What issue do you have?

Good Day,
I am new to Joplin and I would like to install it on a Ubuntu server with a remote MariaDB. I was amble to do that with other application running on Linux but they had an install script already provided. I am not a Linux pro but I can do the work with the proper help. Would someone tell me if there a tutorial or a script already written to do that kind of job or close to ?

Thanks

Good Day @Steph ,

Thanks for the help. Sorry if I wasn't really specific In my first tread topic. Here what I am trying to achieve in details:

I am trying to install Joplin Server a Ubuntu Server 24.04 VM without Docker. I want to link that app to an MariaDB instance running on a external storage (NAS). I know the preferred way is to go with Docker but I did had the time to spend of this entire new beast yet. I was able to do that kind of job with an app call BookStack but I don't have any merit because someone already write a script to do that job. I was hoping to found out something similar for Joplin. I am not a Linux Wiz but I manage well for the basic knowledge I have. So if you have anything to get start with the setup I am looking, please send me the info and I will start from there.

Thanks in advance for your help

MySQL is not officially supported though, so there's no guarantee it will work

Thanks very much for your help.

Much appreciated

Thanks for the information. I see that someone post a link to a Docker image built with MySQL. It it not officially support, so I can try with PostgreSQL but Like I said before, I am not familiar with Docker yet. Both can be installed on the same VM for the initial setup since I am not familiar with PostgresSQL. That will also ease the whole installation process and let me learn Joplin with Is component. I think I over complicated that project of mine with my lack of comprehension of Linux system and this app to. Sorry for the incovevnient. We learn everyday it look like :slightly_smiling_face: Thanks

We wish you happy time discovering new things !

If you use docker compose you could have Joplin Server and Postgres in just one package, which might end up being simpler than trying to get it working with an insulated unsupported database

Ok, let forget Docker and the insulated unsupported database for a moment. Do you have a procedure so I can install Joplin Server with SQLite of PostgreSQL DB on a VM Ubuntu Server 24.04 all together? Thanks
