Testideed

I hope to use reverse proxy to deploy the website, but I don't know how to configure it

[x] Self-hosted (Own domain)
[ ] Cloud (clearflask.com)
[ ] Haven't tried (yet)

My financial contributions to ClearFlask:

[x] I use a free Plan
[ ] Thinking about it
[ ] Monthly / Yearly Plan
[ ] Lifetime Plan

If I want to reverse proxy a domain name and use a reverse proxy server to implement HTTPS, how should I fill out the configuration file? Should I modify some incorrect configurations? Please help me

my config:

{
    "connectToken": "xxx",
    "disableAutoFetchCertificate": true,
    "forceRedirectHttpToHttps": false,
    "parentDomain": "do.xx.com",
    "apiBasePath": "http://localhost:8080"
}

connet error: Oops, something went wrong

Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:8080
    at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (net.js:1146:16) {
  errno: -111,
  code: 'ECONNREFUSED',
  syscall: 'connect',
  address: '127.0.0.1',
  port: 8080
}

Type in your domain

Can't create initial super admin account

I am trying to self-host ClearFlask on my own environment

My docker compose file looks like this (using real DynamoDB, S3 and SES)

I also am using Apache as a reverse proxy for both main site (frontend) and API (backend)

My Apache configurations are as follows

Backend

Header always set Access-Control-Max-Age "1000"
Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Headers "x-requested-with, Content-Type, origin, authorization, accept, client-security-token"

ProxyPass / http://localhost:18080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:18080/
<Proxy *>
    allow from all
</Proxy>

Frontend

RequestHeader set "X-Forwarded-Proto" expr=%{REQUEST_SCHEME}
RequestHeader set "X-Forwarded-SSL" expr=%{HTTPS}

#ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass / http://localhost:19080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:19080/

DynamoDB is correctly configured because I can see that when I start the docker compose, a table is added to it I know for sure that SES is also working because I have tested it manually outside this environment For S3 I can't be sure because I haven't got yet to the point where I could successfully log in to the ClearFlask dashboard

I can start docker compose, apparently, without any issues. This is what I get as a final log entry when the docker compose is started

I have no idea what I am doing wrong and how to solve this

Maybe someone can get a glimps on this and see where is my mistake?

I use ClearFlask on:

[X] Self-hosted (Own domain)
[ ] Cloud (clearflask.com)
[ ] Haven't tried (yet)

My financial contributions to ClearFlask:

[X] I use a free Plan for now because I am evaluating options
[ ] Thinking about it
[ ] Monthly / Yearly Plan
[ ] Lifetime Plan

Pasting an image link fails to upload image properly

Pasting an image link to a post fails to properly upload the image. The img tag src is directly set and an upload is not triggered. On save, image is sanitized away.

Issue with manual sorting in the roadmap

As a roadmap manager, I'd like to sort entries in my roadmap so I can set and see work sequence and priorities. Manual sorting works in "Now" column, however in "Later" or "Next" my changes do not save and entries are sorted in a random order.

Using custom status as Completed

Originally clearflask has a builtin completed status in roadmap task category, but if I delete it and use any other custom status as completed, then the mechanism "completed tasks can be added to announcement on next page" will break because announcement management does not know which status is "completed", so it will mistakely show tasks that can be linked to but with wrong status. I think you may want to add a config to setup a "completed" status just as the "entry status".

Problems of managing users and admins

I found there're might be two systems/mechanisms of user management. One is signing up from xxxx.com/login page and this will by default create a new project with that user and make him as owner. Another is with OAuth/SSO or manually added by the owner, which belongs to current project.

My requirement is, there should be only one project, it has one owner and multiple admins, other normal users should create there account with OAuth. I tested and found following problems:

Cannot directly add existing account as project admin (in the teammate page), I have to send invitation email to the corresponding email address of that user, and he has to do sign up again from the invitation url, he cannot use the existing OAuth created account to login to dashboard as this account has no way to set password (maybe the real reason is there're two different accounts, described below). But because I want only one project, it is better to not allow signing up after initializing the first project.
Actually when signing up the email being input do not really need to be the same as the address which received the invitation, so it seems the user owns two accounts now, one for dashbord admin of the project, another for frontend usage of the same project. Even though the user input same email as his frontend OAuth account, these are still two different accounts, and the admin user has to remember yet another password. The good news is if he use same email, then jumping from dashboard to frontend will automatically use the corresponding frontend account.
After adding new user in the dashboard (ADD button in xxxx.com/dashbord/users), it cannot login from the xxxx.com/login entry and it always says email or password incorrect. It seems this is just a frontend account so cannot login from backend. However there's no way to directly login a frontend account using email and password, so I don't know what's the meaning of manually adding users in the dashboard, is it just used for on-behalf things? Another bug is after deleting this manually created user from dashboard and trying to sign up using the same email, it says the email already exists, so it looks like it's not really deleted, but still exists in database.
