| − | ===Things You Need to Know===
| |
| − | | |
| − | * ownCloud maintains its own account security system and does not utilize the Amahi host server's user account system.
| |
| − | * ownCloud maintains its own data storage directory area and is not the same as the shared directories (via Samba) created from the Amahi dashboard.
| |
| − | * There is no automatic update facility for ownCloud, it must be done manually. In future releases of ownCloud there are plans to provide an update function.
| |
| − | * "Third party application" plug-ins are available as "one-click installs" and can greatly enhance ownCloud functionality. These applications are considered "as-is", operation for some may be "quirky". Most operate just fine. However, support for the 3rd party applications is the responsibility of each contributing author, unless they are absorbed in to the "core" ownCloud binaries.

| − | ==Amahi ownCloud Installation==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * The "ownCloud Community" default installation on a typical LAMP server places the data directory with the application binaries. The Amahi installation places the data directory at "/var/hda/files/owncloud/data/".
| |
| − | * The Community default installation limits file upload sizes to "512 MB per file". This can be somewhat annoying for uploads of large media files. The Amahi installation limits upload sizes to "4.7 GB per file". Please note that this is subject to change by Amahi staff should server performance issues occur.
| |
| − | * The Amahi installation package is a "one-click install" and takes care of; downloading and installing required software dependencies, setting up the ownCloud database, ownCloud "administration" user.
| |
| − | * Initial login credentials for the administration user:
| |
| − | ::'''''User name''''': admin<br />
| |
| − | ::'''''Password''''': admin

| | + | ownCloud information presented is based on a ''"volunteer"'' author's experience and curiosity. Content in pages presented can change quickly or be moved to other pages where it is better facilitated. Your are welcome to contribute but please please be aware that other authors maybe submitting changes at the same time. Please use the ''“Work in Progress”'' wiki tag when making changes to a new or existing ownCloud page and of course removing the tag when changes are completed. |

| − | ownCloud is installed in the /var directory tree. In some cases a default install of the host O/S (i.e. Fedora) was performed possibly with out any advanced disk partition planning. For example, if a “desktop default” partitioning scheme was followed, the /home directory would be large, and the /var directory smaller and most likely was installed in the / (root) disk partition with other "system directories". ownCloud reports on the storage statistics of the partition the "data directory" it exists, usually the /var directory tree. | + | Should you have any Amahi ownCloud specific questions please submit inquiries to the '''[https://forums.amahi.org/viewforum.php?f=43 Amahi ownCloud Forum]'''. You can also consult the '''[http://forum.owncloud.org/ ownCloud Community Project Forum]''' |
| | | | |
| − | To solve the problem? Put /var in to it's own disk partition, put the ownCloud data directory in a separate disk partition, or allocate more space to the / (root) disk partition. Or the real painful part? Re-install the host O/S with a partition plan (I know, OUCH!).
