Cloudron Forum

After using Listmonk successfully for a while now, I am running into a strange problem this morning. Two things happened:

Sending authentication error. I have the app set (in the Cloudron backend, under app > Email) to send from newsletter@my.cloudronserver.example. But I was getting an error saying:

550 Authenticated user newsletter@my.cloudronserver.example cannot send mail as newsletter.app@my.cloudronserver.example

In the Cloudron backend, under the main email preferences, I set my.cloudronserver.example to allow masquerading. I tried resending the newsletter, and it seemed to work! But then...

Sending to only part of the list. After the above steps, I got a problem I've never seen before. Listmonk says the campaign I sent is "Finished," but only some of the emails were received. On the Campaigns page, it says:

Sent 501 / 1,311

I don't see any evidence of a problem in the logs, which say:

Jan 21 11:35:59 2025/01/21 18:35:59.167357 manager.go:413: start processing campaign (Start of 2025 (take 2))
Jan 21 11:36:14 2025/01/21 18:36:14.601113 pipe.go:217: campaign (Start of 2025 (take 2)) finished

Can you think of any reason why not all of the messages would be sent? Why it would stop at 501 and consider the process finished? What can I do to send the rest of the messages?

Thank you for this. I ended up creating a DO Spaces bucket, putting the backup there, and then restoring from that. To make it work, I had to use the Dry Run option and then manually sync the DNS. But now it is working.

I wish that Hostinger had something akin to DO Spaces, but it doesn't, so I am still trying to figure out my strategy for offsite backups.

Thanks @nebulon for your help!

Thanks. Yes, the mountpoint is mounted. I was ssh-ed into it at the time of trying.

Yes, it is a DigitalOcean volume. I didn't copy the content to Hostinger. It wasn't clear to me what was needed; the docs didn't say anything about this situation, so I assumed that the Backup Config data would take care of it all.

But if not, can you suggest an approach for how to help the new Cloudron installation access the old data? I'd be happy to upload the backup manually but don't see a way to do that.

I'm trying to move my server from DigitalOcean to Hostinger. I have Cloudron installed on the target side, but the Backup Config is not working in the Restore screen. Here is the error I'm getting:

Is there something I need to do to point it to the correct host? I tried putting the domain and the IP address of the old server in the Prefix field, but no luck. Is there something obvious that I'm missing?

Thank you for your assistance.

A friend just told me about Start9, which makes both hardware and an OS for self-hosting:

@girish Thank you, that worked. Though now I'm realizing that I'm not sure if this migration process will work, because the Gogs version we are running is newer than the upgrade process allows:( But glad we can now run these commands.

Update. I got some guidance on getting this running from the Gitea Cloudron docs, but I am still getting an error when trying to create a backup:

I'd also be grateful for any other tips on how best to migrate from Gogs to Gitea.

I'm trying to migrate Gogs to Gitea. I've had too many issues with the limitations of Gogs and need something a bit more fully featured.

I'm trying to follow these instructions but am getting stuck on the attempt to create a backup file:

root@90d8b446-14e3-45a1-87e0-e669aa2581c0:/home/git/gogs# ./gogs backup

How can I run this backup command in the Cloudron terminal environment?

Apologies for my ignorance, and thank you in advance.

Thanks! I think this will work for us.

@girish can you confirm that @robi is incorrect is is not already there?

Thank you! The Site Logo block did the trick. Thanks, @girish!

Wordpress has gotten so complex!

Hi friends—is there anyway to deploy Node.js on the LAMP server? or a recommended alternative approach?

How does one change the favicon in Managed WordPress? It didn't work to add the favicon.ico file to the file system, and I can't find the Site Identity tool described here.

Thanks!

Using 172.18.0.0/16 worked for me on the WOPI whitelist when using built-in CODE server.

Hugely exciting. Thank you!

Given that Lemmy is taking off due to the Reddit issues, it seems like it would be very worthwhile for Cloudron to support it.

@girish Will do!

@ntnsndr Update: I just created a test campaign for 500 dummy users, and it appears to be working normally, arriving in my x+[1-500]@gmail.com inbox within about 30 minutes of initiating the campaign. In order to achieve this, I did the following in Cloudron:

• Raised Listmonk memory limit to 512
• Raised postgresql memory limit to 2 GB

And in Listmonk SMTP settings:

• Max connections to 25
• Idle timeout to 2m, Wait timeout to 5m

I am still getting the "AxiosError: Network Error" on any analytics page on Listmonk.

Note that in the past I have been able to send campaigns to large lists without changing any of these default settings, but my server has been under increased load lately.

I would appreciate any further guidance on best practices from @girish or anyone else. Thanks!

Update: two days later, this setup did NOT work for my 900 person email list. I got an even lower view count than before, with more errors.

@ntnsndr I wonder what can be done to prevent this kind of thing for future users—different Cloudron configuration settings perhaps?
