Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I have CasaOS and I installed this https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/overseerr

Is there an easy way to simply upgrade it like a normal update and keep the settings?

It's more than that, you have to make sure a certain directory is owned by the "node" user and it has to have uid 1000. That's a small but very important step in said migration guide, which I overlooked initially. Nothing happened though, container wouldn't start and its logs kept pointing to this directory, then I saw it in the docs.
