This is Hacker Public Radio Episode 3873 for Wednesday, 7 June 2023.
|
|
Today's show is entitled Next Cloud Instance Updating.
|
|
It is hosted by Toad Jet and is about three minutes long.
|
|
It carries an explicit flag.
|
|
This summary is Automatic Updating of Next Cloud Installation.
|
|
Toad Jet again.
|
|
Been a while since I put a podcast up and I heard Ken's call for shows.
|
|
So I figured I had to get one done.
|
|
This is a follow-up to a previous one I did.
|
|
Talking about how to automatically update your next cloud surfer itself
|
|
and not just the applications.
|
|
I had a previous episode for updating the applications
|
|
and I'll have a link in the show notes for that.
|
|
A couple things about my environment.
|
|
It's a headless server.
|
|
It's running Next Cloud on Fedora 38.
|
|
Apache web server.
|
|
Next Cloud runs as a Apache user.
|
|
And apps are being updated according to the previous episode.
|
|
Episode 3297, which is automatically update Next Cloud Apps via Cron.
|
|
So I wanted to keep my environment up to date
|
|
without having to deal with it all the time.
|
|
The server itself is backed up and so I'm not worried about one of the updates
|
|
breaking things because worst case I can go to one of my backups to restore that.
|
|
So what I ended up doing is setting up a Cron job.
|
|
Similar to what I did for the app update for updating Next Cloud itself.
|
|
The couple of key things was I was reading through the documentation.
|
|
Found you had to do special things to enable the ACP command line updates.
|
|
And you also had to schedule for no interactions because you're not able to interact.
|
|
You're not able to be there while it's running.
|
|
I've got a copy of the Cron job in there, but my Cron job is set up.
|
|
So it has mails to me the results of whatever it does for the updates.
|
|
It also has samples in there from my Next Cloud update or the Cron job
|
|
for the Next Cloud that's running the updates that are running for applications
|
|
and then the updates for the Next Cloud itself.
|
|
If you look at the timing on there, I was careful in the timing
|
|
because I wanted to make sure that the update for Next Cloud completed
|
|
before it did the application updates.
|
|
So it's running at one o'clock in the morning on Sundays
|
|
and the application update runs at five o'clock.
|
|
So the one o'clock should be done, have everything applied and be completed
|
|
before the application updates occur right afterwards.
|
|
This happens, like I said, once a week.
|
|
It sends me an email when everything is done, letting me know all's gone well
|
|
or what's went wrong.
|
|
So hopefully this will be helpful for you
|
|
and if all of this will be documented in the show notes.
|
|
Thank you.
