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 I’m leaning towards Yunohost for ease of use and setup, but a lot of stuff was out of date.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 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…
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?
just did the action of adding library and looking fir the folder and the log didnt even record anything, if I scan the log gets stuff popping up but i cant see the folder I want to scan in the first place so the log is useless?
Its not an error, the logs wouldnt be related to it, wouldn’t something have to run? I can view the logs im 99% sure there wont be any relevant info, it shows paths just not the runtipi folder which is what is typically the only folder exposed to runtipi apps, instead I can see the rest of my servers directory and the root folder shows as empty
