<![CDATA[How to SFTP to Roundcube?]]>I'm trying to change the new mail notifier sound. In the file manager, I can see the plugin that I'm trying to edit but it's a symlink and if I try to download it, it opens as a source page looking thing. How can I get to the app folder?

The app terminal was in a "reconnecting" loop but the command worked when I used DO's console.

Edit 2: It keeps going downhill today. Uninstall error:
FileSystem Error: Error removing dir /home/yellowtent/appsdata/ad3d3e27-12d8-42b9-956a-dd33a76929e9 : ENOTEMPTY: directory not empty, rmdir '/home/yellowtent/appsdata/ad3d3e27-12d8-42b9-956a-dd33a76929e9'

That is a cloudron bug which we are trying to fix (still haven't found the root cause). You can just rm -rf /home/yellowtent/appsdata/ad3d3e27-12d8-42b9-956a-dd33a76929e9 and then retry the uninstall .

I'm getting "x and x are the same file".

cp -a /app/code/plugins.orig/. /app/data/plugins

The question is how the hell do I get rid of the symlink stuff?

BTW, I managed to download a copy of the plugin I want to replace and just uploaded it into the data/plugins folder and the overwriting worked but the changes aren't taking effect. I guess that's why I have to overwrite the entire folder as @girish instructed. I'm gonna try doing that now via the file manager. 🤞

Edit: RC just crashed and burned. Reinstalling.

cp -a /app/code/plugins.orig/. /app/code/plugins

Do I have to delete the symlink ones in the plugin folder first? Nevermind, can't delete them.

Just realized my mistake.. copying into the wrong folder 🤦

That didn't work. To be continued tomorrow. 😩

I need to look it up. If I copy the entire plugin directory, then I have to make sure I update those manually later on, right?

If you do want to change them, then make a copy of the entire plugin directory and copy it to /app/data/plugins and modify the file and also enable the new plugin in the roundcube config.

See https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/roundcube/#plugins
