Cloudron Forum

Many thanks, all. I missed that bit of the documentation.

I'll definitely backup; I'm running on bare hardware, and didn't even do myself the courtesy of running Cloudron in a VM. I may... use this as an opportunity to change that.

Either way, this is all I needed. Thank you!

I've been using Cloudron Mail for a long time with 3 different providers (Linode, OnetSolutions and Hostinger). I never had an issue on sending and receiving e-mails.

What bugs me a lot is the search. It doesn't work well even with full-text search enabled...

Another issue is the lack of good webmail software to use with Cloudron Mail server. Any other mail provider (Gmail, Proton etc) have a much better UX than what is available on Cloudron. I used for some time SOGo but now I use Nextcloud Mail and Snappymail's Nextcloud app as a fallback. From now and then I ask Mozilla to develop a Thunderbird Web 🙂

OK.

This was very exciting.

I read some documentation. Specifically, https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/nat_reflection.html.

Once I slowed down, undid all the weird thrashing I did with various DNS shortcuts for route domains internally/directly (e.g. changing my unbound config, or creating aliases for my domain), and instead read the documentation for both reflection and hairpin NAT in OpnSense, I was good to go.

Thank you for joining me on this journey where I create noise on the forum and discover that, by reading the manual, I can solve my own problems. 🙂

that's how i roll it

@girish :dance-party:

Thank you.

The curl is supposed to work from an app shell/terminal. It's not working most likely because your network/router does not support hairpin routing.

To debug, I would first SSH into the server and check if curl -vvv -4 https://my.cloudron.example/ works i.e forget about docker etc.

A new not-what-I-was-looking-for-but-it-works-solution:

I'm mirroring the Dockerfile/project from my local Gitea to Gitlab. I've set up Gitlab as my registry for the project.

(The project in this case is a Grocy package for Cloudron.)

This arguably gives me a private-enough repo for what I'm exploring, but I was hoping to be able to entirely leverage my Cloudron for this.

I'm just plain confused why, at some point in the past, my locally-hosted registry worked, and now, it does not. This is why I believe there is "crufty" config laying around, somewhere, and things therefore don't work.

(But... this makes almost no sense, because I have uninstalled and reinstalled the registry, so it is not clear how any state could persist.)

Anyway. This remains a mystery, and I would need some explicit guidance as to where I should dig around in the backend of Cloudron to figure out why things are not behaving. (It could also be that there's still some port that I don't have open, or... 🤷)

Another, safer, way, would be to use the alternative paths. In my case, that would be /dev/serial/by-id/usb-1a86_USB2.0-Serial-if00-port0 or /dev/serial/by-path/platform-3f980000.usb-usb-0:1.5:1.0-port0

@nebulon Many thanks, @nebulon and @girish . The concern wasn't so much that I could not figure out what the status of my certs were external to Cloudron, but more that it would be nice if the area of the dashboard regarding certs would, as a matter of course, just say "You have 47 days remaining, and Cloudron should automatically update your certs in 17 days."

And, if I do mash the button to manually run a cert update, it would be nice to get a response in the dash that says "Success! New certs will expire in 90 days!" (Or, whatever it would say.)

I was mostly surprised that I got a certbot email saying I only had one day left, making me wonder what was up. (I did do a domain registration move at some point, and possibly other things that could have somehow upset the automatic update process. So, this isn't a bug report.) Not having a simple UI response to the act of hitting "update certs" (and instead being dumped into the log) is all I'm poking at.

I don't know how long my personal instance has been running (a month or two now), but it has been a joy. Thank you.

@jadudm I'm looking for a mosquitto Cloudron package and found this topic. Do you have any plans to open-source the package you created?

We are working together with Reclaim Hosting and Bates University to create a new edition of Cloudron for this specific use-case. Please contact us at support@cloudron.io for futher information.
