Hi,

Chances are if you're reading this, you have applied for a TurnKey website user account.

Considering that 95% of all signups are spammers and/or seo farmers, plus the hammering the site has got from spammers earlier in the year, blocking auto signups was probably overdue. However, it can be really hard to tell the difference between a potential spammer and a legitimate user. So I'm almost certain that I delete legitimate accounts when I cleanup the obvious spammer ones.

So this thread has 2 main purposes:

  1. A place where prospective users, waiting for account approval, can introduce themselves, share a little about what they are using TurnKey for and demonstrate that they are a legitimate human; and
  2. A place where TurnKey users who are looking for support can post their question(s)/issue(s) while they are awaiting account approval.

Intro post

The first is pretty self explanatory, but I anticipate that spammers and seo farmers will want to try to game the system and will likely post friendly messages in the hope that they will convince me. So if you fit into this category, please be sure to mention specifically which appliance you are running (or plan to run) and on what platform. Also if you can give some context to your username and/or email, that might help me too. I'm not going to go into what sort of things I use to tell the difference (because spammers will adapt their behaviors) but I'm hoping that this will give some solid hints for legit users, but won't get read by too many spammers. One thing I can say is that the more detail you share, the harder it is to "fake" it, the more specific you can be, the less likely you are to be a spammer.

Guest support post

For the second category, please be sure to include lots of info. The reason for that is two-fold. Firstly, so I can tell you're not faking it to try to get your spam account enabled. Secondly, so that we can provide a useful response (rather than just asking you more questions). Definitely include the specific TurnKey appliance and version that you are using (and/or the output of 'turnkey-version'), plus details of the problem you are experiencing or thing you are trying to do but need advice on. Please provide as much info as possible.

Final words

If you're still reading, I'm almost certain that you aren't a spammer. Please post a new post below (as a guest). In the provided space for email address (which won't be publicly visible), please be sure to include the same email as you used for your account signup. Please note that your post may need to be manually reviewed before it is public visible.

Note too that support type posts will be moved. Other posts might be cleaned up from time to time too, so please don't be put off if there are no posts below.

I learned about Turnkey when I started experimenting with containers in Proxmox. I would love to try out the config syncing and see what all is possible.

If you could activate my account, that would be great.

Thanks and greetings from Switzerland
Michael

I am interested is taking the Turnkey Fileserver for a test drive to see how a virtualized NAS will work within our VmWare environment. I need to see the documentation to see what needs to be configured on our end and to obtain the virtual appliance.

Thanks,
Martin Frankhouse

Greetings,

I'm requesting a forum account. I've tried several appliances and am having some issues with several of them I was hoping others could help me sort out. Lately, I've been playing with Bugzilla, Mantis, and Roundup, but have also used Bookstack and over the years, tried a few others.

BTW, are you aware (I tried emailing support weeks ago), that Collabtive is broken (download link doesn't work). It looks old and potentially unsupported... maybe time to remove?

Thanks!

Thanks for the heads-up on Collabtive! We’ll look into the broken link and evaluate the status of Collabtive to see if it needs updating or removal from the downloads. If you spot anything else, please feel free to let us know.

Happy exploring with Bugzilla, Mantis, Roundup, and Bookstack! Let us know if there’s anything specific we can assist with.

Hey there,

I'm working as a IT system administrator at a German school and want to use some of your nicely preconfigured apps on our Proxmox nodes. I also use them in my homelab from time to time. But I just happen to have some questions about your "osCommerce" installation, since it says, that it is already registered to Gary Palmer. So I'd like to have access to the forums.

With kind regards
Kris Wojcikolski

Looking to get my account activated, I run a scanner radio system and have multiple sites that are remote. Currently use Synology VPN but looking to expand to a better system and have more options.
I loaded the ISO on a VM to take it for a test drive and now I'm ready to put it on some bare metal. Not going to be using an official appliance, looking to install it on an older used Dell Micro machine. Version 18.0 bookworm
