We don't use redis to cache the images - they're stored inside the cache directory within your main Mayan Media directory. By my understanding, the cache references are all stored in the postgres DB. You can run redis without persistence relatively safely. We use redis more as a message broker and w...

Thanks for sharing! - But a word of caution to others; it's usually recommended to backup via the dump and restore methods because if you run a backup against postgres 9.6.1 and then we migrate postgres over to v10, the restored directory won't work due to the different structures, and there's no ea...

Ahh I understand what you mean now in terms of local changes. So in theory there's nothing stopping you from cloning the releases/all or master branch, creating a virtualenv and then installing all the dependencies into that folder. That's how we create local developer environments. But we stopped s...

Sure! Create a file in /etc/restic/repo.env (the file can be anywhere and called anything). Then put something like this into the file: export RESTIC_REPOSITORY=s3:http://yourbackuplocation export RESTIC_PASSWORD=repopassword The RESTIC_REPOSITORY value is what you provide after -r on the CLI (poten...

It's entirely possible when upgrading to 3.3.12 that the migration process (that upgrades the DB to the latest schema) added in the column for you. We'd have no way to know without actually testing and checking it, but the second error you posted was a missing column in the database so potentially t...

That looks to me as if it can't talk to redis properly. It would also explain your lack of images; as the task to generate them potentially isn't getting sent correctly via the redis broker. What version were you on before 3.3.9? - Around the 3.3 timeframe we added a default password to the redis se...

As you're using docker, you have to run pg_dump within the postgres container itself not the Mayan container. pg_dump should be running inside the postgres container, so you'll need to docker exec into that container first. See https://docs.mayan-edms.com/chapters/docker/backups.html for some other ...

So far the majority of enterprise customers deploy using Direct Install methods, and that's the way our consultants tend to do things. There are improvements happening on the Docker side (mainly around Kubernetes) in the background, but without knowing more about the project in terms of size it can ...
