!Friendica Support This is the Smarty thing, right? I find the error message (in the shell) ambiguous, is it complaining that it doesn't have access to the directory, or that it does but isn't supposed to?

@Lorraine Lee No, in this case Smarty works but the CSS is missing.
@Lorraine Lee

Now I seem to have the CSS (although in my other one there's a picture).

Now the problem is /register is 404

Lorraine Lee  
`/.well-known/host-meta` is also 404, but there is no `.well-known` directory.

@Lorraine Lee Are you using Apache or nginx? In the first case, you have to copy the .htaccess-dist file in the root Friendica directory to .htaccess. In the second, you have to setup a vserver in the nginx configuration, you can see an example in the mods folder
@Lorraine Lee

Apache. `.htaccess` is copied from `.htaccess-dist`, as per instructions.

is it on a subdomain? (like friendica.bla.blub ) just guessing..
then maybe a setting in .htaccess
Lorraine Lee
Lorraine Lee  
No subdomain only top level domain.

I had similar problems last week - for me it was a problem with the resolver name servers.

@Lorraine Lee What I am noticing is that your instance is super-slow?

Oof! Seemingly had everything working (as is far from the case on the shared hosting astoundingteam dot com #friendica instance) but now "No space left on device." `df` and `df i` show plenty of space and inodes on all devices (less than 6% usage in all cases). Is there some counter somewhere in the system (Ubuntu 22.04/Apache 2.4.52/MariaDB 10.6.12/PHP 8.1.2-1ubuntu2.11) that maybe sometimes doesn't decrement when blocks or inodes free up?

@Lorraine Lee@Lorraine Lee Is there a disk space quota for individual users?
@Lorraine Lee @Lorraine Lee

@Lorraine Lee So df is not showing any mount point with 100% usage? Here it was the case with /tmp (tmpfs) which ran full by Proton (a WINE adoption for Steam gaming platform).

The ENOSPC problem seems to have resolved itself, but now, new -dev version, and I get

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class "Friendica\Core\Logger\Util\Introspection" not found in /var/www/html/static/dependencies.config.php:192

@Josephine Michelle Draus@Lorraine Lee@Lorraine Lee Please run bin/composer.phar install --no-dev from the base of your Friendica folder.

@Lorraine Lee@Josephine Michelle Draus@Lorraine Lee Do you mean you still see the same error? What's the output of git status?

Just nuked and reinstalled. Seems the database is where the instance lives.

@Lorraine Lee Careful with reinstalling at the same sub-domain, you need to backup your database because of the private keys in there. Also watch out for files in config directory.

This is way, way under all the limits. Perhaps traffic spikes lead to spikes in inode consumption somehow. I'm aware of an issue that apparently has to do with semaphores. https://github.com/friendica/friendica/issues/8200 Right now the instance seems to be operating normally, seems to have righted itself somehow.

@Lorraine Lee Friendica itself may generate temporary files starting with http- in your PHP's temporary directory (here outside htdocs, alsways and highly recommended). It also can write there the friendica.log file which with a high debug level can easily produce a very large file. On productive/life systems I would recommend maximum WARNING level (and errors included).

@tom s@Lorraine Lee If you need some setting advises, I use these in #FPM pool's php.ini file:
[f.haeder.net]
chdir = /
group = www-data
listen.allowed_clients = 127.0.0.1
listen.group = www-data
listen.mode = 0660
listen.owner = www-data
listen = /var/run/apache2/php7.4-fpm_friendica.sock
php_admin_flag[log_errors] = on
php_admin_value[error_log] = /var/www/.../phptmp/fpm-php.friendica.log
php_admin_value[memory_limit] = 128M
php_admin_value[session.save_path] = /var/www/.../phptmp
pm = dynamic
pm.max_children = 10000
pm.max_requests = 10000
pm.max_spare_servers = 15
pm.min_spare_servers = 5
pm.status_path = /pool-status
request_slowlog_timeout = 20s
slowlog = /var/log/php-fpm/$pool-slow.log
user = vuXXXX

So for my instance 128M is totally enough. :-)

@Lorraine Lee@Josephine Michelle Draus@Lorraine Lee Thanks, please run the following command to reset your local changes back to the develop branch:
git checkout -- .

And run the Composer command again afterwards.
@Josephine Michelle Draus @Lorraine Lee @Lorraine Lee

@Lorraine Lee Run a git checkout -- . each time in your deployment process to be sure that you have unmodified (maybe only access rights have changed?) and write for yourself a deployment script like I have done.
@Lorraine Lee

@Lorraine Lee And please show us a git diff where you ran the git status command. Your local configuration file is not shown to us in diff, don't worry. Please see the .gitignore file.

@MS noma@Josephine Michelle Draus@Lorraine Lee@Lorraine Lee I understand the place you're coming from, but it also would be nice if Mastodon had user-defined filters that could do what you are asking like Friendica does, it would make those requests superfluous.

Where are the user defined filters? Settings? Addons?
Hypolite Petovan

@Lorraine Lee They are in addons, you have to activate them first from the admin. Here's the list of addons that provide content filters:
  • Advanced Content Filter: Expression-based.
  • Language filter: Post language-based.
  • NSFW: Keyword-based.
  • Show More: Character count-based.
  • Showmore Dynamic: Post height-based.
