@Skyetel They did indeed drop it. I read an article concerning that.

I'll check to see if a non-docker install method is doable.
So the short answer to this question is "no," but we might modify the installation to switch to RHEL's k8s so you can use Centos 8. Our developers live and breathe containers, and trying to get them to go old school is... challenging lol.
However, we are going to be writing a few guides for users to be able to install postcards on cloud platforms like this:
https://www.digitalocean.com/products/kubernetes/ & https://aws.amazon.com/fargate/We're also going to draft some guides that show people how to the HTML source to make changes for themselves (ideally by being able to FTP into the Postcards Server and modify the HTML - but the exact method is up in the air).
-
@Skyetel I know for sure Podman is a replacement for docker in Fedora. I believe the same applies to RHEL 8 and CentOS 8.
-
@Skyetel work around for CentOS 8.
Install containrd.io manualy before calling run.sh
dnf install https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/7/x86_64/stable/Packages/containerd.io-1.2.6-3.3.el7.x86_64.rpm
But then I still get this on CentOS 8.

Same problem on Debian 10.
Going to bed now.

That's fine with me. I'm not after anything except a repeatable working system, that does not use legacy operating systems.

This new version is a disaster and I also think Skyetel has issues at their end.
The upgrade install work fine, but it will no longer receive the PUSH from Skyetel, so you don't get any replies from the phones.
If you change the phone number a user is assigned to, they can no longer send sms messages to any number they have previously sent sms to: "The phone number you used - 1xxxyyyzzzz - is no longer your primary phone number."
If you try to delete a user, well, it won't delete
Also, all of the above applies even on a fresh install of the Postcards, or a fresh install of the Ubuntu OS and Postcards.
So sad......
If anyone has the first version running, can you check your Skyetel SMS CallBack URL and post it? Please obscure your domain and your unique id.
I'm pretty sure the previous version had the work skyetel in the callback url, this version does not.....

If you can please message me some additional details (phonenumber, domain) for your app that is failing to receive messages, I can check our logs and debug it further.
Also, the app can be downgraded to the previous version with the following command as the super user in the root directory and re-running/re-configuring the app.

Spinning up a CentOS 7 instance now.
I assume I need to use a bigger instance, as I used the $3.50 instance for testing.
@Skyetel @cody I will nuke this and start over on a $5 instance.
FYI I will not run this in production though. CentOS 7 is way too old for me to use in production without a very good reason.

@scottalanmiller this thread needs tags.

Again failed.
It seems it is impossible to simply install this application in the current form.

@Skyetel your instructions are linking in an infintie loop.

Which says to go back to that page.

Same error on Ubuntu
I've now done this on CentOS 7, CentOS 8, Unbuntu 20.04, Fedora 31, and Fedora 32.
@Skyetel this has been a huge waste of time.

Let’s table this till next week. I’ll have one of our other engineers update the install script to be more inclusive for Operating Systems.
