Collabora CODE: can't find (and install) app

šŸš§ Installation
, ,
1

Hello everyone,

I have kinda the same problem as described here, but Iā€™m on the lastest NC version (26) so an update as the solution isnā€™t available.
I have a totally new NC installation on a rented server (your-storageshare . de by hetzner . de) and NC Office is installed.
I want to use Collabora CODE server - as far as I understand a free option for home use and small teams.
Therefore I should install (and find) an app called

  • richdocumentcode (name of the link in app store) or
  • Collabora Online - Built-in CODE Server (name of the app)
    https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/richdocumentscode
    but I donā€™t find any app similar to that with the built-in search or if I look through all categories manually.

Maybe the app I need has changed its name?
Orā€¦?

Kind regards
Philipp

You can install it with ā†’ occ ā† 

./occ app:install richdocuments
./occ app:install richdocumentscode

Hope that helps,
much luck!

Hello Ernolf,

youā€™re right: the latest version of NC is 27. But on my rented server it says ā€œv26 + up-to-dateā€ - probably I canā€™t change that because it is updated centralised (and hopefully soon will be because v27 came out in June, right?)

It seems that I have restricted or delayed access to updates as well, i.e. the app Nextcloud Office/richdocuments is already installed but not in v8.0.4 but v8.0.3 (minor problem hopefully)

The problem with richdocumentscode/Collabora CODE is that it isnā€™t even listed in my app store.
Till now I thougt that the ā€œnormalā€ NC app store was included but it seems that there is kinda pre-selection or ā€¦ delay/controlā€¦
Iā€™ll contact my hoster and if that doesnā€™t help, Iā€™ll come back here again :slight_smile:

I tried a bit with the console and occ but Iā€™m not so familiar with that, so that tip is - at the moment - not part of my solution xD

often hosted installations offer limited apps access. Especially CODE is affected as it requires many server resourcesā€¦
