[mobilizon] Planned guide after successful installation

[moan0s]

There are two viable installation strategies for Mobilizon

Installation via Release and via source

Both ways of installation have to be adapted to uberspace and currently present problems. In the following I will decribe them and the easier way will land in the lab

Release

After downloading the release a configuration file should be created in this step

Running the adjusted command fails due to a missing dependency

[isabell@stardust mobilizon]$ ./bin/mobilizon_ctl instance gen --output config.exs --output-psql setup_db.psql
/home/isabell/mobilizon/erts-12.3.1/bin/beam.smp: error while loading shared libraries: libtinfo.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Can a user easily install ncurses to solve this?

Source

The installation via source fails when using yarn run build

We suspect that uberspace automatically kills the process as it uses to much resources.

[isabell@stardust js]$ NODE_BUILD_MEMORY=512 yarn run build
yarn run v1.22.19
$ yarn run build:assets && yarn run build:pictures
$ vue-cli-service build --report
All browser targets in the browserslist configuration have supported ES module.
Therefore we don't build two separate bundles for differential loading.

Any help in solving these issues is appreciated :)

Maybe related to the build from source error: TypeStrong/fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin#674

ive found following in the umami guide:

In newer versions, sometimes the build process fails without any errors in the next build stage. This is due to Uberspace killing the process for needing to much memory. If this happens, you will not be able to start the app – it will say Error: Could not find a production build in the ‘/home/isabell/umami/.next […]’ directory. Try running the build process via NODE_OPTIONS=--max_old_space_size=512 npm run build --debug to limit the RAM usage and build the app successfully.

Which still leads to following result

NODE_OPTIONS=--max_old_space_size=512 npm run build --debug

but maybe thats a bit more information which could help debugging.

[tburny]

I would really love to try Mobilizon on Uberspace to organize events for my community. Any help here would be highly appreciated.

[xJohnDoe993]

@tburny you can also try Gancio may it meet your requirements.
I didnt try the build process for later versions of Mobilizon on Uberspace but i guess it still doesnt work.
