I’ved tried a decent amount (caprover, cosmoscloud, dokploy, coolify, yunohost, etc.) and there always seems to be more around the corner . Right now I like runtipi, tho I have some issues (komga cant detect my media folder), it’s been the easiest for me to quickly try out many different selfhostable apps on one server. I didn’t know many of these apps existed, there are so many different useful and entertaining ones for different niches/jobs.
Whats your favorite self hosting manager thats capable of one-quick installs through an appstore of some kind? Which one do you think is the easiest to use for non technical users? I’m leaning towards Yunohost for ease of use and setup, but a lot of stuff was out of date. Downside is it doesn’t seem nearly as easy as the others to setup/manage apps yourself if you dont go the appstore route. Runtipi did recentlly make it so people can make and share repos for the appstore, tho I believe cosmos cloud and a few others already have had this as an option.
I read your post last night, thought I’d reply this morning and am disappointed in the replies you’ve already had. So you’ve got issues with your self hosting, and it annoys people you haven’t figured out the solution?!? Odd.
Anyway, well done on recommending Runtipi as I’ve never heard of it and looks interesting. I’m on the look out for things to recommend to people, and that looks good.
As for what else there is, there was a thread here this week asking similar, and lots got mentioned in there. I’m too lazy to find the link, but dig about on the 1st page. Most have already been repeated in here already.
I think self hosting is a journey, where you learn as you go. It’s all part of the fun of it. And perhaps using a platform that has a healthy amount of solutions already posted is the key for you rather than focussing on a one-click interface. I myself use Unraid, and that community is full of Q&A for every type of user.
I don’t like the phrase “one click” because it’s never really literally only one click, and whenever it’s even close to that there’s just too much stuff going on in the background that a) requires tons of work to code, b) is fragile, c) can never account for all use case etc etc etc
With that in mind I recently installed Debian Stable on my VPS, chose “Web server” during installation, and voilá: it serves!
I don’t mean to be a downer here, but the phrasing and tone of your post makes me think you’re angry that it’s not just as simple as pressing a button and having it all work. That is not their point of intent.
You’re complaining about something not seeing your media folder, but seem to not understand why. That’s your first problem. Dig into the logs and docs and figure out why maybe.
For those wanting everything to be like an app store…not gonna happen. The variables involved in just being connected to the Internet alone, LET ALONE being able to route traffic to your installs and serve traffic properly seems way above the level of effort you choose to dedicate to understanding it.
If you want simple “one-click” stuff, then just go for that. That’s why PaaS exists. They make a platform easier to use, so you don’t have to fuck with stuff.
If you’re just here to complain that everything isn’t super easy for you, there is a simple solution to that…
Since you want to be of assistance please let me know whats going on lol, and to clarify my post I like runtip, there are just hella of these panels (I just now started trying them out) and I want to know about more of them and what people are using.As I said in my comment…LOGS.
Learn more about what the actual error is and why it’s not working.
See I think you actually arent competent because this is something that wouldn’t have logs lol
Why wouldn’t it have logs?
I’m not angry about anything, the other apps work, the path simply doesn’t show up, if I click on root its empty while every other app has access to a runtipi folder in there, kavita worked fine, just komga for the same task didn’t.
Your desktop user doesn’t have access to root…
That might be why.
I dont even know what you’re talking about tbh, Im just asking what one click app stores ppl like, there are a lot of devs out there trying to simplify/streamline the process? There are no issues with the logs because there are no errors, its literally just clicking add path in the library and the path doesn’t have the folders and it doesn’t scan while kavita the folder appears and scans lol
