For people not using redis: there is now an "automated patching mechanism" that will instead use the next best fork of redis that is available on your system as the Requires= dependency in *.service. This way, anyone can use their favorite fork of it. Keep in mind that upstream does not explicitly say that forks of redis work as well, and this further makes the built paperless-ngx-venv package non-portable. Happy experimenting :)

Latest version requires the python-django-allauth package.

AlphaJack commented on 2024-02-13 09:04 (UTC)

@cotsuka thank you for the report!

amo commented on 2024-02-12 18:52 (UTC)

Yes, The release notes mention the integration of single-sign-on methods and django allauth seems to be the default and standard implementation.

cotsuka commented on 2024-02-12 17:49 (UTC)

Looks like this now requires python-django-allauth as well. As soon as I install it, error messages related to migrating the database go away.

AlphaJack commented on 2023-12-14 10:25 (UTC)

@pipep Did you read any warning during the update process, like:

To complete the update process of paperless, you should run new migrations with

    sudo -u paperless paperless-manage migrate

This process can be automated by running once

    sudo mkdir -p /etc/pacman.d/hooks/
    sudo ln -s /usr/share/paperless/docs/paperless.hook /etc/pacman.d/hooks/

If not, does the file "/etc/pacman.d/hooks/paperless.hook" exist in your system?

After upgrading from 1.17.4 to 2.0.1 I am unable to open any view (documents, inbox, etc.). I get this error:

[WARNING] [paperless.api] An error occurred listing search results: no such table: documents_customfieldinstance

Edit: solved by running

sudo -u paperless paperless-manage migrate

StefanT commented on 2023-11-27 06:33 (UTC)

Until paperless-ngx is updated it helps to downgrade python-ipware to the previous version 0.9.0

Seems like something wrong with ipware:

@MarsSeed: Thank you for your remarks. I don't think the onboarding experience for paperless-ngx on archlinux is any bad. Just read carefully what is written on the paperless archwiki. The highlighted note in the Configuration section clearly states that there is no need to run paperless-manage as root. You are meant to run it as the paperless user, which is reasonable as @hashworks already pointed out. Having dedicated system users for separate applications is standard security practice.

MarsSeed commented on 2023-11-21 20:39 (UTC)

+1 remark: I came here after trying to build its alternatives, the legacy papermerge, and the successor, papermerge-core.

But both failed, disappointingly. Their upstream project apparently does not support the current Python version and environment that is available on Arch.

So I've recommended this package for users of the old papermerge. The fact alone that this complex build was a full success was in itself very encouraging!

The idea about the privilege checking wrapper that I've recommended would lead to a much better "onboarding" experience for new people trying this one out for the first time, instead of the long exception stack trace.

Btw, I think that /etc/paperless.conf does not contain any sensitive data, so it might not be harmful to give read access to that at least, to all users.
