jdoss / ppngx Goto Github PK

Hello,

Just tried your ppngx script which is great, works good on RHEL 9 ;)

Since `podman-compose exists, one can adapt the paperless-ngx original install script to run without too much hassle.
I am using podman whenever I can because of the EL ecosystem.

What's the advantage of your script over the original docker-compose setup ?
I do like systemd unit files too for containers, since it makes things "manageable" and easily monitorable.

Are there any other nice advantages I didn't realise ?
Best regards.

I am following the instruction that you provide to have systemd autostarting Paperless on boot. However, I received first a deprecation warning when running podman generate systemd --new --files --container-prefix='' --name paperless:

DEPRECATED command:
It is recommended to use Quadlets for running containers and pods under systemd.

And then, when running systemctl enable --user --now pod-paperless.service I get the following error:

Job for pod-paperless.service failed because the service did not take the steps required by its unit configuration.
See "systemctl --user status pod-paperless.service" and "journalctl --user -xeu pod-paperless.service" for details.

Any idea on what could be the problem?

First thing first - thank you for this little script which has made my life much more straight forward than it might have been!

But, I realise this is not a complicated question and I'm sure I should be able to answer it:-
What is the default username and password for Paperless?

I'm having no difficulty with the interface for SFTPGo and the credentials I entered in start.sh - on both ports 2022 and 8022 or accessing the Paperless server, but what's the login? Should I have added the PAPERLESS_ADMIN_USER and PAPERLESS_ADMIN_PASSWORD to start.sh?

I am trying to set the following environment variable with its value:

PAPERLESS_OCR_USER_ARGS={"invalidate_digital_signatures": true}

I need to import many digitally signed documents, so I need to tell the system to just invalidate the signatures. If I have properly understood from my readings, this will keep also a copy of the original, so I should be able to consult my documents and still keep them valid.

Any way, I was trying to set the environment variable with the -e option in you start.sh script, but I am not able to make it work.

I am just adding the line within the Starting paperless block. What am I doing wrong for it to not set the environment variable?

First off, great script and I'm not sure if this is an issue or not. But I don't see where in your script you are configuring the web "superuser" so you can log into the site.

Hi!

Thanks for this script, it's been working pretty well!

I was wondering what you did to back up.

I was thinking of either running the document exporter, or backing up each podman volume + the version.

I was wondering what you did, and if you had a script for it?

Thanks!

Tested on Debian 12 Proxmox VM

podman generate systemd --new --files --container-prefix='' --name paperless
