Important note of upgrade to seafile-server/seahub 12.X

Upstream now use Docker as default install option, so for standalone seafile they require an extra configuration file: ".env". Without proper content and location seafile won't start.

For details please refer to https://manual.seafile.com/12.0/upgrade/upgrade_notes_for_12.0.x/#3-create-the-env-file-in-conf-directory

@Joffrey thank you to maintain this package. Any plans to update the arch's wiki? Current server version says seafile-admin is deprecated, so I had to use setup-seafile-mysql.sh

Also it's a bit tricky to use the systemd units because I don't know how script create the files/folders structure, etc.

Finally after a lot of tries/errors, I can make it work, but I had to copy from /usr/share to /srv/seafile. I'm not sure how I have to make the updates later... so what I have to overwrite.

How are you managing your seafile server guys?

Thank you

Thanks @pvagner it's fixed.

Dear @Joffrey Since seafile-server 10.0 there is a new notification-server binary which is missing in the package.

@ChuckHL seafile-admin is no longer maintained, use setup-seafile-mysql.sh or setup-seafile.sh script instead.

I am unable to make a fresh install of seafile.

I managed to install all the required apps and packages.

I got an error regarding the python version. It said that it is not compatible with python 3 and to use python 2 (which if i am not mistaken, seafile 7 and above were supposed to be python 3).

I changed my env to use python 2 and now i get the following error when running: seafile-admin setup

Error: seaf-server-init not found in PATH. Have you built and installed seafile server?

Any idea on what am I missing?

Regards

It's reported https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/66365 .

It seems to be an oniguruma packaging issue since 6.9.5 disabled the "posix API" by default.

https://github.com/kkos/oniguruma/commit/04f2e597bfe0928cdefc84f5e7dafbb27abc52aa

Please report to the official package instead.

When trying to compile seafile-server 7.1.3 the following error message is thrown:

The package oniguruma 6.9.5-1 is installed, although that package doesn't contain the file 'onigposix.h'. Is there a wrong dependency set or what could be missing? I cannot find any other package that contains that file, and the oniguruma package also doesn't have it. Thanks for your efforts of maintaining the Seafile packages.
