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
  • How you found TurnKey and what brings to here
  • What you think about TurnKey Linux; what we're doing well and/or what we could do better
  • Features you'd like to see added to TurnKey
  • Which appliances you are using or interested in
  • Your TurnKey Linux use case and what you hope to do with your TurnKey servers
  • 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.

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.

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.

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 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.
