@jdaviescoates Sorry, but Firefox is not what it used to be (or the web has changed) - I gave up on Firefox due to so many sites not loading, not being compatible or other issues. Might be their strict default privacy and container settings.

@jdaviescoates

CALdav = calendar protocol
CARDdav = contacts protocol

I keep my very few plugins updated as follows: I git pulled them all

Then in the /data/ folder, I keep a bash script „gitup.sh“ with.

#!/bin/bash
cd plugins/
ls | xargs -I{} git -C {} pull
cd ..
chown -R www-data:www-data plugins/

I run this manually from time to time from the cloudron terminal panel via

sh ../gitup.sh

I never tried to run this via cron - might work as well.

@jdaviescoates said in How to stop Roundcube session ending when I close my laptop lid?:

You can say that again! Recent updates to Roundcube have broken logging in without an error and the CalDAV connection.

I have neither of these issues on current Roundcube with Safari or Edge. No errors logging in and I’m staying logged in. What browser are you using?

@potemkin_ai BTW who is this Cloud-Ron and where can we meet him?

@girish Thanks for the tip on updating SSH-keys.

I wasn't talking about fail2ban reporting, only. I was also referring to the built-in "rate-limiting" of Cloudron (and other security features, e.g. the cloud firewall) where there's currently little or no transparency what's happening.

Since Cloudron "takes over the server" I think it would be a good opportunity to add transparent monitoring of the system's security features similar to the "System info" tab...

@ajtatum I‘m no expert on networking but it sounds like that „Firewalla“ thing is the issue if you can’t ping anything on a fresh Ubuntu install. I run Cloudron on a NUC behind a simple router with a dynamic IP address and Open ports as recommended and did not have had such issues….

@perler said in admin panel - authentication failed:

@necrevistonnezr ok, restarting the app was new to me, but so I did. no success.

I have the feeling something is messed up here. whe having /app/data/data/default/admin_password.txt

AND the

admin_password =

line in application.ini? which one is it? I followed the documentation to the letter, multiple times and tried some combinations of passwords in admin_password.txt and/or/not in application.ini - no dice.

@support ?

I would say, documentation is pretty clear:

The password is located at /app/data/data/default/admin_password.txt.

It's quite possible it is necessary to have this in a separate file due to Cloudron specifics (read only file system etc.) but it is what it is.

@perler As mentioned in the docu: Don't use the admin password in /app/data/_data_/_default_/configs/application.ini but in /app/data/_data_/_default_/admin_password.txt! Works fine for me. Also, don't forget to restart the App in between.

Step by step:

• To enable it, open a File manager and edit the file /app/data/_data_/_default_/configs/application.ini. Set the value of allow_admin_panel to On.
• restart app
• You can now login with the username admin. The password is located at /app/data/_data_/_default_/admin_password.txt.

@girish said in Fail2ban (and other security activity) in Event Logs:

@necrevistonnezr There is no fail2ban on Cloudron. Currently, we just rate limit all authentication routes to minimize risk (and with 2FA and app passwords risks are even lower now). We had a plan to implement firewalling this release (rate limits per IP, block specific IP etc), but already changes were piling up. So, we will have some more advanced firewalling features in a future release.

Hi, as I'm still pondering securing my home server Cloudron setup (with all those open ports), I'd like to re-visit this topic. It'd be very helpful as a first step if rate limiting incidents and other relevant information (e.g. fail2ban for SSH) would be available in Cloudron without using the terminal and polling logs in several different places.

@girish No issues with two instances here...

@erronnie Would also be interested in this - in particular if you can still manage mails with your own domain in that setup….

Hi,

is there something wrong with the current Roundcube package?

The currently updated Roundcube 1.6.0. package

shows version 1.5.3 in the about screen:

I also noticed that the changelog states that "Classic" and "Larry" skins are removed (see https://roundcube.net/news/2022/07/28/roundcube-1.6.0-released) but it's still present in the Cloudron package:

I don't think it's a browser / cache issue as I get the same results in a new "private" window of my browser....

@LoudLemur I haven't tried it but it looks more visually appealing and it has offline reading support...

Where possible, by default shiori will parse the readable content and create an offline archive of the webpage.

@timconsidine said in Is there any real alternative to Google Docs / Office 365 out there?:

Working together on a document at different times is way more common, so common that it is almost the only scenario to consider in practice. In this scenario, tracked changes is what really matters.
Unless they have made a lot of improvements I haven't seen, on this Google is a distant 2nd to MS Word or any of the alternatives.
In many sectors (eg legal and commercial teams), collaboration is a fringe outlier, tracked changes is what matters.

