Solved Installation failed on cloudron version 7.2.0 (needed for restoring backup)

[devtron]

Have some issue to install cloudron 7.2.0 . I need to install this version because I want to restore from a backup file. Here a screenshot:

I tried to install the cloudron-setup on a fresh ubuntu install but it can not finish the setup:

root@v2202201165252174663:~# ./cloudron-setup --version 7.2.0

##############################################
         Cloudron Setup (7.2.0)
##############################################

 Follow setup logs in a second terminal with:
 $ tail -f /var/log/cloudron-setup.log

=> Updating apt and installing script dependencies
=> Checking version
=> Downloading Cloudron version 7.2.0 ...
=> Installing base dependencies and downloading docker images (this takes some time) ...Init script failed. See /var/log/cloudron-setup.log for details

Please I need my backups back!
Thanks.

This the issue? How to solve?

E: Package 'collectd' has no installation candidate
E: Unable to locate package collectd-utils
Failed to install collectd. Presumably because of http://mailman.verplant.org/pipermail/collectd/2015-March/006491.html
sed: can't read /etc/collectd/collectd.conf: No such file or directory

@devtron I am guessing this is Ubuntu 22.04, right? this issue is fixed in 7.2.1. Upstream ubuntu removed collectd - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/collectd/+bug/1971093 . We worked around this by install from deb.

For your immediate problem, since you need 7.2.0 to restore from backup, can you run the install script on a fresh Ubuntu 20.04 instead ? That should work.

After reinstalling Ubuntu 20.04 and Cloudron 7.2.0 I get this error:

[girish]

@devtron Ah, I didn't realize you are on 7.2 (thought this was 7.3). This was fixed long time ago: https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/dashboard/-/commit/ade159eb749d6a066302cd0cda031dc7188ba630

You can manually change the file /home/yellowtent/box/dashboard/dist/js/restore.js on the server. If it's complicated for you to change that file, please drop us a mail on support@cloudron.io (just grep for the string "Client.prototype.restore=" )

@devtron did you manage to restore your Cloudron in the end?

[devtron]

@nebulon Yeah I did. Forgot to mention it here. Thank you @girish !!
