Thank you, @joseph ! Great! But how were you able to restart Redis? When I tried, I could only put it in recovery mode. I had renamed the file from dump.rdb to dump.rdb.corrupt and then tried restarting Redis, but it didn’t work. I must have missed a step. Thanks again!"

@joseph i tried to copy the dump.rdb file from /home/yellowtent/platformdata/redis/<app_id> in /home/yellowtent/appsdata/<app_id> (app was stopped) and it doesn't work... I tried to put the app in recovery mode but it fails too with many message like this : box:services Attempt 6 failed. Will retry: Error waiting for redis-<ID>. Status code: 200 message: process not running

@joseph The app was working fine until the disk got full. I haven't attempted any restore yet. I only replaced the correct config.php, and all of the app’s files are still there. I do have a dump.rdb file in /home/yellowtent/appsdata/<app_id> that seems corrupted (0 bytes). The one in /home/yellowtent/platformdata/redis/<app_id> is over 30MB, but I'm not sure if it's the same file. I have a backup of the /home/yellowtent/appsdata/<app_id> version from Minio.

Hello @joseph , I'd like to clarify that I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 with Cloudron 8.2.4. I don't have the option to disable Redis from the 'Services' menu link on the app. Only Turn.

Hello, after a disk full situation, one of my Nextcloud apps no longer starts. I’ve identified two issues: first, the config.php file was corrupted, so I replaced it with a good version from a backup. Secondly, the dump.rdb file is 0KB, and Redis won’t start for this particular app. All the other apps are running fine. There are currently 20 GB free on the disk. How can we get a Nextcloud instance running again if Redis has stopped working? What steps can we take, other than reinstalling everything? I should note that I’ve already tried recovery mode, as well as restarting Cloudron and the server, etc.

Thanks for your help!

Hi all,

I believe I've found a solution that works. With this setup, my logged-in users can create pads, and guests can edit them as long as read-only mode is not enabled by the pad owner. Guests, however, cannot create pads.

{
 "ep_guest": {
    "username": "guest"
  }, 
  "users": {
    "user1": {
      "is_admin": true
    },
    "guest": {
      "displayname": "Guest",
      "displaynameChangeable": false,
      "readOnly": false,
      "canCreate": false
    }
  }
}

@nebulon it works ! The "or createing a new pad works" part in the documentation was important

Thanks for your lights !

@nebulon I just retried, but it failed. I tried logging out of Cloudron after restarting Etherpad, and it still failed.

@nebulon i have tried on 2 Cloudron here but it failed, with different users and new users...

I have an error when i stop the app but the app can restart

Hi,

I can't seem to log in as an admin on Etherpad, whether it's a fresh installation or an updated one. Can you confirm if you're experiencing the same issue on your end?

My setup : Cloudron v8.2.3 (Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS)

@nebulon do you have an idea about this problem with ep_guest bug ? Thanks !

@nebulon When I deploy this plugin from the Etherpad admin interface on Cloudron, it crashes. Here are the logs :

Poke @girish @nebulon Whenever you have a solution, I would be very interested as I’ve been asked about it several times. Thank you!

I'm looking for a solution to share editable pads with guests without requiring them to log in, and I came across ep_mypads https://www.npmjs.com/package/ep_mypads, but it doesn't work on Cloudron. As of today, Etherpad is unusable in shared pad mode on Cloudron, as shown in this thread. On Framapad, it works using the MyPads plugin. Do you think it would be possible to make Cloudron compatible with this plugin? Is there another solution? Thanks for your help!

@nebulon how about the transfer speed? Do you also notice higher CPU or RAM usage? For a large volume of data in Nextcloud, do you think it's better than Object Storage? Thanks!

EDIT : i found this post https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/12340/cloudron-8-released/7?_=1727429391377 and it seems to be faster after the first backup with rsync, great news !

Hello, I want to set up my backups with Hetzner storage box and I would like your opinion on the best protocol to use for large volumes of data and to know if you recommend this solution, and if you are satisfied with it. For example, I have about ten apps, including a Nextcloud instance with 500 GB of data. My Cloudron backups are secondary backups, as I also take snapshots of my VMs using Proxmox Backup. Ideally, I would like to use rsync to make the best use of my storage space.

Thank you for your feedback.

Hello, we are experiencing issues since the last Collabora update. We can no longer access Collabora from Nextcloud without having changed the configuration. I have tested on several Cloudron instances with different versions of Ubuntu and observed the same issue.

The 1.8.0 Collabora version seems to work with Nextcloud. Problem with 1.8.1.

I think it might be related to the Collabora package. Can you confirm?

Thank you!

Hi @girish I missed the cloudron button, it works from button now. once connected from this button you will have to do this each time you connect? the wordpress form only works with local accounts?

I just tested with a local account, and it works. However, the old LDAP plugin in WordPress was indeed removed in the latest app version and replaced by the Cloudron SSO plugin. There is a bug in the authentication method change. For now, I will stick with the previous version while waiting for a fix.

Hi,
We have an issue with WordPress 3.7.0: for WordPress sites using LDAP connections, it is impossible to log in since the last update. Reverting to the previous version resolves the issue. I see that LDAP has been removed from this version... How should we proceed?

Thanks for your help

Ben

EDIT : I tested on a Cloudron 8.04 from Ubuntu 20.04 and Ubuntu 24.04, and I encounter the same problem during the WordPress update and it's impossible to log in.
