Hi !Friendica Support

I set up a Friendica server couple days ago. We have seen couple times a problem where an image attached to a post is visible only to the author of the post. This doesn't happen all the time or for all the images, but has happened to multiple users. If the image is shown broken once, it will stay broken. All the users are on the same server.

- As far as I know, this has happened only in private posts.
- Same person has posted both an image I can see and an image I can't see.
- As the author can see the image in the post, the data definitely is on the server and even accessible from the UI.
- Editing the post and re-adding the image didn't fix the problem.

The error message shown when trying to open a broken image is:

Not Found

The Photo with id 1181454791679d39a348725148987421 is not available.

Server info:
This is Friendica, version 2024.12 that is running at the web location capybara.community. The database version is 1576/1576, the post update version is 1550/1550.

Any ideas what could be wrong or how to continue debugging this?

(I'll be able to investigate this now for couple hours. After that I'll have to come back to this on Monday.)

I had my first-ever server crash of my-place.social. This is in syslog:

show variables like 'max_connections'; shows 151 max_connections.

I did: SET GLOBAL max_connections = 200;

I also edited /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf and set max_connections = 200

Is this too high? Too low? Did I do this the correct way?

Thank you!

Thanks!

Level Up

So come out.
You have been waiting long enough.
You're done with all the talk talk talk with nothing on the table.
It's time to come on out.
There will be no sign from above.
You'll only hear the knock knock knock of your own heart as signal.
If you are afraid, come out.
If you are awake, come out.
Come out and level up.
Begin again.
Dynamite the dam on the flow.
Your body feels the tock tock tock of time as it hammers.
Lord we are all cinders
From a fire burning long ago,
But here it is the knock knock knock of your own heart that matters.
If you are afraid, come forth.
If you are alone, come forth now.
Everybody here has loved and lost,
So level up and love again.
Call it any name you need.
Call it your 2.0, your rebirth, whatever –
So long as you can feel it all,
So long as all your doors are flung wide.
Call it your day #1 in the rest of forever.
If you are afraid, give more.
If you are alive, give more now.
Everybody here has seams and scars.
So what. level up.
Let your faith die.
Bring your wonder.
Yes, you are only one.
No, it is not enough
But if you lift your eyes, I am your brother.
And this is all we need.
And this is where we start.
This is the day we greet.
This is the day, no other.

I checked my bin permissions:
4 drwxrwxr-x 3 www-data www-data 4096 Feb 20 13:39

Is this where I run the command you noted?

YOU noted that I cannot run as root. Well, I always did. I will stop running as admin.

When I did execute the command, I get this result:

PHP Warning: include(/var/www/html/config/local.config.php): Failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/www/html/src/Core/Config/Util/ConfigFileManager.php on line 362

The first few were PHP warning. Is this why you said to change it to run as PHP?

Thanks

New error message (of FRIO) about a folder created by the user root.

I haven't found the extensive conversation about this problem with @Hypolite Petovan yet but I'm quite sure that I changed all folders to ownership of user www-data before 28th of November of the smarty folder. Actually there was another conversation about ownership of folders and I changed all folders to be owned by root except storage and view that day on 02:45hs, the new folder owned by root at /view/smarty3/compiled/ like stated below was created on 3:50hs.

As for what I remember of all the conversations this shouldn't have happened.
