Reboot of git.friendi.ca and wiki.friendi.ca


There will be a server reboot due to some kernel update paired with ip address config change that will be tested.

Reboot takes place in in 30 minutes.

I tried to move some stuff from filesystem to database with:

bin/console storage move -n 50

I get this error:
[Error] Der Datenbankspeicher konnte keine Daten einfügen

and in the log I see only this:

2021-02-01T13:15:28Z console [ERROR]: DB Error  - {"file":"Database.php","line":765,"function":"e","uid":"cc501c","process_id":3308496}

Anyone got any idea what this means? #Friendica current stable version.

Wiki internal link problem


I edited this wiki page https://wiki.friendi.ca/docs/quick-start-guide and wanted to set an internal link to the next wiki page in the bottom. When I use the WYSIWYG editor it sets the wrong link/url

It should seit it to
https://wiki.friendi.ca/docs/quick-start-network

But it sets it to
https://wiki.friendi.ca/wiki.friendi.ca/docs/quick-start-network

Who can reconfigure this behaviour?

'tis true, #Friendica offers contact groups you can share specific posts with.


Nachdem ich gestern bei meiner Nextcloud schon #2FA aktiviert habe, bin ich am überlegen, ob ich das bei meinem #Friendica Konto nicht auch machen soll?
Wer nutzt denn alles bei Friendica 2FA und kann berichten, wie stabil das ganze läuft?
Gibt es irgendwelche Nachteile dadurch?


Let's say I wanted to hook up a town with lots of #facebook #boomers on the Fediverse by creating a server, which platform would you recommend? #Pleroma? #Mastodon? #Friendica? Another one?


With each new #Facebook scandal like the recent WhatsApp-related one, the #Fediverse welcomes a wave of new users and admins. #Friendica gets its tiny share of the newly converted to decentralized social media. Some stick, most don't, but there's always this one guy (it's always a man) whose first few messages on GitHub are to angrily complain that Friendica isn't user-friendly enough and that it is spelling doom for a project they didn't know the day before and for the #Fediverse as a whole.

This has been going on ever since I joined the project in 2016, and we're still here. 🤷‍♂️

Hello !Friendica Support,

As I just noticed, my own public posts do not appear on the /community page on my server.

Friendica 'Red Hot Poker' 2021.03-dev - 1385

#friendica #bug



I deleted about 90 users, which gave me 180000 tasks in the queue. Didn't think about that before, but that will take a few hours now.

Just to report back. Since the update to 2021.01 I don't have to restart php constantly any more. #Friendica is faster and makes more fun than ever.

Thanks to all the developers and contributors.


Houston we have a problem!

Today I created a test user to try if my Twitter connector is working (fun thing, it is working on the second attempt to connect, on the first it was read only).

Now after the test was finished I deleted the user via the /remove me function, I entered the password and pressed the button there. Now the user is still shown in /admin/users and it can't be deleted by me (the admin).

However the user shows up in /admin/users/deleted and it says will be deleted. So it seems it is only a cosmetic thing. Also I have the option (trash can button) to delete other users.

I don't care in that particular case, but it seems something there is b0rken.

This is how it looks:

Never mind the red arrow.

Hello !Friendica Support, quick question regarding the nickname.

Can the #Friendica nickname be changed?

In /help I see:

Nickname

A nickname is used to generate web addresses for many of your personal pages, and is also treated like an email address when establishing communications with others. Due to the way that the nickname is used, it has some limitations. It must contain only US-ASCII text characters and numbers, and must also start with a text character. It also must be unique on this system. This is used in many places to identify your account, and once set it cannot be changed.


So this is still correct, right?


Strange preview in one of my posts.

After I saw the preview I edited the post, on one hand to see if the post really contained a link to the previewed page, on the other hand because it contained a misspelled word.

After editing I saw this:

The square is an empty iframe it seems:

Also something seems wrong with the cookies we use, so soon it seems these cookies will be blocked, then staying logged in will not be possible anymore... maybe...

Hello all,
if embedding (previews) of links is not working for you in #Friendica, no matter if #Twitter links or some other previews, you have to deactivate the Twitter addon and activate it again, this solves the problem and afterwards you get nice emedded previews for links again!

!Friendica Support


!Friendica Support is there still a working way to embed Twitter/Nitter links in #Friendica so there is a preview shown? Do I need to change some setting or use some special bb code?


Hello !Friendica Support,

Registration on my server is open by approval. However, at the moment it is not possible not to approve the registration, because unfortunately nothing happens when I press the Deny button on the /admin/users/pending page. The contact remains in the list.

Despite server block posts have arrived


Hello !Friendica Support,

i have blocked the server example.de, nevertheless i receive posts from this server that contain hashtags that i follow. I think that this behavior is a #bug. When I block a server, I don't want to receive posts from it.

#Friendica


My #Friendica server has about 120 user accounts that are not mine. 3 days ago I ran the Friendica Cleanup script for the first time. I changed some things in it to only notify people but don't delete any accounts.

It sent 66 notifications, meaning 66 accounts of that 120 did not login within the last 6 months. Since then on of the notified users logged in again in order to keep the account, as explained in the email.

On my server the active accounts within the last month were 15%, according to The Federation.

Message Queue


Hello !Friendica Support,

after deleting about 20 to 30 old messages, the message queue has grown extremely and this delays the delivery of new messages by a few hours.

  • Message Queue 2491 - 16976

Take a look at this conversation in the Admin Forum: https://friendica.xyz/display/adf174d5-145f-e0b3-96c0-4f5201504154

Post expiry and cleanup of #Friendica really has to be improved. I mean it has to be easier to set up.
My personal Friendica server (5 news accounts) currently uses about 60GB of storage, 32GB out of this is photos (items storage on disk).

!Friendica Support


Why is there many of those tasks in the queue?

Hi, I'm using #Friendica on my single-user node. Beyond Mastodon and Pleroma, #PeerTube (video) and #FunkWhale (music) are also built atop #ActivityPub.


I have problem with the worker in the current development branch.

First let me say I only have this problem on one of my two Friendica servers, the one with Apache, but that might not be related. The other one runs on Nginx.
I now know, that I have to either reboot or restart mariadb, restarting the deamon does not help (ie. stopping and starting it again), restarting php-fpm or httpd does also not help. At least not restarting these alone.
So what I do is:
systemctl restart httpd.service php-fpm.service mariadb.service friendicadaemon.service

I confirmed that the daemon was running before by daemon.php status, also when I stopped it the returned info was Worker daemon process 471544 was killed..

As soon as I ran systemctl restart httpd.service php-fpm.service mariadb.service friendicadaemon.service I can see many worker processes, before there were none.

Any of the developers interested to get information to trouble shoot this? Let me know what to do the next time this happens or how to exclude a server problem first.

At #Friendica, we ship the Composer dependency manager compiled executable with the project because we don't assume people will have it available/be able to install it on their server. The recent 2.0 version of Composer doesn't work with a particular dependency we've been using, so we aren't able to update the executable past the version 1.9 and the shipped executable is the only reliable way of pulling dependency with a git install. Each release we also prepare an archive with all the dependencies already included.


Anyone here running a #Friendica server with #Apache and the daemon instead of the worker?

It seems that in this setup, opposed to #Nginx, I need to restart httpd, php-fpm, Mariadb and the daemon after a git pull.

I tried only php-fpm and only httpd, but that did not work. The daemon alone restarted also doesn't work.

Maybe someone has an idea about that problem?

Links and pictures are stripped from posts going from #Friendica to #Twitter

That is kind of a problem for me. Can anyone confirm this?
