A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Hi all, I am trying to use Collabora online, but am stuck. I set it up via the docker instructions here (https://sdk.collaboraonline.com/docs/installation/CODE_Docker_image.html).

But when I go to https://127.0.0.1:9980/, all I get is "OK". The reverse proxy works, but the same "OK". How do I actually use the Collabora?

I am anticipating a web interface to a document editor by the browser.

Ah, so Collabora is the backend and there has to be a frontend? That was not clear to me. Is there a common frontend? I should add, I am specifically trying to avoid using NextCloud and OwnCloud.

The parent comment is correct. CODE is the server, you need the "Collabora Online app" for document editing. I'm not aware if there are alternatives to the ownCloud / Nextcloud apps.

Moodle can also use collabora.

Hate to say it, but I cannot find an alternate front end to it. There might be one, but documentation on it is pretty scarce, every tutorial I've ever seen has just told how to let nextcloud use it.

I don't know of another frontend. You might want to try only office instead.
