Cloudron Forum

I did a clean install of n8n and it installed quickly. So something is/was up with my old n8n instance. Not a huge problem, I'll just migrate my workflows to the new and archive the old instance.

@james Installing n8n-nodes-browserless from Settings > Community nodes, clicking Install a community node and pasting n8n-nodes-browserless works fine.

However, when I try to install Playwright the same way (n8n-nodes-playwright), the installation just hangs and n8n stops responding. The only way to get it back to working again, is to restore from backup.

This is what the Cloudron log window shows:

Sounds excellent, @james ! I'm guessing several apps could benefit from from having access to Browserless. Looking forward to this arriving in the appstore.

@james Thank you @james! I was under the (wrong) impression that it was already installed (due to it being listed in /app/code/node_modules, thank you so much for clarifying.

Having chromium (for eg. playwright) would probably be a good thing. I can imagine several use cases where a headless web browser could be useful.

It's listed in /app/code/node_modules (both playwright and playwright-core) but I can't find out how to use a Playwright node. Can anyone help?

@girish said:

@rmdes @odie I have updated the app to use symlinks under /app/data/bridges. You can add new bridges there or delete some symlink and add your own.

Thank you! Works excellent!

Reopening this. I suggested this in the community app topic here. @robi suggested this may now be possible to address.

My suggestion was this:

I'd love to see RSSBridge packaged in a way that you could update individual bridges directly from their repo. The official Cloudron app has the bridges in a read only folder. Lots of bridges are updated constantly, while the main app seems to be working without much problems. So as a consequence we don't get the fixed bridges on Cloudron, leading to more and more broken bridges, but with the app itself working as it should.

@robi said:

@odie the package can be adjusted to fix that.. just ask the team by creating a separate post for it

I did a while ago but it wasn't implemented. I can try again my previous suggestion, I can post again in this thread

Sorry for hijacking this topic. I will not post more about this in this topic.

@froodle said in Stirling v2: How to change password:

Hey creator of Stirling PDF here
We didn't drop it on purpose
We just missed change user password in the migration to V2
The 'missed' feature discussed before was changing another users password that isn't your own
We are adding both in upcoming update

Also we should have roll called as admin and the can manage settings etc as description, on my screen it shows as such, could be a UI bug related to your browser or something else
Are you able to provide a screenshot and extra info for that?

Thank you for adding this pw-change feature. I would still prefer to have a "change password" button on my "Settings->Security" menu. It's a bit weird having to go into the "People" menu, select your own user, and then change the password from there.

Here's the screenshot of the "admin role" title. It appears when you add a user. For me, it's confusing when one role is "user" and the other is a really long text (instead of "admin"):

@james Thank you for pointing to this file. It's incredible to me that in 2025, with all the security issues around, that they decide to drop such a feature. This sounds inherently insecure. Astonishing!

I followed your advice and established a new user and proceeded to delete the old admin user. Thank you for this suggestion.

To other users of this app - they decided to call the admin role "Can manage settings and invite members, with full administrative access" instead of calling it "admin".

Hello

I installed the Stirling PDF v2 package, and I can't find any place to change the admin password.

There are no password change options available anywhere that I can see. Tried on 4 different browsers but no success.

Anyone care to help?

@nebulon Thanks.

I chose to do a restore, since I could manually replace files that were updated/changed during these days.

Edit: will you pull the update? Or should I set my Nextcloud instance to stop auto updating?

I still have two issues remaining, but these have probably been there a long time:

    WebSocket server URL is not configured. Real-time collaboration requires a separate WebSocket server. Basic whiteboard functionality works without it. For more details see the documentation ↗.
    No High-performance backend configured - Running Nextcloud Talk without the High-performance backend only scales for very small calls (max. 2-3 participants). Please set up the High-performance backend to ensure calls with multiple participants work seamlessly. For more details see the documentation ↗.

Hello,

I post here, hoping to get some help. I've been running Nextcloud with no issue for a long time, but recently, multiple issues have occurred. I am not 100% sure, but I think most of these issues occurred after updating to v32 (the Nextcloud error log has several entries all dating back to when that update was installed).

Here are the new issues visible when I go to the "Administration -> Overview" page (I didn't include the code integrity checker disabled issue, since that has always been there):

There are some errors regarding your setup.

AppAPI deploy daemon
AppAPI default deploy daemon is not set. Please register a default deploy daemon in the settings to install External Apps (Ex-Apps).
Whiteboard real-time collaboration
WebSocket server URL is not configured. Real-time collaboration requires a separate WebSocket server. Basic whiteboard functionality works without it.

   High-performance backend
   No High-performance backend configured - Running Nextcloud Talk without the High-performance backend only scales for very small calls (max. 2-3 participants). Please set up the High-performance backend to ensure calls with multiple participants work seamlessly.

Errors in the log
60 errors in the logs since 25 September 2025, 11:13:34
Client Push
Client Push is not installed, this might lead to performance issues when using desktop clients.

In addition to these errors, Nextcloud now refuses to connect to my Onlyoffice instance (it even refuses to save Secret key in https://mynextcloudurl/settings/admin/onlyoffice). When trying to enter a new key (or use my existing key) and pressing "save", I only get a "spinning wheel" that seems to go on forever. Nothing is changed and saved. I tried the solutions listed in the Onlyoffice forum, including uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin, but that didn't change anything. Uninstalling clearly didn't remove any settings, as the old Secret key was still stored. And in this settings window, none of the settings appear that should appear after a successful setup. When I go to the Nextcloud file manager and click on a document, it only downloads the file, it doesn't open in the web browser any longer.

Here are a few errors in my Nextcloud log (I've removed "username" and ip address):

Exception Error occurred in the document service: Error while downloading the document file to be converted

If anyone can help, I'd be very happy. It is really hard, borderline impossible, for me to scrap my current install and start with a fresh instance. So any help will be appreciated.

@girish Thank you for the really quick fix!

Hello

Emby (stable) was updated to 4.8.11.0 in March (https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/tag/4.8.11.0)

Is it possible to update the Cloudron package?

Thanks!

@nebulon This is probably a meaningless response, but I have no ideas for this. I'll post back if I think of something, but it seems to me that there's very little I can do about this as an end user. Thanks anyway for looking into this.

@nebulon I'm no programmer, so I'm not 100 % sure I understand you correctly, but it seems like you managed to do what I referred to in this post? :Post #5 on this topic

If so, the way I understand it, is that the on first auth (the one that succeeds), the app pw verifies ok, but on the second auth, the post cannot find the link to the auth part of the plugin (which is referenced in the PATH_INFO part), and thus returns unauthorized. But I might be completely mistanken on this.

Thanks for looking into this. This plugin would be worth a lot, as it basically lets you manage your entire TTRSS installation with remote clients.

@nebulon said in Trying to get the FreshAPI plugin to work, but can't switch to local auth:

PATH_INFO

Thanks for following up. Does this help? Apache Core Features on apache.org - specifically under the headline "AcceptPathInfo Directive"?

Hello

This is a follow-up of the post in this topic: Trying to get FreshAPI plugin to work, but can't switch to local auth

The FreshAPI plugin looks like a really useful addon for TTRSS, and I hope it's possible to use this plugin on Cloudron. I post this request in case it was "forgotten" in the preivous topic. Apologies if this has been considered impossible or unviable to implement on Cloudron.

PATH_INFO is a requirement to have this plugin working. There's an instruction set posted here on how to implement: Non-Official Docker based Installs
Here's a link to the plugin repository: FreshAPI

Thank you very much.
