Sorry for no description but the editor from mobile was bugged…
Anyway, I wonder if there are permission issues because I failed the first installation that failed because wrong domain.
Looks like there are some missing permissions somehow

Hi,
Could you check the permissions and ownership of `/home/yunohost.app/appflowy/` ?

It should be owned by appflowy.
`sudo chown -R appflowy:appflowy /home/yunohost.app/appflowy/`
Try installingf and let us know if it fails again. (If there’s no data in this folder, it could also be removed if you didn’t use appflowy before on this server).

‘‘user not valid’’
and yes, there was no appflowy before so i’d rather delete it; i will delete both this and the appflowy notifs one and try again, stay tuned
edit: deleted those 2 folders and installation started

np, you are helping a lot
anyway, again the “address already in use” but it’s an address i made specifically for appflowy and this time i’m sure i selected it because it’s also in the logs… Maybe there are much more stuff i should rm idk. I’m going to work now, I’ll think about it later in the day

edit: last thing, i have an unknown systemd service called appflowyweb, failed installation left around much garbage…

A port required by appflowy is already in use. Can you check
```auto
sudo lsof -i :9000 -i :9001 -i :9999 -i :8000 -i :3000 -i :5001 -i :3001
```
That’s quite weird cause installation should increment the port(s) number when a required port is already in use.

Shown in the webadmin ? If so you can remove this zombie service with `yunohost service remove appflowyweb`

i hope there is no sensible data here
p.s. yes, from the webadmin so now i’m gonna remove it ty
p.p.s. in the meanwhile, i also rm -r again those 2 appflowy folders created once again

i just uninstalled both bookwyrm and mastodon and now it works
mastodon was just a test so it’s fine, bookwyrm was a test i would have preferred to keep… I hope that this thread will help someone fix the package in any case

now i see there are quite some bugs (can sync notes, i can see myself writing on another device but i cannot sync my own propicture and profile name) and when restarting the server it also needs manual restart for main services… Probably needs some overhaul
