I'm still getting the error "/app/config/glance.yml is a directory".

 

The Container path is /app/config and the Host path is /mnt/user/appdata/glance/config and glance.yml is a file not a directory.

 

I'm installing this for the first time.

I was having the same issue, what worked for me was to remove the path, and then add a new one with the container path /app/config and the host path /mnt/user/appdata/glance/. Must have been something in the original path that was causing that issue, who knows.

Has anyone gotten the docker-containers widget to work? I included the docker.sock in the configuration and gave a container the labels as an example. Nevertheless, Glance shows “No containers available to show”

 

My glance config:

Thanks, that worked for me. I replaced the path variable in the Unraid template, using the same values, and that fixed it.

If anyone is having trouble getting this going again, there is a new variable called MY_SECRET_TOKEN that must be added to your template or the container won't start.

You can see that in the .env file for the docker compose for this container.

 

https://github.com/glanceapp/docker-compose-template/blob/main/root/.env

 

I also added the /app/assets folder where you can optionally add a user.css folder to customize the look more.

i was not able to reproduce .....

The container start with or  without this Variable present
the presence do not seem do do anything either....

tested with  version Glance v0.7.7

 

I update the template to reflect the new change for the config file and assets
 

You should update the "additional info" as well, because it's saying to put the glance.yml file in the app folder, not the app/config folder. :)

Hey, updated yesterday to Unraid 7.0.0 and my daily appdata backup failed for glance's /etc/timezone mount. The container works fine, but /etc/timezone seems to be missing on my system. Has anyone else seen something like that?

@ZappyZap did you have any success on this? I am still getting the error every time I am running the appdata backup. 

Here is a workaround:

image.png.a92de6ee99308ec68d9a3154144429fb.png

 

As I understand it the /etc/timezone contains a timezone name, which should be the path to a file relative to /usr/share/zoneinfo. /etc/localtime is a symbolic link that is pointing to same file under /usr/share/zoneinfo/.

With the Unraid 7.0.0 update, Unraid has removed that particular legacy path (/etc/timezone).

Glance and the clock widget work fine for me and the error in appdata backup has been solved with this workaround.

 

@ZappyZap It would be cool if you could look into if the Docker Path Timezone is still required.

 

Cheers

Nothing of above worked for me until I added another variable: 

CHANGE_DETECTION_TOKEN

and set value to

123456 (probably arbitrary)

 

Now it finally works again.

for some reason downloaded icons that i put in the assets folder does not show. I tried diffrent icon paths and even copied the image to the config path aswell. you will see below all the paths i tried.

widgets:
          - type: monitor
            cache: 1m
            title: Services
            sites:
              - title: Plex
                url: http://192.168.1.17:32400
                icon: /assets/plex.png
                icon: app/assets/plex.png
                icon: plex.png
