How to configure YunoHost apps

Some apps require editing the config or .env file to configure app options.

Over YunoHost the app configutation files are usually located at:
/var/www/app_name/
or
/home/yunohost.app/app_name/

You can SFTP to that directory and edit the configuration file. Check out the app documention for the config file name and parameters.

After editing the config file, you may need to restart the app. For that, go to Tools > Services > App Name and then click on “Restart“.

How to install FFmpeg on CentOS cPanel server

How to install FFmpeg on CentOS cPanel server:

Step 1: Update the system
sudo yum install epel-release -y
sudo yum update -y

Step 2: Install the Nux Dextop YUM repo
There are no official FFmpeg rpm packages for CentOS for now. Instead, you can use a 3rd-party YUM repo, Nux Dextop, to finish the job.

On CentOS 7, you can install the Nux Dextop YUM repo with the following commands:

sudo rpm --import http://li.nux.ro/download/nux/RPM-GPG-KEY-nux.ro
sudo rpm -Uvh http://li.nux.ro/download/nux/dextop/el7/x86_64/nux-dextop-release-0-5.el7.nux.noarch.rpm

For CentOS 6, you need to install another release:

sudo rpm --import http://li.nux.ro/download/nux/RPM-GPG-KEY-nux.ro
sudo rpm -Uvh http://li.nux.ro/download/nux/dextop/el6/x86_64/nux-dextop-release-0-2.el6.nux.noarch.rpm

Step 3: Install FFmpeg and FFmpeg development packages
sudo yum install ffmpeg ffmpeg-devel -y

Step 4: Test drive
Confirm the installation of FFmpeg:

ffmpeg

CyberPanel: Reverse Proxy to Docker Container

How to Reverse Proxy Traffic to Docker Container on CyberPanel:
https://community.cyberpanel.net/t/reverse-proxy-traffic-to-docker-container-on-cyberpanel/30644

Setup Reverse Proxy:
Open and edit: /usr/local/lsws/conf/httpd_config.conf

extprocessor dockerbackend {
  type                    proxy
  address                 127.0.0.1:8080
  maxConns                100
  pcKeepAliveTimeout      60
  initTimeout             60
  retryTimeout            0
  respBuffer              0
}

Here “dockerbackend” is a referance name to use later and “8080” is the docker container port.

Use Rewrite Rules to Proxy traffic to your Container:
Now create a website and create the following a .htaccess rewrite rule there.
REWRITERULE ^(.*)$ HTTP://dockerbackend/$1 [P]

If you want to force redirect SSL then use the following:

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
REWRITERULE ^(.*)$ http://dockerbackend/$1 [P]
