After friendica virtual image installation, if I visit the friendica server IP with my browser, I obtain an error because the page doesn't exist. There is some port to visit specifically?

reconfigure the network interface in the virtual box that it gets accessible for you. As far as I know there are 3 different modes. I would prefer the briding mode (binds the virtual nic as a new device to your existing network on the host system).

Nickname in Datenbank ändern
@Friendica Support
Hallo allerseits,

entsteht irgendein Schaden, wenn ich in der Datenbank den Nickname eines Benutzers ändere?
Was macht das bei den Kontakten?
Wäre das guter Stil oder geht sowas garnicht?
Von Haus aus vorgesehen ist es nicht, naja, und vielleicht ist das ja auch gut so.
Gibt es dann vielleicht die Möglichkeit, die Daten des einen Nutzers (Kontakte, Beiträge, Einstellungen) zu einem zweiten Nutzer mit dem gewünschten Nickname zu kopieren. uimport bietet dieses nicht - habe ich schon versucht.

Gruß!

You also may need to verify that the sender address doesn't accept email because if it's replied to it could leak private conversations to unknown people.

This must be a headache of instance administrator :-)

It was configurable in times gone by but this ended up being abused

How?

they need to be made harder for spambots

things like:

adding extra fields users are not required to fill in
(how bots fill them in provides useful clues)
.. especially hidden fields or fields humans don't normally enter anything into.
(a lot of bots try to put something in every field they find)

also they often seem to make use of text near the fields (and labels) to work out what to enter so deliberately swapping around the field names in the form markup might also be an idea. (obviously with the corresponding changes back end)

I personally hate captchas so am inclined to try all sorts of other tricks to trip up rego bots.

also for anything to do with registration its probably a good idea to use different templates, paths/filenames, etc on each site
and definitely avoid putting a rego form where any popular CMS has it!

Ach so, ...

Da kommt mir gerade ein verunsichernder Gedanke: Ich habe ursprünglich Friendica von Hand installiert.
Da ich aber das update via git viel cooler finde, habe ich, Olivers Wiki folgend, F. nochmal installiert. Dabei wurde der Ordner html erzeugt, aus dem ich alle Dateien des Musters .gi* in mein eigentliches Verzeichnis kopiert habe (bauernschlau wie ich bin...*grmpf*). Danach habe ich eben erfolgreich (?) 'git pull' angewendet.
Vermutlich ist das aber ziemlich gemogelt, oder?! Wobei ich eben im Gegensatz zu vorhin eine Fehlermeldung erhalten habe, weil es eine Datei nicht überschreiben wollte.

Wie arbeitet 'git pull'?
Tobias
1 month ago
Keine Ahnung wie git genau funktioniert. Aber im Prinzip schaut es sich die bekannten Dateien bei dir auf dem System und im Repository an. Wenn im Repository eine Datei neuer ist und auf deinem System nicht geändert wurde kann sie aus dem Repository geholt und gespeichert werden. Gibt es eine neuere Datei, die bei dir auf dem System verändert wurde, dann meckert git und bricht ab, damit du entscheiden kannst wie du mit den Dateien verfahren möchtest.

Wenn du nur die *git* Dateien kopiert hast, dann ist das nur eine halbe Sache denke ich. Du müsstest auch noch alle anderen Dateien drüber schieben. Danach könnte das "git pull" ohne Probleme funktionieren (dann sollte es ja ein komplettes git-Repository sein).

Solange die .htconfig.php und die Daten in der MySQL Datenbank da sind, sollte deiner ~friendica ~friendica Installation auch wiederherstellbar sein ;-)

Forum pages and server space
@Friendica Support @Friendica Developers @TupambaeNet Tutorial

Hi their.
Just some questions/considerations about the forum pages.
One of the things I'm considering is to maintain forum pages for the community. Actually the only important thing not to lose is the site name (as happened with friendica support forums). You always can connect/reconnect to the people who share your interest's using forums easily. From that point of view #forumpages are much more accurate to sort interests and to know other people than #tags. Actually as tags depend on the own site server information but friendica is more likely a self hosting community tags lose part of their value.

