQL_USERNAME}
DB_PASSWORD=${CLOUDRON_MYSQL_PASSWORD}

I can't remember whether I entered those environment variables into the install page on first time use or whether I had to put in the credentials directly then change them when I had finished installation.

Email:

MAIL_MAILER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=${CLOUDRON_MAIL_SMTP_SERVER}
MAIL_PORT=${CLOUDRON_MAIL_SMTP_PORT}
MAIL_USERNAME=${CLOUDRON_MAIL_SMTP_USERNAME}
MAIL_PASSWORD=${CLOUDRON_MAIL_SMTP_PASSWORD}
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS=${CLOUDRON_MAIL_FROM}
MAIL_FROM_NAME="${APP_NAME}"

Redis (https://blog.linkstack.org/redis-linkstack/

REDIS_HOST=${CLOUDRON_REDIS_HOST}
REDIS_PASSWORD=${CLOUDRON_REDIS_PASSWORD}
REDIS_PORT=${CLOUDRON_REDIS_PORT}
CACHE_DRIVER=redis
SESSION_DRIVER=redis

Hope this helps.
Andrew.

Ok I did it and it works. @rstockm FYI, here is how I did it :

1. Install LAMP and open the terminal

2. Cd to the web root directory

cd /app/data/public

3. Download the Latest LinkStack Release

LATEST_URL=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/LinkStackOrg/LinkStack/releases/latest \
  | grep "browser_download_url" \
  | grep "linkstack.zip" \
  | cut -d '"' -f 4)

wget -O linkstack.zip "$LATEST_URL"
unzip -o linkstack.zip
rm linkstack.zip

4. Remove Cloudron’s LAMP Default index.php

rm index.php

5. Fix folder structure
   LinkStack is extracted inside a folder named linkstack/.
   Move everything to the real web root:

mv linkstack/* ./
mv linkstack/.* ./ 2>/dev/null || true
rmdir linkstack

6. Fix permissions

chown -R www-data:www-data /app/data/public

7. Restart the app in Cloudron
8. Open the URL and follow the LinkStack setup installation guide.

Step by step instructions from @gengar worked like a charm!

I just tried them too - so easy! Can literally copy paste it all as is and then it's done! @gengar
