hi guys. can anyone help a noob with setup issues?
<TimMc>
kodb: This is a good place to ask!
<kodb>
great. I just installed in a clean ubuntu 14.04 server instance. I am able to access the url at xxxx:6080. When I try to bring up wekan all i get is the spinner going and going. Any ideas where I should start?

What URL are you using to access it? Are you using a sandcats URL, or just localhost?
<TimMc>
Sandstorm's web security model relies heavily on separating apps (and grains) out by subdomain, so you need wildcard DNS involved. Sandstorm offers a domain and even SSL certs for free, but if you don't want to use that you'll have to set up your own DNS and stuff.

<afuentes>
its so fast that sometimes it doesnt even show up
<afuentes>
i cant even see the error in tt-rss log
<dwrensha>
afuentes: do you happen to be using firefox?
<afuentes>
dwrensha, yes
<dwrensha>
yeah, I've seen the same behavior
<dwrensha>
I tried with a bunch of browsers, and only Firefox in MacOS would cause it to happen
<afuentes>
Okay, I tried chromium and it works
<afuentes>
firefox in debian here
<afuentes>
firefox 50.1.0-1
<dwrensha>
kentonv and asheesh have talked other who have seen similar behavior
<dwrensha>
I think their conclusion was that it's a cookie problem
<dwrensha>
and if you manually clear the right cookie then the problem goes away
<dwrensha>
... but I have not tried doing so
<afuentes>
I remember having some problem with cookie monster and sandstorm, so I created a new firefox profile without the addon
<dwrensha>
and it would presumably require you to clear that cookie every time you opened the grain
<afuentes>
I will clear all cookies and reload
<afuentes>
well, its been working great for a long time... today it stopped for some reason
<dwrensha>
did you just update firefox?
<dwrensha>
do you see the same problem if you create a new tinytinyrss grain?
<afuentes>
dwrensha, well, i removed all the cookies just to be sure
<afuentes>
and it works in firefox again :)
<afuentes>
i tryed to close the grain (click on the X next to the name) and reopen it, and it works again :)

what
<dwrensha>
that's perplexing
<dwrensha>
but I'm glad it works for you
<afuentes>
dwrensha, if you want me to do some other debugging, just tell me, but this seems to be working fine now :)
<dwrensha>
thanks. I can reproduce the problem here, so no need
<afuentes>
:D

this is great... Ive been trying to debug this on my own for at least 5hours now... I asked here when I had given up
<afuentes>
removing all cookies... who would had thought :P

sorry guys I got called away: TimMc : I am using a Class c 192.xxx.xxx.xxx url within our office lan. DNS is being served by our old "PDC" which is a 2008R2 box. The sandstorm conf file defines the wildcard subdomains but I am not sure how to serve this.
<kodb>
Anyone else that can chime in as well; this noob will take any help I can get!
<TimMc>
kodb: Ah, so this is going to be an intranet-only thing?
<TimMc>
I don't know much about setting up DNS, but you'd need a way to have *.your.sandstorm.domain resolve to the IP of that box.
<TimMc>
That link I posted earlier has some details.
<kodb>
so my office lan is setup behind a Cisco ASA appliance and I may ultimately open it up beyond but because it is healthcare we need to control/be hippa compliant so restricting to intranet is current plan
<kodb>
I tried to add an A record to the dns and this doesn't work. I will check out the link you just sent. Stand by
<TimMc>
Hmmm, xip.io is not responding...
<TimMc>
there it goes
<TimMc>
(Interesting, they allow public IPs now too.)
<kodb>
ok so I added another A record and did some pinging and digging and all of a sudden the wildcards are working. I now have wekkan up!
<kodb>
so next question for all: do I need a secure login token everytime or is there a way to use passwords?
<dwrensha>
kodb: I guess you are using email login? your browser should cache the login state, so you should only rarely need to go through the email flow.
<dwrensha>
also, SAML and LDAP offer password-based login, and are available in Sandstorm for Work

Is there a way to allow people to sign up and become Users without admin action?
<TimMc>
I'd prefer to be notified of new account creations andlet it be self-serve, rather than having to tell friends "OK, you can go sign up, but then you need to let me know, and then I can promote your account, and then you can play around".
<kodb>
how long does it cache or is that something I need to set in the browser?
<dwrensha>
kodb: I think it automatically gets cleared every few months. I don't think it's configurable in the browser.
<dwrensha>
well, you could configure "don't remember any cookies or local storage" to have it not cache at all
<kodb>
ok I will need to look at; does sandstorm use cookies?
mnutt has quit [Ping timeout: 258 seconds]
<dwrensha>
yes, Sandstorm uses cookies
<dwrensha>
I don't remember whether the login token itself is cookie or lives in localStorage
<kodb>
ok let me look around chrome and see if I can configure

dwrenshaw: for Wekkan is there a manual or doc so I can see how to configure the lists on a board. I am interested in creating a gridlike view so I can see about 8 lists on one screen. also, is there a way to switch or drag cards between boards?
<dwrensha>
there's no way to drag between boards
<kodb>
ok.
<kodb>
what about wekan docs? I don't see anything on github
