Solved "Cloudron in the wild" page when moving cloudron to a new machine
-
I am restoring to a new machine (swapping the boot drive, and restoring back into the new boot drive on the same computer. For a moment I noticed that the dashboard came up once I initiated the restore. After a moment, however, I get this cloudron in the wild page. Any theories @staff?
-
@atridad Does it show the dashboard after some time or is it stuck with showing the "wild" page forever? What do you see in
/home/yellowtent/platformdata/logs/box.log? -
@girish I think I must have interrupted the restore. Re-installing Ubuntu server and trying again. I'll post here with any new developments.
-
Ok re-starting the restore process. Lets see how this goes.

All good now. Sorry to bug you @girish

@girish Actually I do have one question. I had a drive that acted as a storage location for volumes. Do drives get wiped in this process? Because I cant seem to find the files that I swear were on this hard drive now after mounting it.
For reference this is all on the same machine. All that changed was the boot SSD.
-
@atridad The volumes are not wiped, no (there is no code for such a thing even). It could be something wrong with the mounting order. Are you seeing no files on the hard disk itself (as in, you ssh into the server and see no files via the terminal) or is this the file manager showing no files? If it's the latter, it could very well be some docker + mounting race issue (seen a lot of these, which is why added volume mounts).
-
@girish its not showing anything via terminal. Like what I did was mount my drive to /mnt/hdd and then list the files and directories in there.
-
@girish HAH nevermind. Its me being a Linux noob...
turns out I mounted the drive itself not the partition. The files are there.
