Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:

Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/ this is a good place to start. Also highly recommend youtube videos lots of good stuff there.
Tteck is unfortunately no longer with us.
The new proxmox scripts project can be found here.
Yes, I tried a couple of those. They were giving me errors
The linked repository is unmaintained, and some of the scripts are broken as a result.
The scripts have moved to this repository.
Last time i used then they worked fine.
Try the scripts in the new one, and if they still give you errors let me know and i'll be happy to try and help you.
Also, please don't run scripts from the internet without reading trough them first. Even from a trusted source. You never know what random people could have written in there. 😅
Can confirm. The scripts in the new repository work just fine. I've run a bunch of them.
I was struggling with it for a bit, but I got it working. Main concern (before I check transcoding/acceleration) is NAS file sharing. Huge headache. The host is connected, but the lxc and vms don't use it
May i be so bold as to ask about how much experience you have with linux?
A basic understanding would go a long way i think.
But to answer your question:
You need to mount the nas drive directly to the lxc running jellyfin, not to the proxmox host.
Probably hundreds of hours, but very little was in a functional desktop...most of it was trying to get an install to boot and update software (I'm not joking).
That sucks. But this is a good way to learn.
Any tips on copy-pasting those commands into a console window? Every function I've tried has failed, but I'm willing to keep trying
It always works for me to just paste with ctrl+shift+v directly in the terminal window of the web gui.
Interesting, what browser do you use? Sounds like I may have to switch from Firefox if that's the case because this lack of quality of life is ridiculous
I use firefox as well, on linux mint, not windows. So if you use windows, that may be the culprit. I haven't used it in a long time so i don't know if that could be the case.
Well, this is the first step in me eventually dropping Windows (assuming all goes well). I'd like to wipe my main PC and do a dual-boot situation eventually, but migrating services to an actual server takes priority...got kiddos counting on their cartoons, can't let em down
I know how you feel. I hope you succeed both with your server and throwing out windows.
Godspeed on your linux journey.
Thanks! Its not easy, but I don't give up. Took me 3 years to get the *arrs running, but I eventually got it
