  • Issue with app updates when using Box Storage backups
    jdaviescoatesJ jdaviescoates

    @Benoit said in Issue with app updates when using Box Storage backups:

    @james SSHFS and RSYNC

    Could it just be that you need to re-paste in the private key into the backup config?

    I had to do that to get my backup working again, but then they worked fine, see https://forum.cloudron.io/post/119366

  • 33 GB of usage, 177 GB system space occupied - how to find ghost files?
    jdaviescoatesJ jdaviescoates

    said in 33 GB of usage, 177 GB system space occupied - how to find ghost files?:

    occ versions:cleanup

    My server was filling up again and this command by itself just reduced my personal Nextcloud files space from 140GB to 87GB!

    With that in mind I just ran this code in the Web Terminal to automatically bin versions after 30 days:

    occ config:app:set files_versions max_age --value="30"
    

    I also did this so versions are kept for at least 7 days too:

    occ config:app:set files_versions min_age --value="7"

  • Separate out Backup listings and Backup Sites?
    jdaviescoatesJ jdaviescoates

    @girish said in Separate out Backup listings and Backup Sites?:

    Open to other ideas.

    Just thinking out loud, but I wonder if you just have no backup submenu and instead just have a single Backups page that has:

    Sites
    Listings
    App Archives

    🤷 🙂

  • PeerTube S3 Object Storage broken after upgrade(s) - Fix
    jdaviescoatesJ jdaviescoates

    I recently hit an issue where my PeerTube instance stopped being able to upload videos to my Scaleway S3 bucket. All move-to-object-storage jobs were failing with this error:

    NoSuchBucket: The specified bucket does not exist
    

    The confusing part was that the bucket definitely existed, and I could even connect to it successfully from the PeerTube web terminal using the AWS SDK directly.

    The Problem

    Recent versions of PeerTube (v6+) changed the object storage config format. New storage sections are now required: user_exports:, original_video_files:, and captions:.

    The v6.0.0 changelog also mentions that Docker environment variables were renamed (e.g., PEERTUBE_OBJECT_STORAGE_VIDEOS_* → PEERTUBE_OBJECT_STORAGE_WEB_VIDEOS_*), which the Cloudron devs will have implemented. However, the YAML config key videos: still appears to work based on the AWS example in the docs and this Hetzner S3 guide from October 2025.

    See the official PeerTube Remote Storage documentation for the current config format.

    My old config (broken in PeerTube v6+):

    object_storage:
      enabled: true
      endpoint: 'https://s3.fr-par.scw.cloud'
      region: 'fr-par'
      videos:
        bucket_name: 'your-bucket-name'
        prefix: 'videos/'
      streaming_playlists:
        bucket_name: 'your-bucket-name'
        prefix: 'streaming-playlists/'
      credentials:
        access_key_id: 'YOUR_ACCESS_KEY'
        secret_access_key: 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY'
      max_upload_part: 2GB
    

    My new config (working with PeerTube v6+):

    object_storage:
      enabled: true
      endpoint: 'https://s3.fr-par.scw.cloud'
      region: 'fr-par'
      credentials:
        access_key_id: 'YOUR_ACCESS_KEY'
        secret_access_key: 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY'
      max_upload_part: 2GB
      web_videos:
        bucket_name: 'your-bucket-name'
        prefix: 'web-videos/'
      streaming_playlists:
        bucket_name: 'your-bucket-name'
        prefix: 'streaming-playlists/'
      user_exports:
        bucket_name: 'your-bucket-name'
        prefix: 'user-exports/'
      original_video_files:
        bucket_name: 'your-bucket-name'
        prefix: 'original-video-files/'
      captions:
        bucket_name: 'your-bucket-name'
        prefix: 'captions/'
    

    Key changes:

    1. videos: → web_videos: (matches the Docker env var rename, though videos: may still work)
    2. prefix: 'videos/' → prefix: 'web-videos/' (not strictly necessary, but matches the Backblaze example in the docs)
    3. Added required sections: user_exports:, original_video_files:, and captions:

    After updating production.yaml and restarting PeerTube from the Cloudron dashboard, all my failed jobs completed successfully.

    Hope this helps someone else!

  • Improve user listing

    @james said in Improve user listing:

    Username, Full Name and Groups are already displayed.
    Maybe split username from Full name into its own and extra field for mail.
    Like that?

    Yes, exactly, split username from Full name into its own and extra field, and add an an extra email field too.

    My name is quite long and so my full username is not even displayed in full on Cloudron 9:

  • Improve user listing
    jdaviescoatesJ jdaviescoates

    I'd like the user listing to clearly display:

    Name, Username, Email, Groups

    The current listing leaves a lot to be desired. You can't even see their usernames, nor their email address.

    Also invited but uncreated users are displayed and shown as active. They should be hidden in Pending or Invited or similar: until they've created their account they aren't even users and by default shouldn't be shown in the lists of users.

    On my primary Cloudron (which is still running Cloudron 😎 the full first page of "users" listed are not users at all! They are just people who've been invited but have never set-up their accounts. The same problem exists in Cloudron 9.

  • Inactive users who haven't even created a username yet are listed as active.
    jdaviescoatesJ jdaviescoates

    In Cloudron 9 (and Cloudron 8 too, actually), users who've been invited but haven't yet set-up their account and still have no username are shown as Active users.

    That doesn't make sense - because they are categorically not active users.

    They would be better off being listed as Inactive.

    Or perhaps in a new filter called Invited, or Pending, or something similar.

  • Separate out Backup listings and Backup Sites?
    jdaviescoatesJ jdaviescoates

    In Cloudron 9 when I click on Backups in the left nav I expected to immediately be taken to a list of backups.

    Instead, it just opens the sub menu and I have to then click again on Sites (which isn't obviously where I'd find the listings) to find them.

    59531bb8-ef64-40cb-8593-6351fd13a209-image.png

    Perhaps separate them out? or maybe make clicking on the Backups in the nav automatically take you to /#/backup-sites as well as expanding the sub menu?

    I cannot left click on this app in a Updating (Queued) state:

    90b30ed4-f43a-4782-b8d5-b89e55022da5-image.png

    It correctly shows the url bottom left of my browser, and a middle click (I'm on linux) and right click both still work as usual, but something about it (I think probably something to do with the green Update arrow link) is stopping the left click work (same thing in both Firefox and Chrome).

    (it is also unclear what it's waiting for/ why it is Queued - as far as I can tell there are no other backups nor updates running)

    Such notifications used to have a handy reboot button:

    That appears to have been lost and ought to be added back.
