@girish haha true, just wanted to throw that in there 😄

@zylstra did you get to the bottom of this? I see that there was no response upstream as well. It's not very easy to get to the bottom of these things. I think for a start, you can disable most of the plugins and see if the page loads without them.

@zylstra Sometimes it helps to disable unwanted/unused Nextcloud apps.

I would not do this with backups for all the reasons @girish has mentioned (ie you'd have to restore the objects to standard before you'd be able to use them and this could take a while, not what you want when you need to quickly restore a backup), but what you could do if you really wanted to is to move older backups to Glacier automatically after a certain amount of time using automated lifecycle rules

@girish said in Backup size:

👍 Thanks, I deleted files in the Nextcloud recycle bin. Now, after a reboot, Cloudron System Info shows 4.3 GB for the Nextcloud instance. (I had to delete the nginx config of a stopped app to get the system to reboot.) Thanks, I'll keep both folders. I have no particular goal to remove Discourse or its backups. I measured /var/backups size by adding up the three separate folders that FileZilla showed me, but I now understand that some files are hardlinks. And the Backup data shows only 4.87 GB now, so my disk is small enough for me to move on. Thank you!

@zylstra thanks! fixed.

@murgero @girish
I think I figured it out: I suspect that I changed root's username soon after install, then forgot about it, or did not realize that I did so. I am not sure what happened with the password either, but what I had wasn't working. So I was able to change the email address associated with the (renamed) root account. Then I had to wait a couple days to get a new password while time4vps's occasionally available support opened port 25. It's set up correctly now.

Now that I mentioned it, I will state for the record that time4vps's support is NOT 24/7 like they so proudly state on their homepage. Their hours are GMT +3:
weekdays: 8:30 till 21:30
weekends: 10:00 till 16:30
So if you are on the West Coast of the US you can get support until 11:30 am on weekdays and until 6:30 am on weekends. 😕

@ianhyzy said in Cloudron expert for hire?:

just send me an email at ian@conjecturaltechnologies.xyz

Done.

@zylstra thanks, I have made a fix in our next release in any case - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/commit/73315a42fef03bc144fdfd707b8a6d5905733109

@atrilahiji thanks for the heads up! A bit embarrassing that we have overlooked that part. I've filled in the sections with appropriate text now.

@nebulon You try to make things easy for us but we'll screw it up somehow. ; )

@zylstra You have to SSH into the server and run those commands. You don't need to replace the "password", the root password of the database is actually just password (this is fine since it's not exposed externally and only available on localhost).

I went ahead and fixed ~20-30 places in the UI where we got that wrong. This and the it's / its always trips me 🙂

Wow, thank you for your attention to detail and changing these! By the way, I am loving Cloudron! 🙂

Support for Ubuntu 20.04 will come with next release.