Or you could do it the way we deal with forums in general - the forum is your contact. Anybody posting to it is the forum's contact. Everything works normally except the top-level post, which becomes a "wall-to-wall" post, since it wasn't written by your contact, but was posted to your contact's page by somebody else.

This is one of the things that prompted me to leave friendica.eu. What I'm seeing as a bug has now appeared on disunitedstates.com.

When someone posts something to one of the groups I've set up, I get an email which includes a line like:

Please visit DisUnitedStates.com to view and/or reply to the conversation.
https://disunitedstates.com/notify/view/2058


When I click on the latter link, I expect to be taken to the conversation. Instead, I'm landing on my profile page. And if I want to get to the conversation I either have to click "manage" and switch to the group in question, or I have to find it in my network stream, where it might be ancient history.

That's not a bug.

When you're logged in as one account, you can't see notifications for a different account. You're a delegate of the forum, you're not the same account.

You could potentially do something to compare email addresses, or check delegation rights for these notifications...but switching which account a user is presently logged in as seems a very bad idea.

Friendica on HPR
Hello @Friendica Support,

I had the idea for some time now to do a #HPR episode about Friendica. Not as a tutorial how to set it up or anything. I think this isn't the kind of thing which would get people excited about Friendica.

I'd rather do a show about the history, the (security) features, and generally the good stuff in ~f. But the problem with this idea: I have absolutely now clue about any of this.

So I thought I could make this as a interview with some Friendica devs (maybe even @Mr. X would be in?) who know about the tech behind friendica and how it came to be.

Would anyone of you guys be in? More or less the only requirement is that you have a microphone and mumble installed (and of course know the answers to my questions ;) ).

@Friendica Support, is there a reason why Personal Notes show up in the network stream? I created one earlier, and I'm pretty sure it's a personal note no one else can see, but it makes me feel paranoid to see it in the network area. :-0

Your personal notes are post with acl sets to "Nobody can see". Your network page shows all post related to you: your contacts public messages, private messages, your public messages and your private messages. So, also your personal notes.

Trouble Installing Friendica Red
Hey all,

I've been trying to set up a Friendica Red server for about a week now, but the installer keeps giving me a 500 error after I hit "Next" on the "Site settings" page. Any further requests to the Red server after that will also give 500 errors.

Apache does not log any errors when the installer runs, although repeated requests afterwards will produce a error message about hitting some sort of memory cap (around 134 MB).

The installer page lists all its requirements as satisfied, and I've also tried installing a normal Friendica server on the same system (actually a cloned virtual box image), which works flawlessly. At this point, I'm totally stumped.

Anyone have any thoughts as to the cause of this? Thanks in advance!

Help with Friendica's wordpress connector

I also double-checked the username and password and I was able to log in to my blog successfully.
I just don't know what goes wrong and where should I start debugging my problem, is there written logs anywhere? I checked apache_log and php_log but there's no trace of the issue.

Allgemein würde ich in dem Fall sagen, dass sich an die entsprechenden RFCs (z.B. RFC 2821) gehalten werden muss.
Dort heißt es:
A domain name that is not in FQDN form is no more than a local alias. Local aliases MUST NOT appear in any SMTP transaction.

"zeus" ist eben kein FQDN und somit nicht erlaubt. Eine solche Absendeadresse würde z.B. auch von postfix mittels "reject_non_fqdn_sender" abgelehnt werden. D.h. es können auch sehr leicht Probleme bei weiteren Providern auftreten.

Is there any existing feature of Friendica allow me to do that? Or any addon?

maybe installing something like cygwin might help for stuff not working directly in windows?

- http://www.cygwin.com/



apache in xampp can be also configured to use a separate php install to execute scripts as cgi

probably won't be as fast but if the issue you are having with openssl in php doesn't happen when running php scripts from the command line than this could be a workaround.

Mystery solved: The error message was coming from the old server of my provider, where the friendica installation was still running, but without proper database. That's why changes on my actual system didn't change anything.

