[00:02:06] <captainhonora> as a non technical user who runs yunohost for my community because we are broke, I'm much more likely to fail a 10 step FTP process than a 4 step process of cp with USB key.
[08:15:02] <tituspijean> Where have you downloaded Filezilla from?
[08:15:40] <tituspijean> To clarify, do you already know the steps to do so, or do you require a tutorial?
[08:29:13] <tituspijean> I've opened a feature request to integrate file picking in the webadmin: https://github.com/YunoHost/issues/issues/2808
[17:23:13] <artlog> freetux: j'ai rajouté une proposition dans l'issue https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/peertube_ynh/issues/549
[17:23:16] <freetux> Oui, j'ai vu ça tout à l’heure.
[17:23:17] <freetux> Pas encore testé.
[17:23:19] <freetux> Je te dirai.
[17:23:22] <captainhonora> > <@tituspijean:matrix.org> I've opened a feature request to integrate file picking in the webadmin: https://github.com/YunoHost/issues/issues/2808

Oh that would be amazing! thanks so much. File picking would solve all this.
[17:23:25] <captainhonora> > <@tituspijean:matrix.org> Where have you downloaded Filezilla from?

Directement depuis le site linké dans la doc yunohost. Le site officiel donc. Recememnt filezilla met plein de trackers dans la version gratuite.
[17:23:28] <captainhonora> People reccomended WinSCP instead
[17:23:30] <captainhonora> Right now I am trying to format a SD card, put the backup on it and mount it. I tried exFat and it didn't work.
[19:10:00] <captainhonora> Sould I run post-install even if I intend to restore from backup?

