Welcome to TurnKey Linux! :)
TurnKey Hub API key
If you want a TurnKey Hub API key, please sign up over there (website and Hub accounts are separate). Signing up to the Hub will give you a free 14 day trial of our remote, encrypted Backup system (aka TKLBAM) and/or our Cloud servers.
Note that signing up to the Hub requires an AWS account. We do hope to support alternate cloud providers in the future, but currently all the services provided by the Hub are backed by AWS services. To allow the Hub access to your AWS account, you will need to create an AWS IAMs role. The Hub provides details of that during signup, but there are also AWS IAMs role creation docs for more info.
If you have any Hub specific questions or problems, please reach out to support via the little blue icon in the bottom right corner - or email support AT turnkeylinux.org.
To signup to the TurnKey forums, please read on...
TurnKey Linux website account approval.
Unfortunately due to overwhelming spammers we've had to disable automated account approval. To get your TurnKey website account approved, please post something in this thread to demonstrate that you are not a spammer. Here are some suggestions of what to include in your post:
- Introduce yourself with a bit of info about who you are, where you come from, etc

- Features you'd like to see added to TurnKey
- Which appliances you are using or interested in

- Details of problems you are having with a TurnKey server or questions about TurnKey Linux
Feel free to address as few or as many of them as you'd like. Please note that your post will not be visible until it is approved, so don't be concerned if it "disappears" after you click the button. Your account will be approved at the same time as your post.
We will try to approve accounts as quickly as we can, but please be patient. We're a relatively small team and always busy squirreling away in the background.
While you are waiting, please feel free to browse our documentation or read and respond to posts on our blog. If you have a bit of Linux knowledge, assisting others on the support forums is always welcome. Note that you can post comments on existing forum threads but until your account is enabled, they will need to be manually approved. Once your account is activated, you will be able to open new threads and posts will not require approval.

Mediawiki appliance - search box autocomplete slow
Hi :)
In https://www.turnkeylinux.org/mediawiki,
due to misconfiguration in ModEvasive,
search box autocomplete slow appears with randomly "access denied".
Please uncomment the default options in
/etc/apache2/mods-enabled/evasive.conf
Regards
Krzysztof Szwaba
Welcome to TurnKey and thanks for your post
Welcome to TurnKey and thanks for your post.
Perhaps an updated mod_evasive config now ships with the Debian package? I say that because originally the only tweak we made was to the logging - otherwise we used the default config provided by Debian (their defaults are usually sane). So I'd be interested to hear what changes you made.
FWIW, another user reported a similar issue with another appliance some time ago. We have since adjusted the mod_evasive config to not be so aggressive in our "common" build code. Unfortunately the MediaWiki appliance has not been rebuilt since we made that change.
That change should eliminate the issues you've noted with MediaWiki. I'd be interested to see how the change you've made compared to what we've done and/or hear whether our change also works for you.
I hope to do a batch of updates soon, so I will ensure that is rebuilt as part of that batch. I have also opened an issue on our tracker to test and ensure that the MediaWiki search box autocomplete works ok.
Checking things out.
Hello, I'm testing out Proxmox and found these Turnkey templates so I'm trying them out to learn.

New user to turnkey. Just installed owncloud via proxmox helper scripts and was also looking at trying the nextcloud turnkey. Had issues with nextcloud AIO docker looking to simply for those who are not me that may have to work on my homelab in the future.
Hi there, welcome to TurnKey
Hi there and I'm glad to hear that our appliances are of value to you.
FWIW our Nextcloud appliance is much more popular than the ownCloud one. I'm sure that ownCloud works fine, but most users prefer Nextcloud.
Regardless, if you have TurnKey questions, problems, suggestions or other feedback, please open a new thread in the forums.

Hello! I was introduced to TurnKey when I was exploring the container templates included in Proxmox a couple years back. I immediately appreciated the ease in getting the applications running, the ease of management, and possibility of future expansion to a cloud based hosting solution, all while retaining the ability to customize the applications for my needs. Now, with several TurnKey containers running services for my home environment and my partner starting a small business, I am looking to explore the cloud backup/hosting solutions for additional off-site redundancy.
One feature on my wish list would be additional cloud options, such as Hetzner, Linode (Akamai), Cloudflare, etc..
Thanks for all the work that goes into TurnKey!
Hi Jacob, thanks for sharing
Hi Jacob. Thanks for sharing a bit about your journey with TurnKey to date. It's great that we might be able to assist you fulfilling your plans and goals.
Thanks for sharing your feedback too. We do hope to support other cloud providers in the TurnKey Hub. Although unfortunately we have no ETA so no promises when that might happen...
You may already know this but FYI the Hub backups don't require a Hub cloud server. TKLBAM (our backup tool) will work with a TurnKey server running anywhere - so long as it has outgoing internet access.
Also, just in case you haven't already signed up to the TurnKey Hub please head over there and do that. Then you can get your Hub API key and check out the available services. Unfortunately it's got a separate user database so the signup for that is an additional step (another thing we hope to tidy up in the future). On the plus side, Hub account activation is automated, so your won't need to wait longer for that to be approved.
If you have any Hub related problems, questions or more feedback, please reach out via the Hub support (blue icon in the bottom right corner of every page). I usually reply there within one work day. While on the Hub's free trial and if you continue with paid plan(s) I can also give basic one-on-one support over there - both with the Hub itself, but also with specific TurnKey appliances. If you have support requirements beyond what we include via the Hub, I'm also happy to discuss further support options.
Otherwise, for any TurnKey questions, problems or feedback just open a new thread.
Good luck with it all and hopefully see you about some more.
Oh one last thing. It's nowhere near as easy as launching a Hub server or running a local guest on Proxmox, but running TurnKey on many other cloud providers is possible. Some clouds support booting from an ISO. So download the ISO from our website and upload it to your alternate cloud providers storage. Then configure a new server to boot from the ISO and install. Then stop the server, unmount the ISO and start it up again.
Even if they don't support booting from ISO, many support uploading a custom root volume image. That requires creation of a custom TurnKey VM image locally - either on your Proxmox host or a TurnKey VM if you prefer. Then upload it and configure it as the main server root volume. FWIW we have a couple of paying Hub server plan subscribers (to support us & have access to our support) who actually run their servers elsewhere.
