Hi this could be an interesting addition to your selfhosted portfolio:

https://github.com/Frooodle/Stirling-PDF

Thnx for your work

[ajtatum]

Would be great to have this!

[Frooodle]

Hey I'm the maintainer of Stirling pdf I have no experience with proxmox but let me know if I can help in any way with this!

[tteck]

@Frooodle I noticed that "App Version" isn't populating, is this a known issue?

[Frooodle]

Known issue with latest release

[tteck]

Ready for testing

bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/raw/main/ct/stirling-pdf.sh)"

[tteck]

As soon as I get confirmation that everything is working, I will add it to the website.

[tteck]

What's a better test than going live? It's on the site.

[di5cord20]

Works for me. Thanks for another great script!

[quinton-c]

Worked great for me too. These scripts are amazing!

[di5cord20]

@tteck , how should we update this container? The usual "update" command ??

[tteck]

@di5cord20 Yesterday, I performed extensive code refactoring on the script. It might be prudent to establish a new LXC to ensure that all components are current and functioning correctly.

[di5cord20]

@tteck , I deleted my previous container and just installed again. Previously it took a long time to install all dependencies, etc. This time it finished almost immediately, doesn't show any errors, but I believe it didn't work properly. I'll try again but wanted to share here in case.

[tteck]

Clear browser cache.
The script's name changed.

Worked like a charm. Thanks again.

[di5cord20]

It's there!

My mistake. I leave your script page open and likely forgot to refresh. Thanks

[felersgit]

I keep getting this error when I attempt run this script. I have ran it a couple of times and results in the same error. I also bumped up the cpu's/ram but to no avail.

[ERROR] in line 62: exit code 0: while executing command $STD git clone https://github.com/agl/jbig2enc /opt/jbig2enc
++ [[ 62 -eq 24 ]]
+ exit

[tteck]

No issues here. Blocked by something?

It was DNS issue, weird I never get that with these scripts. Oh well the script works now, only problem after running several tests with the program itself is that when you try to convert a txt or doc file to a pdf it has issues with the libreoffice install. I don't have the error it gives, but it is with the python stuff. I will try to get it later or if you can do a simple test of converting a txt document to a pdf you will see the error.

[towerhand]

Can you try again @tteck? When I tried last night it ended up in an endless loop. I didn't have time to try again.

[tteck]

That's the spinner in verbose.

[tteck]

I'm going to remove set -x, this will allow only the $STD entries to be shown in verbose mode.

[tteck]

Verbose mode has been modified, if you'd like to try again.

[towerhand]

Now it works as it should. Thank you!!!

[tteck]

Yeah, that cleaned it up a bunch.

[Chrischi-]

How about integrating OCR? That doesn't work at the moment.

[Frooodle]

There was a update to OCR pathing yesterday, that might be cause

[Chrischi-]

That was it. I have created a simple symbolic link as a quick fix.

ln -s /usr/share/tesseract-ocr/5/tessdata/ /usr/share/tessdata
