Cloudron Forum

I think I and other may have asked for this before, but I couldn't quickly find posts about it with a quick search:

I want this:

To actually display the amount of free space available, not just what is used and the total.

Thanks.

Hello @jdaviescoates

Please try to use:

export MEDIA_ROOT="/media/Music"

in the /app/data/env.sh file.

That didn't seem to make any difference. Any my server is running out of space so for now I've just deleted the app to free app a little.

I already have a Volume called Music at /media/Music so I mounted that in the Storage settings of the app and then as per the docs here https://docs.funkwhale.audio/administrator/configuration/env-file.html I created the following within env.sh using the File Manager

MEDIA_ROOT="/media/Music"

also tried:

MEDIA_ROOT=/media/Music

Neither resulted in anything being displayed in Funkwhale.

Has anyone got this working yet?

Thanks!

PS I thought we normally had env instead of env.sh in Cloudron apps these days?

I would propose changing the email notification defaults for new users of this forum.

I would propose the opposite (ie no email notifications by default)

I dislike getting email notifications I haven't explicitly asked for. Just one more thing to unsubscribe from/ change settings

@staff is this already on the "add to official app store" roadmap?

Actually lots of other improvement could be made too. I think probably:

Calendar: Cal, Easy!Appointments, SOGo, Radicale, Rallly, Nextcloud.

Probably other improvement too.

I think AI ought to be added as a category here:

@girish it sounds like these were built to work with https://cursor.com/ (which is new to me - tbh I've barely explore this space at all), but presumably Claude Code, Replit etc etc would benefit from them too?

@timconsidine what would be the right things to do from your perspective?

The recently published Warm Homes Plan and Local Power Plan are both pretty decent IMHO (although still LOTS of room for improvement and not enough details about implementation yet).

IMHO there is much MUCH more political corruption related to keeping us all hooked on fossil fuels than there likely ever will be with renewables (which by their very natures are inherently more distributed).

@timconsidine said in The Matrix is coming:

a NetZero fascist

Unless I've misunderstood what you're getting at, this suggests to me that you are severely uneducated about seriousness of climate change (and likely the other 6 - of 9 - planetary boundaries we've already breached).

Personally I was reminded of this

Edit: seems the full episode is here:

@Staff in short: I'd suggest completely removing anything to do with tim@apple.dev in the package and rather than having the post-install To Do action to change the pw for that account (which isn't possible as it gets sent to tim@apple.dv) to just make it clear that the first account that one sets up will be the Admin account. Thanks!

I have set the SIGN_IN_PREFILLED=false now for next release

Is it possible to update that annoying setting for existing installs? I should I just re-install?

Edit: yes, it is possible. Just open the File Manager and edit the env file.

@scooke said in Not have the login info automatically fill in? And no email for Profile email change.:

EDIT 2: Rather than delete or stop the current app I thought about trying to register a new user, so I pasted the url in an incognito window (Chrome), and when I entered an email which isn't registered the window changed to include a window for a password and a button to "sign up", but when I hit that button I just get a red pop-up in the lower right saying the user has no access to that workspace. So irritating.

I was able to add a new user via an invite link. But I think I could only get that link because I'm logged in as the admin user I created post install using my own credentials instead of the tim@apple.dev one. Annoyingly every single time the login box is presented to me or any other user the username and pw are automatically filled with those silly tim@ credentials.

@scooke said in Not have the login info automatically fill in? And no email for Profile email change.:

do you mean, after the Cloudron installation you somehow registered your own user right away, rather than using the supplied credentials??

Yes, exactly.

The app installed fine for me with 1GB. I never actually used the default login when I was setting it up and if I try those credentials now, they don't work (although they do still automatically populate the login box whenever I try to login (although I guess/ hope perhaps that wouldn't happen with the updated value in the package). The password reset also works fine for the account I created on first login. Seems to me like there is no need/ use for the tim@apple.dev account at all.

Here's the impact it's having on me:

Product previous price New price as of 1 April 2026
CPX11 (FSN1) € 3.85 € 5.49
CX22 (HEL1) € 3.29 € 4.49
AX41-NVMe (HEL1) € 35.60 € 36.70
Snapshot (per 1 GB/Month) € 0.0110 € 0.0143

And also (on another account):

Product previous price New price as of 1 April 2026
CPX41 (HEL1) € 24.70 € 32.49

all prices excl. vat

Seems the Cloud servers are going up a lot more than the dedicated servers. I note that the CPX41 cloud VPS server (8 vCPU, 16GB RAM, 240 GB) is now only €4.21 cheaper than my significantly more powerful AX41 dedicated server (12 CPU, 64GB RAM, 2 x 512 GB drives, but in RAID so only actually 512 GB of storage available).

@Supaiku said in Reset Cloudron Installation to migrate/restore:

subtle restore prompt

Yeah, IMHO that ought to be made much more obvious, it's too easy to miss.

I made the same point here and here and here and here.

@Staff this is seemingly a common time sink that lots of people hit. Evidently it far too easy to miss the subtle "Looking to restore" option.

@james said in Show the whole value in email configuration status:

Hello @ruihildt

Maybe we should also add a copy button for the expected value?
This would make it more user-friendly.
Do you have thoughts on this @ruihildt?

@ruihildt said in Show the whole value in email configuration status:

As an improvement, I'd like to suggest as well to add a copy button and/or make clicking on the field itself copy the value.

I've basically not worried about viruses since ditching Bindow$ decades ago and moving to Linux. I don't use anything on my Android phone either. I realise it is possible to get viruses on both platforms, but still nothing like has always been the case with Windows. I do occasionally have to interact with Windows machines though and IMHO most antivirus apps are themselves bloated malware.

I could've sworn I'd seen a 9.0.18 release, but I'm on 9.0.17 and it tells me there is no update?
