For LXC, can that be ran simultaneously on a cloudron server?
well in theory I guess it could as LXC containers are separate from what else is going on in the VPS
But I have a personal rule not to touch the Cloudron server other than through the Cloudron dashboard and the Cloudron CLI for custom apps. I don't log in to the VPS and don't do any maintenance on it. I just leave it all to Cloudron.
I use another VPS from SSDNODES for 'experiments' and 'self-self-hosted' apps.

sorry to revive this conversation, @privsec and @timconsidine, but how powerful of a server do you need?
-
@subtlecourage I don't think the project states minimum requirements.
it's not a doing a lot, just a small mongodb and some api polling
so I would guess a modest one
nor more than 8gb ram and probably 4gb ram would be enough
although that depends on what else is running on that VPS (remembering this app is in a container) -
@timconsidine thanks for the fast reply.
Ok! Not a beefy one. I’m considering setting up these up for customers on an individual basis, and it seems a simple low tier server would be all that’s needed to run these.
Probably a server with 20gb ram for multi number/family use cases would be appropriate.
-
@subtlecourage that’s a neat idea, how would you offer support for that?

@subtlecourage here is the htop from the container

@timconsidine There is an SMS module in Odoo / Flectra, which might have some functionality you need. Odoo and Flectra are in the wishlist:

@loudlemur thanks, but I don't need oodo / flectra

WOW!! I think @subtlecourage has the right idea here about offering this as a potential service.
The load on this machine is minuscule.
So question, the RAM usage, it appears to be megabytes, does that correlate with the size of the DB?
Or will it pretty much stay below 250mbs?
Because based off of that, you really don't need even a modest machine. It looks like you could run this on a potato.

I am running into an issue with issue a cert from certbot.
First, I have never manually issued a cert from certbot before nor have I have nginx before.
So this is all a learning curve.

Ok, so, another problem
Within the LXC container, I cant resolve to any external providers.
And not surprisingly, installing everything outside the container does nothing.
But to be clear, within the container, nothing works or install able, outside of the LXC container, it all works.

No worries!
Sadly, no.
I finally have
in my terminal via the LXC, but in my browser, all I am getting is
