Cloudron Forum

Hi,

Today I installed the VPN app on another server. Everything looked ready, but I couldn't connect.

I found the cause: none of the profiles have a DNS address assigned. There is no way to set it
manually in the VPN settings – it redirects me to the Cloudron dashboard, where there is no such option.

Is this a bug, or where can I set the DNS for the VPN profiles?

Thanks!!

I’d love to have a device wake-up app, namely UpSnap I wanted to run it on a Cloudron server, where it only works on the intranet. It’s the only app that’s a pleasure to use, both in terms of its look and functionality. I’d be happy to package it myself, but I haven’t coded for years, so I don’t know which tools were used or what configuration is needed to manage it all

I’d have to learn everything all over again

Yeah, I think I have a problem with Storage Box too. Yesterday, I configured Storage Box to backup Nextcloud (chmura.gadziu.eu), but it stops working because the system says it's bypassed, even though I marked it to do so.

Cloudron version: 9.0.17

Here are the logs related to Storage Box.

During a check on the server, I noticed that there is no "Services" tab where REDIS could be enabled. Has it been removed from the application or is there some kind of error?

When it comes to domain registrars, it is worth looking for one that offers domains at an affordable price and is a reliable company with a long history on the market. DNS management depends on your preferences.
I use a Polish registrar because of my country's currency, and I use Bunny.net for DNS management.

Today, I read about it on GitHub and the Uptime Kuma demo page shows the possibility of connecting MySQL. So, it is possible to bundle Uptime Kuma with MySQL.

Today, I checked it on my mobile device. The user experience has also improved compared to the previous version, but there are still a few bugs.

1. In the App Store, when I click on an app to read the information. If I want to close the app information, there is no “X” button, so I have to click outside the information area, in the dark area of the page, to close it.
   

2. Similarly, in the App Store, some apps with information are not adjusted to the screen resolution, meaning you have to scroll left and right.
   

3. In the Event Log in the application, it is not possible to scroll right to check Details. As for the Event Log in the system, it works correctly.
   

4. The Services tab on the mobile device does not display “Memory Usage” and “Memory Limit.”
   

These are the only errors I found; the rest is fine.

I just remembered
In the App Store, if app icons are black, you can't see them

I installed it on a test server. It looks great! The interface is modern and clear to me
I found a small bug, but it's no big deal! The footer is not centered on the login page

When generating the Application Key, did you select “Allow List All Bucket Names”? It only appears when selecting a bucket.

@girish Yes, rsync. Provider is Hetzner Storage Box

Not only related to WordPress, but also to Nextcloud. I had a similar situation where important files were missing from the backup, e.g., ".ncdata" or the file related to PHP was there. It was completely missing, and I had it set up without encryption. It looked as if the script in Cloudron was misinterpreted in relation to the unencrypted copy. If the provider storage had blocked such files, we would have had an error about the backup being incorrectly transferred to the destination.

"direction": "outbound",

Sending is from the outside i.e. someone has taken over your App Passwords on Profile.

@webliska You have to click on the list of the email in question then the information should appear underneath.

@webliska Send the header from the Email Log here and check if you have the application password in the “Profiles” tab.

The basic question is: did you change your Cloudron account password? Did you sometimes have a generated application password, e.g., for your email application?

In my opinion, this looks like the password for the email application assigned to the Cloudron account has been compromised.

According to the pricing page, SSO access is also available in the free “Community Edition” and in the paid version. As for the documentation, it applies generally to both the self-managed version and the cloud managed by the team.

Hi. How can you remove the screenshot of the error when connecting to the site. The name of your domain is given. I checked with myself to see if I could connect and the result is that I was able to connect to the dashboard without any problem. Try disabling the proxy if you have it enabled for "we" and clearing the DNS cache on the systems where you are trying to connect.

Okay, I got it.

1. Using SSH with root privileges. I was able to fix the application folder permissions.
2. I had to manually download the “.ncdata” and “.htaccess” files from the first server where the application was located.
   It looks like these files were not saved in the backup in rsync from the storage box. It was a backup without an encryption password.

Well, probably my fault. I had to move the backup from the Storage Box to my QNAP server to get maximum download speed, instead of from the Storage Box at 0 MB/s. Maybe something broke during synchronization.

Hello, I have a serious problem with launching the application. After successfully importing from a backup, when I try to launch the application, I get an error message about folder permissions. The error message is as follows:

2025-08-09T19:34:01Z An unhandled exception has been thrown:
2025-08-09T19:34:01Z Ensure there is a file called ".ncdata" in the root of the data directory. It should have the content: "# Nextcloud data directory"
2025-08-09T19:34:01Z Exception: Environment not properly prepared. in /app/code/lib/private/Console/Application.php:143

I am sending a screenshot from the folder manager showing what it looks like.

Now the question is, how do I fix this?

EDIT: I'll add something else. I tried to change the permissions, but nothing works in the permissions window. It just stays there without changing anything.
