!Friendica Support did you know that in your wiki there are dead links. i was wondering why my new friendica server from yesterday to today has more than twice as much storage space consumed. i was looking for information about the perpetrator called storage in the database. but https://wiki.friendi.ca/docs/database when i go to storage - there are a error 404. and no more information about what storage is and how i can reduce the size of this table....

No (at least I) did not know it. Thanks for sharing the info.

The files you are looking for are on your friendica note (instead of wiki.friendi.ca) or here in the repository https://git.friendi.ca/friendica/friendica/src/branch/develop/doc/database.

In the admin section of your node you can switch from database-based storage for pictures and files to file-base storage. It will give your database some room to breathe but it will grow your filesystem instead.

I followed your advice and I got
ERR_HTTP_RESPONSE_CODE_FAILURE .

Any hints?

Can you please expand on what you were doing when you got this error? Also paging @Fabio as he implemented the storage switch feature.

The context: I am self-hosting Friendica under #Yunohost, so I created a directory at: /home/yunohost.multimedia/petroskowo

Then I opened admin options (Firefox):

Once I click "Save and use", the response is a blank screen at
https://petroskowo.pl/admin/storage/Filesystem

When I tried the same from my Android / DuckDuckGo browser, I get
"Page ... cannot be loaded, because ERR_HTTP_RESPONSE_CODE_FAILURE"

As usually with such cryptic errors my money is on access rights. ls -l shows

drwxrwxr-x+ 2 root               root 4096 Nov  4 18:28 petroskowo

but I do not know if and to what should I change it.
#yunohost

What is your web server user? What is the user you run the Friendica worker cron job with? Both should be the same and neither should be root.

@Fabio -- kudos!

Thanks to you, I learned today how to:

1. From my cron table retrieve the username: friendica

2. From /var/www/friendica find out out ownership and mode: friendica:www-data 0750

3. In /var/www/friendica create log/friendica.log

4. Apply details from #2 to the directory I created for media files

And now the storage switch went without any glitches. 

root@tepewu:/home/yunohost.multimedia/petroskowo# ls
0c  2a  37  41  4d  61  71  8c  bf  d5  f6
0e  2e  3a  42  57  62  73  93  c8  e3  ff
29  33  3e  4b  60  6d  79  94  c9  e9  index.html


Thank you for your support.
#2 @Fabio
