  • Do you have a specific use case for two containers that you want to talk to each other?

    Sure, for example once a Jitsi Meet meeting ends (more than 1 person in a room in, everybody gone), save the chat log to CopyParty e.g. WebDAV push to /meetingname_date.txt would be enough to be useful. It’s something we tend to do manually on a regular basis.

    road map of what you are trying to accomplish before hand, and run it by the dev teams.

    Yes no rush and I can code so I would be able to test before suggesting anything.

    As I’m thinking about it, I wonder if your solution might be automation?

    I don’t touch AI but I do think conventions, e.g. not “just” an API but SWAGGER, specific filesystem on mountpoints, etc could facilitate this.



  • Thanks, that’s indeed exactly the kind of thing I’m looking for “The authentication glue you need.” but even more generalized than that, e.g. just “the glue you need.” not solely for authentication.

    Edit: to clarify and coming back after leaving few other comments, the 1 thing authentik has is that it is a cross-service need, namely nearly all services do need authentication AND, probably consequence of that, there are conventions and standards already in place, e.g. SAML, OAuth2/OIDC, LDAP, Auth0. So that makes everything much easier.






  • Well I do have Home Assistant, been running it for years, but HA is solely for … well home assisting (or IoT). HA as integrations but let’s say I want to use HA with … any of my other services, e.g. CopyParty to maybe store logs and makes them available or PeerTube to have videos from my camera, I can look at HA integrations, or CopyParty… issues maybe, or PeerTube npm registry.

    My point being that HA is a good example with integrations but it’s just one example. If I do take this example seriously though, is there a mechanism beside manual search in the list of integration that would list integrations with my services directly?



  • Different networks entirely. AFAICT no IP is hardcoded, only domain names which are the same.

    But… please feel free to check the URL, it seems to work.

    My hypothesis is that the player in the browser, maybe due to WebWorks, had cached the IP of the content. So I was getting the UI/API from the new IP but the content itself (namely video files) from the old IP which might have created some CORS/CSP issues and that the player itself blocked it. (updating the post on the forum with that idea in case others get in a similar situation)


  • Is the docker container spinning up and running, or failing and exiting?

    Running and healthy

    Run docker ps, it’ll tell you how long your containers have been running or if they exited.

    Indeed and they don’t exit.

    If everything is running then it’s most likely network, and I’d need to know how it is you used to access it on the old server (web address? Ip?)

    It it accessible via the domain name so networking, as least for UI and API, is working fine. Reverse proxy does let traffic go through.

    If it’s not running then you get to dig through error logs to get to the next step 🤓

    I checked error logs of all containers and seems fine. The only error I see are client side.








  • Honestly I’d say it doesn’t matter much. What matters is that your data are safe and you can afford a bit of time at first when things are a bit different than what you are used to.

    If you have a LOT of time or are very eager to learn, take something strange or not very popular. If you are in rush then start with a distribution that is popular, ideally that a friend, colleague or acquaintance also uses. Think of it as a team exercise.

    I personally use Debian but others might prefer Ubuntu or Mint to start with.

    But… yes, can be anything, just BACKUP your (and by that I mean data you have produced, e.g. documents, photos, saved games, etc) data then you should feel free to try!

    My mindset totally changed few years ago when I started being honest with myself and with others.

    It’s true, I’m in that meme… I don’t know much about Windows anymore. Initially I admit I was ashamed about it because I imagined that I’d be judged for it.

    What I did though, instead of trying to be better… was to be honest about it :

    • yes, it’s true, I don’t know Windows or MacOS as well I know Linux… but there is a reason WHY. Explain why, namely the consequence for my freedom, and theirs, totally changed the discussion.

    One day I even told my friendly neighbors : “Look I could fix your Windows computer but… I’m a professional, and I don’t know Windows so much. So I would have to look solutions up and that will take time while going against my principle, so I would have to charge you for it, and it’s not cheap. Instead, if you switch to Linux I’ll help you, and for free.” Guess what, they not only tried but they didn’t even need my help! They even, back then so few years ago, install WiFi driver via the command line on their own.

    So… yes, be in that picture, sure, just don’t be ashamed about it if you believe it’s for good reason. Do not be afraid of explaining others too and who knows, they might not only understand but even want to tag alone on this constant adventure for collective empowerment!