Fully agree. I work in a legal team, tracked changes and using the exact same document format as the other contractual party is a must. You can’t start telling JP Morgan on the other side to please use markdown or „Sorry, you won’t see all my amendments because I used LibreOffice“. And in these industries, „collaboration“ is exchanging lengthy agreement drafts via email.

@timbo This should play nicely in the LAMP app (see discussions for Littlelink here: https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/2965/littlelink/1) or even the Surfer App(?)

@micmc said in Submit Cloudron to Ubuntu for Publication:

Anyway, those who move to Linux or other Unix-based desktop OS are doing to NEVER come back to either Winthedoze or Crackmymac for sure.

Simply not true as a generalization. If you need to work and depend on compatibility with file formats of your customers, there’s now way around them (e.g. exchange of contract drafts with tracked changes in Word as a lawyer). And I learned to love my mac for its simplicity and „just works“ approach after using Fedora and Ubuntu privately for a while - I‘m more productively working and less fiddling with the OS and little tools…

@girish said in collectd is unable to start:

@AniTexs I think maybe the collectd config got overwritten during the upgrade. If you run /home/yellowtent/box/setup/start.sh , this will put the expected collectd config.

Also, check the content of /etc/default/collectd . It should contain:

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/python3.8/config-3.8-x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.8.so

After that, systemctl restart collectd.

Similar issue after upgrading from Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04 - but despite the reference to libpython3.8.so being present in /etc/default/collectd , it seems that this file is no longer present...

However, what is present is /usr/lib/python3.10/config-3.10-x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.10.so - after referencing this file in /etc/default/collectd (i.e. adding LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/python3.10/config-3.10-x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.10.so), and restarting the collectd service, it starts running again.

... but will this change persist?

@girish If that replacement should go into /home/yellowtent/platformdata/INFRA_VERSION - no, mail service still not working and showing the same error, even after a reboot.

Jun 27 05:50:14 cat: /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/memory.limit_in_bytes: No such file or directory
Jun 27 05:50:23 cat: /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/memory.limit_in_bytes: No such file or directory

EDIT: I guess that replacement should go into /home/yellowtent/box/src/infra_version.js - but after a restart of box, still not running...

EDIT 2: After 30 minutes or so, mail service is running again!

@girish How do I stop Solr in the terminal? I can't stop it in the dashboard - it just shows a spinning circle...

@girish said in Nextcloud App "not responding" after upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04:

@andreasb I managed to reproduce this.

To fix this:

# sed -e 's/"version": ".*",/"version":"50.0.0",/' -i /home/yellowtent/platformdata/INFRA_VERSION
# systemctl restart box

The issue is that Ubuntu 22 uses cgroups v2 by default. Containers have to be re-recreated to recognize this change. Changing the infra version triggers a container re-create. Note that it will take a bit for the containers to get re-created. The UI will show "configuring" for all the apps and they will come up one by one.

I have fixed the guide accordingly.

Somehow, this doesn't persist. After a reboot, I see

{
    "version": "49.0.0",
    "baseImages": [
        {
            "repo": "cloudron/base",

        }
    ],

in /home/yellowtent/platformdata/INFRA_VERSION

And the mail service does not start.
The error log shows:

@hustler A forum search for „raspberry“ was too much to ask? https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/3107/cloudron-on-a-raspberry-pi

Nope. It looks like this:

@SamGreenwood said in Nextcloud not responding:

The weird part of this whole saga is that Nextcloud seems to run normally and then randomly crash after either an auto backup was run or after it gets updated. Before I found CLoudron I used Nextcloud in its own Linode instance and had no issues.

Never had such issue. What apps / plugins are activated in Nextcloud?

@bigbucketboy said in Why change email server location?:

When we change the name does that also mean I would go to mail.example.com to access my email?

If you mean is that the correct IMAP / SMTP server in that case? yes.
If by "access" you mean a webmailer, you have to pick one of the webmailers in the appstore (Roundcube, SoGo, Rainloop, SnappyMail...).

@abargel Can it be your backup settings, possibly?

@girish said in How to stop Roundcube session ending when I close my laptop lid?:

@jdaviescoates $config is the correct variable name.

Well, for some values, it seems that $rcmail_config is correct…

As said before, for me

$rcmail_config['session_lifetime'] = 10080;

works?!

@necrevistonnezr And you've had consistently good luck syncing with Apple native caldav/carddav clients?

Yes, again with a simple setup. One private calendar/addressbook, one family calendar/addressbook, no groups or stuff like that.

@foliovision said in Akamai Technologies, Inc. Acquires Inverse, SOGo developer:

NextCloud can work but is almost a full time IT project to make NextCloud perform reliably. Experimenting with EteSync now. It's hosted on someone else's server but is open source and driven to work with lots of open source projects.

