No, because Rambox-CE was deprecated and this was the time where I also deprecated the container.

 

Look into Ferdi, it's almost the same, at least I think.

Has anyone got a practical solution to opening web links in Thunderbird docker.

Since the docker is using noVNC you cannot copy from the docker to your workstation so interactions are handicapped significantly.

Since the docker doesn't have a browser bundled there is no way to open URLs within.

I've looked for Thunderbird plugins and installed a few browsers from CLI but they won't run within the docker.

Does anyone have a solution to this otherwise I can't use it in replacement of the desktop app. 😢
 

Additional:

Seems there are rate limits applied to the Thunderbird repo.

You can use a VNC client on your local PC and connect to the VNC server which is running inside the container, this will allow you to directly copy past from it.

 

Just add another port entry like that in the template:

(please don't use the port 5900 since this port and the following ports are also used by the VM manager on Unraid so I would recommend that you use something like 5990)

 

This will then allow you to connect to the container with YOURUNRAIDIP:5990 to the containers VNC server directly.

This is done on purpose since this can be a serious risk, malware and so on and I don't want that the database or something inside the container is harmed.

You can use the VNC menu on the left side of the screen as an alternative to copy paste (there is a little clipboard icon that allows you to copy to and from the app that is running inside the container.

I have not applied a rate limit, the rate limit applies to your machine and means that you can only pull 100 containers (from your IP) in six hours.

@ich777 thanks for replying so quickly.

I have it setup through proxy so I can have "web mail" from any device.

Using VNC to connect will be too much friction and the clipboard side tool only works to copy host -> docker not vice versa.

No, this is not true, this allows you to copy to and from the container, I know that because I heavily use my container with the noVNC web client and it works flawlessly.

I use the Thunderbird container as my main mail application.

 

I've also edited my post about the rate limit.

[ados]

omg it was my browser, I had to set allow instead of default ask on clipboard.

Somehow this allowed only 1 direction which tricked me into thinking it was a feature/security issue.

Having a much bigger issue.

Spent nearly 2 hours building message filters and folders to find they are all wiped on reboot.

I don't know why 2 filters have stayed (first 2) but all others vanish on reboot of container.

The folders are still there obviously but the filters will not persist between restarts.

 

Additional info:

Found the cause, due to poor Thunderbird design and not docker.

Thunderbird only saves the settings on window close.

When you access message filters a new window appears unlike other setting navigations.

Any changes in this state are not save until closed, there is no autosave or save button.

You would expect the top right button to close the window any.

However that unmarked grey button is just minimising it and it remains on the bottom bar.

Open the message filter again and it will just unminimise it.

Reboot your docker and the settings since save is where you end up.

Solution is to use browser keys CTRL + W which is the shortcut for close window.

hahah I've definitely not installed 100 dockers in last 6 hours, must have been a glitch because I was able to install it an hour later.

You have to quit Thunderbird from within Thunderbird and not restart the container since if you are simply restarting the container the settings for filters and so on will be wiped.

So to speak click this icon: right next to the search bar and click Quit, this will restart the container and make the settings stick.

Press ESC on your keyboard this will do also the same, I hide the close button because this can lead to serious trouble for some users, closing the main application instead of another window, hope that makes a bit of sense to you (something like that gave me trouble).

Yes, DockerHub is sometimes weird.

 

 

Anyways, glad that you figured it out yourself and that it's working now, at least that the filters stick.

@ich777 - One more question on the OpenVPN container. 

 

I'd like to be able to have one of my Docker containers that get network via the OVPN container to be able to access something on my local 192.168.1.0/24 subnet. 

 

It looks like that isn't possible. Can you suggest a setting that might allow that?

It is: Click

 

I don't use that because I don't want this...

 

Simply create a new variable in the container and add a Variable with the Key: ROUTE and as the Value: 192.168.1.0/24

This should do the trick.

[Merijeek]

Awesome, that did it. Thanks a bunch.

Hey ich777,

 

first of all: thank you for all those docker templates you provide. Really appreciate them!!

Recently I have been working with the LANCache-Prefill template and noticed that for BattleNet and Epic the Parameters are missing (SteamPrefill Parameters are present).
Added the BattleNet one manually now for myself. Will these be added in the future? Is there a way to create some kind of pull request so that I could provide them?

Kind regards
Dustin

You don't need parameters for BattleNet and EpicPrefill anymore, you have to just configure them as for your Steam account and my container will then execute the prefill.

 

This changed a few months back and is also described here how to configure:

Thank you for the report.

 

Please update the container itself, this is now fixed.

Has anyone been using TxAdmin with their fivem server?  Is there a way to have it start on it's on and not keep turning off?  Seems like everytime I check the server is down and I have to run the startup script.

[Kirball]

I am also getting this error when starting my txadmin

Wrong support thread.

It seems that your database is corrupt or at least something is not working properly. I would recommend that you ask about that on the FiveM forums.

It won't turn off on it's own usually, maybe this is related to your database error from above.

[Kirball]

There is a seperate thread for fivem?  That would explain why I couldn't find anything about it here.

The gameserver thread, click on the Container icon and Support. Anyways, this is not a separated thread for FiveM and this seems to be an issue with your installation, as said above, I would strongly recommend that you post that error on the FiveM forums.

 

txadmin is also running just fine and should not end itself automatically, this is the first time I hear that someone has such an issue.

Photoprism docker. I'm trying to replace flickr. Dose this support a public read only view. I looks like you have send out share links... I want to have a read only folder and stream view for anyone much like flickr...?

I have another (hopefully) simple one.  I'm routing a container through OpenVPN-Client with Network Type: None and Extra Parameters: --net=container:OpenVPN-Client.  I've added a port to OpenVPN-Client for my container, and I've opened the relevant port in my firewall directed at my Unraid server).  It's working nicely.  However, I can't seem to port forward through the tunnel to my container.  If I hit my WAN IP and the relevant port, then I can make it in, but it's not forwarding connections from the VPN tunnel.  I tried just a variable for VPNPORT with the same port number, but then I can't access the container at all.  Any thoughts?  I tried setting my router to forward to the container subnet IP (instead of my Unraid server IP), but it wouldn't let me add an IP from that subnet.