Register first user but receive no mail
Hi Friendica Supporters,

after the successful - nearly successful - installation of Friendica on my Uberspace and the first visit I registered my first user with the admin e-mail-address but did not receive any e-mail (and password).
The nick name IS registered so I can't register this nick with a different address. But even through password reset I don't receive any e-mail.
I searched my spam folder - nothing. I registered my current user Geodie and all worked well.
Can anyone guess what the problem is (sorry, sounds more german than english). I'm a little 404 (dict.cc-translation for ratlos/buffled,clueless,helpless ;-) ).

Kind regards!

Seriously, @Friendica Theme Developers and @Friendica Support , somebody has to do something about the absurd situation with templates. I mean, ffs! Using a Python update tool to generate Smarty3 templates from some "internal" template engine files?.. WAT?

I am trying to write a new theme, and this is simply absurd. I want to use simple PHP instead of this completely crazy contraption. How do I do that?

we could add a check at init, print a notice if smarty3 dir is not writable and kill the script. And empty white page with a useful notice on what happened an how to fix, could limit bug reports? :-)

@Friendica Support My ostatus subscribers do get my @-replies but my wallposts aren't sent to ostatus subscribers. This should work, right? What do I look for in the logs? I didn't see anything unusual.

Hello everyone. I got 2 problems after updating my instance to latest git, and they both connected with "vier" theme:

1. I can't upload pics in tinymce editor. I can do it on other themes (diabook, smoothly).
2. What is that "percents" on screenshot: http://ompldr.org/vaHZ6cQ/w00t.png ?

Since it is working for me I need someone who can analyse for me the source of the problem - or could help me reproducing it.

Which operating system are you using?

limit_body_size() doesn't work properly.
As some of you may recall I was getting crashes in my /network after importing some very big e-mails.

And Fabio added limit_body_size to onepoll.php in order to fix the problem.

It worked in the sense that limit_body_size is called for every imported e-mail. But none of them were getting limited, so my /network was still crashing.

I looked at the limit_body_size() in include/items.php, and it seems max length was not being set properly. No matter what max_import_size I set in my .htconfig none of the posts were being limited.
Changing
$maxlen = get_max_import_size();
to
// $maxlen = get_max_import_size();
$maxlen = 10000;
fixes the problem.

limit_body_size() is the only place get_max_import_size() is ever called, and hence the only place the max_import_size variable is being read. So shouldn't it be defined in include/items.php instead of .htconfig.php? That seems to make more sense to me anyway...

It is set exactly like that in .htconfig.php and it was not working.

and I see I was wrong about include/items.php being the only place the max_import_size variable is being read. It is being read in one other place; in include/api.php where it defaults to 200000.

get_max_import_size() defaults to 0, and is only used in include/items.php.

I suggest getting rid of get_max_import_size() and getting the max_import_size variable in include/items.php the same way it's gotten in include/api.php, only letting it default to 10000 instead of 200000.

I'll try it out and see if it works for me.

It works.
changing:
$maxlen = get_max_import_size();
to
$maxlen = (string) (($a->config['max_import_size']) ? $a->config['max_import_size'] : 10000);
also fixes the problem

anyone know what could be the cause of those php-fpm segfault errors I'm seeing in syslog?

seems to be a lot of them

(I don't think this is a Friendica issue but there might be others here who are using php-fpm and have already investigated such errors)

@Friendica Support i know i tried this before but i can get friendica to work on android in mustard and the friendica app but I cannot get it to work in pidgin with the statusnet plugin. It consistently gives me an authentication error. If pidgin is not pulling the certificate might that be the reason it wont connect?

I just tried, and it seems to work, though I am likely on a somewhat old version. Are you using the bare domain as the server for the account (i.e. no "https://")?

in pidgin the user name is 'marxistvegan' and the domain with no https:// friends.mayfirst.org I would think it would work but always an authentication error

@Friendica Support Does it cause a lot of confusion if I activate the post-to-identi.ca plugin and still follow the ostatus contacts, too?

There is a #friendica #addon to connect friendica with #linkedin?
