<![CDATA[Enabling Grist Enterprise does not work]]>Hi,

I have a problem with enabling Grist Enterprise.
When I toggle on this feature at [domain]/o/docs/admin I get the following error:

Unexpected error
12:48:00 EROFS: read-only file system, open '/app/code/config.json'

see screenshot

This allows to enable the enterprise edition mode. One thing to note is, that the env.sh file needs the line with GRIST_DEFAULT_EMAIL to be enabled and set to the users's email address. Otherwise the admin UI will not grant the user access.

We have to debug this further.

Because this update https://forum.cloudron.io/post/119223 was supposed to fix that, I thought.

Thanks for reporting this issue.
There is an alternative way of enabling grist enterprise, see: https://support.getgrist.com/self-managed/#how-do-i-enable-grist-enterprise
You can try to edit your /app/data/env.sh file and add:

export GRIST_ACTIVATION=<activation-key-goes-here>

save the file and restart the app.

Can you please try this method and report if this solves the issue?