[19:10:02] <captainhonora> I do not know the steps. A tutorial would be nice. I will try SCP in the meantime.
[19:17:54] <miro5001> No, don't run post-install if you intend to restore a full backup
[19:21:15] <captainhonora> This means I cannot access the webadmin. no?
[19:32:07] <captainhonora> What else should I use than exFat on the USB key to copy the files to the yunhost backup folder? Exfat does not work.
[19:32:58] <captainhonora> This is before post-install so I have neither SSH nor webadmin. Just the CLI and USB ports
[19:35:17] <captainhonora> Failed to recognize exfat type.
[19:36:16] <miro5001> Where is the backup now? What os are you using?
[19:37:39] <captainhonora> The backup is on multiple computers, but let's say both a macOS and windows computer. I transfer the data to a 64GB USB key the backup is 16GB .tar with date
[19:38:43] <captainhonora> dmesg outputs "volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupt. Please run fsck."
[19:39:27] <captainhonora> fsck just says /de/sda2 is mounted and outputs
``` e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting.```
[19:42:21] <miro5001> OK, did you try winscp? Using root user
[19:46:04] <captainhonora> Not yet, you think it's simpler?
[19:46:06] <captainhonora> I can try.
[19:46:19] <captainhonora> ok the program is up
[19:46:49] <captainhonora> The thing is, when I boot up yunohost it says no IP detected on local IP, with a question mark
[19:50:44] <captainhonora> Is a local SSL fingerprint enough?
[19:52:06] <captainhonora> https://aria.im/_bifrost/v1/media/download/ASL393qXb9IDnsffX3pYEjKfyzWITtntnSjZ_qfDSWHJkgOtv-r0NR5JE7AFyTkKWURIYxNnPb_gy_Dowj5uxe1CeehL5SewAG1hdHJpeC5vcmcvcUt0T3h2ckd1SlZEVWpOckV6QVFwS0ZH
[19:53:03] <captainhonora> (not sure what to enter in "host name" either. I would put the .ynh.fr domain here usually, but this is before post install so there is no domain.
[19:55:57] <miro5001> Use sftp and the local ip address of the server
[19:56:02] <captainhonora> Ok meanwhile I got the USB thing working by formatting it again so now I have the backup
[19:56:42] <captainhonora> I guess I must have removed the stick a milisecond too soon after ejecting
[19:57:13] <captainhonora> > <@captainhonora:matrix.org> The thing is, when I boot up yunohost it says no IP detected on local IP, with a question mark

is this rare? I feel like Correct rare bugs
[19:57:57] <miro5001> Is it a new hardware?
What's the output of `ip a`
[19:58:19] <captainhonora> Yes new hardware. I tried running ip a and the output was strange
[19:59:33] <captainhonora> https://aria.im/_bifrost/v1/media/download/AUiG6aqvBrKHEafB3KN7tiJL3UQGVHI8qSKMcHY8drRwADEzSe_vts1wyrUH7saYYwdmals3PYuYsh9AXGB6hlNCeehMUkhwAG1hdHJpeC5vcmcvSEFJZkZlZFBvVUlRb0lpb3JzU1pjTHVT
[20:00:02] <captainhonora> qdisc noqueue state unknown.
[20:00:08] <miro5001> So the local ip is 192.168.1.42
[20:00:22] <captainhonora> Thanks!
[20:07:09] <captainhonora> I have two ethernet ports on this machine, could this be related or not
[20:12:47] <miro5001> Ah, you have already the usb mounted and you have the backup on it
You can simply run `cp 2... /home/yunohost.backup/archives `
Then run `yunohost backup list`

[20:15:54] <captainhonora> Yep did the cp I am waiting for the command to finish running (blinking white underscore)
[20:18:54] <miro5001> Good
When it finishes, run `yunohost backup restore 2...`
[20:22:22] <captainhonora> thanks! What does the "2..." mean here? or you mean just typing 2 and autocomplete the file name.
[20:25:33] <miro5001> Yes
[20:28:53] <miro5001> It will be hard to type all of it 😅
[20:32:51] <captainhonora> I was a week ago old when I learned about tab.
[20:40:24] <captainhonora> <aside>
You can use TAB key to autocomplete file names and more!
</aside>
[20:44:15] <miro5001> Every day is a good day to learn
[20:50:44] <captainhonora> Ah, autocomplete does not work here?
[20:50:45] <captainhonora> > <@miro5001:matrix.org> It will be hard to type all of it 😅

ended up being easier than autocomplete lmao
[20:50:46] <captainhonora> I typed 2 and hit tab it would not autocomplete
[20:50:50] <captainhonora> Ok backup restore in progress! Thanks for tips
[20:50:50] <captainhonora> Is computing like French. C'est une exception?
[20:50:57] <captainhonora> If there are special characters appended to some info messages in the log is that indicative of a problem with UTF8 or something?

ĆÇǑâŠ
[20:50:58] <captainhonora> french and croatian letters
[20:51:01] <captainhonora> Everything else seemingly going well.
[20:51:02] <miro5001> Which logs?
[20:51:04] <captainhonora> Info:
[20:51:05] <captainhonora> I assume it's not scandinavian nextcloud at ikea it's a bug.
[20:51:05] <captainhonora> some of them have random two or three special characters added as a bug
[20:51:05] <captainhonora> Restoring NextcloudÔÇŠ
[20:51:06] <captainhonora> ok now how to connect it to the same ynh.fr free tld as the previous server we are restoring backup from?
[20:51:06] <captainhonora> Sucess! restoration completed
[20:51:11] <miro5001> You remember the password used to register that subdomain?
[20:53:39] <captainhonora> Between me and the free tld project yeah? I wrote it down somewhere I have to find it
[20:53:46] <miro5001> The restore should have taken care of it
Check your domains list `yunohost domain list`
[21:34:39] <captainhonora> ok it's still there
[22:00:09] <captainhonora> Should I post the output diagnostics here or no need?
[22:46:08] <captainhonora> Also how can I upgrade system package kernel if apt upgrade and yunohost's update system didn't fix an addressed security vulenerability?
[22:46:12] <captainhonora> need 6.1.106-3 ==> 6.1.170-3
[22:46:15] <miro5001> Just share the link created by the share button
[22:46:17] <captainhonora> https://paste.yunohost.org/raw/ubotitusuv
[22:46:20] <captainhonora> my first priority is addressing the security vulnerability then I'll open the ports.
[22:46:43] <captainhonora> I'm glad yunopaste is anonymized because any troll in the chat could pwn my server right now.
[22:46:51] <miro5001> `yunohost tools update `
Then
`yunohost tools upgrade system `
After that you have to reboot your server
`reboot `
[22:46:59] <captainhonora> Thank you!
[22:47:04] <captainhonora> I had done all this via the webadmin but forgot to reboot
[22:51:39] <captainhonora> That fixed it. Now moving on to port exposure. Hopefully I can manage with the documentation from here.
[22:52:01] <captainhonora> Is it just a matter of adding the yunohost local IP to my router firewall?
[22:52:29] <captainhonora> Success, the server is back and now just have to regenerate SSH for my team and we are back.
Thanks for the support.