The Nextcloud instance of Cloudron has not failed me once. The key is - as said many times - activate as little plugins as possible and only official ones. I have no talk, mail, office, encryption (my server is at home), all this stuff. Just file sync and contacts / calendar - and it just works, in particular NC 24 was also a leap in speed.

Also, I wouldn’t rely on test results with alpha / beta versions of macOS.

@privsec Plex has by far the biggest hardware support, especially on Smart TVs.

@Alberta-Higgins You are totally not a bot!

@murgero said in Tutorial: remote backup of local Cloudron backup snapshots with restic / rclone:

@necrevistonnezr Very in-depth. I don't use Cloudron anymore, but this is gonna be really good for admins looking for something easy to manage.

Thanks! Can I ask why you’re not using Cloudron anymore…?

@Trankery see https://docs.whmcs.com/System_Environment_Guide#PHP - it doesn't even support php 8 it seems, anyway.

Empty caches?

Hi,

looking at my mail logs, some emails get through but there's a spamassassin timeout (it seems) and the sender receives an error message

Anything I can do to mitigate this?

Mail has a 4 GB memory limit and there are 2 DSNBL zones activated:

bl.mailspike.net

@nebulon A tool on my phone to sync two folders that are on the same server?

Note that (very effective) compression using zstd has been added to restic beta recently (beta versions are quite stable) - my repository went from 221 GB down to 180 GB with default settings. I have updated the tutorial to reflect this and also a section for migration of existing repos.

@Trankery I also noticed that IonCube seems to be available for PHP 7.x but not for PHP 8.x in LAMP....

@opensourced said in Unable to install apps:

@girish I moved the appsdata folder to another mounted drive

I think you should have led with that...

@marcusquinn said in Solved: Nextcloud WebDav slow on Mac - SFTP is very fast:

I kinda just use BetterSnapTool a lot for split-screening on one screen, but will try them out. Thanks

Off topic: If you use BetterSnapTool check out BetterTouchTool from the same author! It‘s the „parent“ product and almost as versatile as Keyboard Maestro, see e.g. https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOS/comments/nke8g6/bettertouchtool_is_one_of_the_most_worthit/, https://talk.macpowerusers.com/t/show-us-your-bettertouchtool-tricks/16563 of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCJVbooKspo

Best 5 € I ever spent. It can be a key re-mapper, clipboard tool, gesture manager, etc. etc.

@marcusquinn
Shouldn’t macFuse with SSHFS do the same? https://sftptogo.com/blog/how-to-mount-sftp-as-a-drive-on-mac/

I use Nimble Commander and / or Forklift as a Finder replacement because I do like two pane file managers with quick filtering etc.

If that's not clear then perhaps it's not for you.

Hint: Cloudron uses a RO filesystem for its apps.

I know that Cloudron has read only parts - but this forum shouldn’t be a random link drop, though people sometimes treat it like that. At least if you want people to engage.

(the same is true for app wishlists - sure I could just drop https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted and say „I want“ but at least tell people why a certain project is worth investing efforts into and how it is better than its alternatives - this is not directed at you…).

@girish I’ve disabled this „app“, too, it’s all good.

@eganonoa said in High Performance Back-end for Nextcloud Files:

Save it into /app/code/config in the nextcloud container, make it executable and run it.

…. but you can’t do that as a Cloudron admin or was that directed at @girish ?

Have you noticed performance improvements - in particular against the improvements coming with NC 24?

@nebulon said in Nextcloud 24 has been released and seems to improve speed!:

We have published the latest package now, but will only roll it out for automatic updates over the course of this week. If you are curious, you can manually check for updates and apply it. In such a case never skip the backup prior to the update!

Update went through just fine - but mind you I have very little apps installed! Your mileage with (outdated / not yet updated / fringe) apps may vary…

EDIT: WebDAV access feels noticeably faster. Unsure yet about the web UI - might be a caching thing on iPad Safari

Yes and also apk outside the Play store may not be an option on work phones etc.

@girish said in Roundcube 1.5 beta - development continues!:

@avatar1024 I just tried FairEmail, nice that it managed to pick up the SMTP/IMAP server automatically of my Cloudron mailbox thanks to the email autoconfiguration we have in place now ! The UI is a bit rough, but can confirm it works. I will go back to K-9 I think.

@SamGreenwood said in Nextcloud not responding:

I'll do a little bit more experimenting and report back, I just noticed that a plugin I installed has reviews saying that it bricked people's NC installs.

It's been said in this forum and the Nextcloud forums: Use plugins as little as possible. It just doesn't work reliably, in particular with 3rd party plugins.

I used to love it when systems allowed modifications (like Firefox, Nextcloud etc.) - now I avoid it like the plague, because such mods are suddenly no longer supported or break the system. Either a system offers more or less everything you need out of the box, or I don't want to use it in the first place.
