I’m running Debian GNU/Linux buster/sid and FreedomBox version 19.2. FreedomBox is up to date.
I tried creating a community within my server but was met with the error below. In this case, is the admin the hidden “fbx” user? Is it the admin account through which the Matrix Synapse server was installed (think I deleted that user)? Is it supposed to be anyone in the “admin” group? Or is it no one, and this is just a quirk of having it set up on a FreedomBox?
Your information is correct. I had just pieced it all together from the same sources and your post was the confirmation I needed. Thanks!
And indeed, sqlite3 needs to be installed as root. I second your idea to make setting an admin via plinth an option. In the meantime would it be possible to update the documentation with the steps above, as part of the Advanced Usage section of the Matrix setup?
thanks for confirming!
I just got myself an account for the FreedomBox Manual on wiki.debian.org, however I am not sure if I should just add it myself or if there is some procedure that should be followed (e.g. creating an gitlab issue first). Maybe someone else from the community could help or let me know?
