Cloudron Forum

Hi everyone,
I'm having an installation error. The app is waiting for DNS propagation of the subdomain, which never happens. But the A-record is created and readily accepted by other Cloudron's apps... I've tried with different A-records, but it's always the same. I think there might be a problem with Formbricks (?). Thanks for your feedback. Kind regards

@timconsidine Was on the same boat. Pulled my hair off until I saw your post. Millions thanks

@joseph Thanks. Unfortunately it didn't work for me. I've simply re-install the app as it was not that populated.

Hello everyone,

For some reason I cannot login anymore to my Komga instance. Is there a way to reset the admin password ?

I've tried using this CLI command but it doesn't work.
Command: --reset=user@domain.com --newpassword=YourNewPassword

Thanks for your support.
Cheers for now

@nebulon said in First time setup/Admin notes show incorrect + LDAP default role not functioning:

AUTH_CLOUDRON_DEFAULT_ROLE_ID

Thanks a lot. It works ! I really like this app. The UI is neat (dark mode from the start !) and it has a lot of potential. Let's try to develop something with it.
Best wishes

@nebulon Thanks. No they don't exist by default. You start with only Admin and Public ones and have to create the other roles you need, along with their related policies, with or without Admin rights. So ultimately you got a custom id role for each new role created.

I've then edited the env.sh and add export AUTH_LDAP_DEFAULT_ROLE_ID=<id of new role without Admin rights> but whenever I log a new Cloudron user it still inherits the Admin rights by default..

@nebulon Thank you for the clarification but I'm still confused regarding roles id.
I understand there are 4 main key build-in roles in Directus (Admin, Editors, Viewer and Public).
For instance if I want all Cloudron's users (except the Admin that has logged first) to be given by default the build-in role "Viewer" in Directus what role id should I use in AUTH_LDAP_DEFAULT_ROLE_ID=<id of role>? Thank you for your support

@jdaviescoates said in Kitsu, Collaboration Platform for Animation And VFX Studios:

I think those prices are for them managing stuff on your own servers.

Yes, correct. Self-hosting is free but you need to install and manage yourself the setup and updates.

Hello everyone,

I am developing a non-profit animation studio and would like to ask for help in packaging the Kitsu production tracker app. I would like to use it on my Cloudron instance where authenticated users would be able to access-it.

I've submitted the app to the Cloudron wish list, but I don't expect it to be picked up any time soon.

The developers provide a docker file, but for some reason it is not recommended for production.

If anyone is interested, please send me a direct message and we can discuss compensation.

Best wishes

• Notes: I'm developing a non-profit animation studio as a hobby. This tool is a jewel to organise and track an animation production with a team. I know it's niche and the chances of it being picked up and available on Cloudron one day are slim. However, I submit it here mainly as a reference and to possibly find a freelancer willing to take on the packaging job.

Would be great to have this app on Cloudron
Please make this happen

Hello everyone and best wishes for the new year

Just wondering if someone is using the official Nextcloud's Whiteboard app and how to manage the backend server installation on Cloudron ?

The server install process is described here : https://github.com/nextcloud/whiteboard?tab=readme-ov-file#backend

Thanks for your advices and support

Best regards

@nebulon Thank you. Yes, I did a quick search on the NC community forum but could not find anything recent. In some older posts where users mentioned similar issues, it was eventually classified as a bug and fixed with an update. I just wanted to ask other Cloudron users if they have similar problems (?) Time will tell...

Dear all,

I experience issues with Group Folders. They are visible but their files cannot be opened (except by me with admin status), only be downloaded, despite giving users all permissions notably writing ones... Sometimes the folder cannot even being opened, only downloaded..

I don't know exactly when the problem started, this NC instance is still a work in progress with only few users. I only got their feedback recently.
I assume it may be related to updating from NC 28.x to NC 29...

Is there a way to repair / reset all users permissions for a certain group folder ?

If not, is there a way to revert back to NextCloud 28.x ?

I've unfortunately a 2 days backup scheme so I'm stuck with NC 29.0.4 for the time being

Thank you for your suggestions and support

Best wishes

@girish no because I didn’t know if if with specific to Cloudron’s version of Nexcloud. Also I don’t know where to look for errors, found nothing special in the Nextcloud’s log (?).

Hello everyone,

Just FYI the latest update of Polls app (7.1.0) crashes Nextcloud 29.0.2 on Cloudron.

I needed to disable it in order to run Nextcloud again.

Apparently this update introduces changes in the API structure (?)

Best wishes

@girish sorry I've no idea about this

Dears forum member,

I've a question regarding Nextcloud Federated Cloud Sharing. Does it work between Nextcloud apps hosted on the same Cloudron ?

I've tried unsuccessfully to share the content of one folder between 2 Nextcloud apps (named DHP and UHS respectively). Both apps are hosted on the same Cloudron and both use Cloudron's LDAP users directory to authenticate their users.

For both apps I've activated the Federation plugin and allowed all file sharing options as per NextCloud forum's instructions.

I also add each app as a trusted server for the other just in case. I could later-on get the status color to green by running occ federation:sync-addressbooks command.

Anyway, when DHP app try to share a folder with an UHS user the folder is listed as shared on DHP side.

But on the UHS side the shared folder has a new type of icon and the content of the folder is not visible..

NB: In the Federation instruction it is mentioned that "Your Apache Web server must have mod_rewrite enabled, and you must have trusted_domains correctly configured in config.php to allow external connections

I could configure the trusted domain in php but I don't know how to enable mod_rewrite (?)...

Thanks for your support and long live Cloudron !

Dear Cloudron community,

As a sideline / hobby, I'm using Cloudron (running on Ubuntu 22.04 based VPS) to manage a number of web applications for non-profit academic and health institutions (Nextcloud, OnlyOffice, Moodle,...).

I would like to package and add 2 specific applications to the Cloudron, but unfortunately lack the technical skills to do so. It might not be much work though...

KoboToolBox : Open source, user-friendly survey application widely used by NGOs and academic institutions.
NB: I've tried LimeSurvey, which is already available as Cloudron's app, but find it less intuitive and with fewer features.

There is a docker file as well as a docker installer which really eases the installation process. But could it be easily packaged for Cloudron?

iHRIS v5 : A Human Resources for Health Information System. Quite a unique application on the open source market.

There is a Docker as well as an Ansible installation script.

I would be grateful if some brave soul could help me package these two apps for my Cloudron. I can help with a (modest) contribution depending on the amount of work required .

Thanks a lot and I look forward to your feedbacks .

Best wishes
