@potemkin_ai looks like you can set
GENERIC_TIMEZONEas suggested by https://docs.n8n.io/getting-started/installation/docker-quickstart.html#setting-timezone . On Cloudron, you can edit/app/data/envusing the file manager and restart the app. -
@girish thank you!
Is there a way for Cloudron to pick up for that purpose a Time Zone that I'm configuring at the settings page?
-
@potemkin_ai Currently, no, but I think that's a good idea worth investigating!
@girish thanks, yes, that would be very nice, if n8n container's time zone (and probably other services) would be regulated that way.
As for the logs - I realized that we might speak about different kind of logs here - n8n stores execution logs, that might fill up the disk very quickly: https://community.n8n.io/t/hard-disk-full-where-to-delete-logs/2298
Here are the environment variables that seems like of the most importance at n8n:
GENERIC_TIMEZONE= WEBHOOK_TUNNEL_URL=https://FQDN/ #this one, to make sure webhook URL will work fine N8N_ENCRYPTION_KEY=.. #to avoid loosing credentials on docker restart #clear execution logs EXECUTIONS_DATA_PRUNE=true EXECUTIONS_DATA_MAX_AGE=672 -

@potemkin_ai ah, i see. Do you think the defaults you have provided are reasonable? If so, I can put them as part of the default install.
@girish absolutely!
It makes n8n to perform in right timezone, have proper webhook URL, keep credentials (not loosing then during the docker rebuild), avoid disk overflow from the executions log.

@girish lovely, thank you!

@potemkin_ai I’m struggling to get the time zone set up. Do you have any suggestions as to what I did wrong? These are my env settings:
Set the logging level to 'debug' export EXECUTIONS_DATA_SAVE_MANUAL_EXECUTIONS=true export EXECUTIONS_DATA_SAVE_ON_ERROR=all export EXECUTIONS_DATA_SAVE_ON_SUCCESS=all export N8N_LOG_LEVEL=info GENERIC_TIMEZONE='Europe/Berlin' TZ='Europe/Berlin' WEBHOOK_TUNNEL_URL=https://top.level.domain/ N8N_ENCRYPTION_KEY='redacted' EXECUTIONS_DATA_PRUNE=true EXECUTIONS_DATA_MAX_AGE=672 -

@andreasdueren you have to add
exportin front of each line -
@girish duh that’s probably why
-
@andreasdueren I'm glad I found this post. At least you had the = in there. Stupid me typed it in like this: GENERIC_TIMEZONE America/Chicago and was wondering why the app crashed
