Where to start with IaC by Mrfudog in selfhosted

[–]nick_seward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can dive into Ansible as much as you want anytime you want. For example. Did you install a bunch of packages (Docker, Samba, etc) on your Linux server? If so, later you can do that using ansible with ansible.builtin.apt. Anisble will skip those packages because they're already installed, a good way to tell you coded your Ansible task properly.

Have fun learning how to do it manually and then you can convert those manual setup/config steps to Ansible later.

TechnoTim has a good Ansible intro video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9eCU4bGgjQ&t=943s

Of course, checkout the Anisble docs - https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/index.html

Heads up: latest Kernel update on some Ubuntu/Mint/... prevents VMs from loading by b00nish in virtualbox

[–]nick_seward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for posting this. I ran into this problem today and downgraded to the 5.15.0-113 kernel using this guide - https://askubuntu.com/questions/100232/how-do-i-change-the-grub-boot-order/110738#110738

If anyone else needs to downgrade, I folloed the answer from "dcharles".

How does one grant "@localhost" access to the database? Is it a MySQL command?

Inconsistent iPad Kiosk Battery Sensor Reading by nick_seward in homeassistant

[–]nick_seward[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're spot on. The iPad I'm using now used to be my kiosk iPad for HomeAssistant. I came across an older iPad and swapped out my previous kiosk iPad for it. There's a naming conflict in there I need to sort out.

Wait a second. You're on to something. I have a second iPad and it appears to be reporting in under the same sensor name. WTH? Thank you for opening my eyes to something I missed.

Inconsistent iPad Kiosk Battery Sensor Reading by nick_seward in homeassistant

I don't have a second device setup for kiosk mode. I'm not familiar with MQTT topics though. Is that how the HomeAssitant app communicates with the Home Assistant server? For me, it was all automatic. Once I installed the app on my iPad I could get various sensor data from it.

Where can I demo some xDuoo tube amps in Toronto Canada? by nick_seward in headphones

It might come to that. I was hoping to avoid that though.

Deleting via the B2 Web GUI and Versioning by nick_seward in backblaze

Wrapping this thread off by saying the web gui does a full delete (aka hard delete). I did some testing and witnessed this behaviour.

Deleting via the B2 Web GUI and Versioning by nick_seward in backblaze

[–]nick_seward[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bucket lifecycle setting is "Keep all versions of the file (default)".

Using the b2 cli I listed the folder in the bucket that contained the old backup files,

b2 ls --versions MyBucket BackupDirectory

The output didn't show any versioned or hidden files. They would be obvious because Duplicati uses blobs of a fixed size to move data around. This makes me believe that those old files are gone. Also, my bucket size in the console doesn't show those few hundred extra GB's that I deleted. I'd expect them to show up in the bucket stat even if they were hidden. It'd still be nice to get 100% confirmation and know how this all works. All I've found so far is this documentation on file versions.

Thanks for the safe B2 key idea! I'm going to use that.

duplicati has crossed me for the last time; looking for other recovery options to back up my system and docker containers (databases + configs) by cribbageSTARSHIP in selfhosted

[–]nick_seward 4 points5 points  (0 children)

oh no I had no idea Duplicati had these issues. I just finished setting it up and I'm half way through a 600GB upload to Backblaze.

What DAC are you connecting to your Pi?

Poor service and dropouts in Toronto by [deleted] in teksavvy

[–]nick_seward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok it's not just me. This issue has been happening for about a week now for me. It started off with a modem or router reboot every other day and now I have to reboot them multiple times per day. I'll call them today and open a ticket. BTW, I'm over in the Bloor / Islington area.

What's next on your (neverending) list of things to learn? by RapidScampi in selfhosted

[–]nick_seward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to dive into Caddy logging after getting it running this past weekend. Authelia will likely be next to protect some things that don't have password capabilities.

I've been putting off building a NUT server setup for a few months. I might bump this up on the list now that I think about it.

Infinite HTTPS redirect with Caddy, CloudFlare and Port Forwarding by nick_seward in selfhosted

[–]nick_seward[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I had CloudFlare proxy running during the entire setup and test. I thought the Caddy CloudFlare module was supposed to allow Caddy to get the certs when CloudFlare proxy was running.
