Actual behavior
I deployed a Wiki.js on Heroku: https://github.com/Requarks/wiki-heroku It works but after short time I start getting Application Error with following error:

The only way to get it work again is to restart all my dynos.

Any suggestion about what is causing that issue and how to solve it?

Thanks

Hi,
Yesterday I deployed a new WikiJs through Heroku.
Everything was fine (4 entries so far, 4 users)
For some reason today when I entered again, all the entries from entries table were removed. Just that table. Users remain there, sessions remain there, and I am not sure what is bruteforces but I have 4 entries there.

Any idea why my entries table were removed not after 12 hours??

https://beta.requarks.io/api/version/stable does not exist

The Dockerfile contains a reference to an old wiki.js 2.x version.

Please update the dockerfile to the latest stable version:

https://hub.docker.com/r/requarks/wiki/tags

On a clean install in Heroku I'm getting this error:

2017-10-02T03:19:58.217691+00:00 heroku[web.1]: Starting process with command `cd wiki && node server`

Any ideas?

I had to figure out the following steps to get the instance up and running:

1. Create new app in heroku ('myapp')
2. Create a new pipeline 'myapp'
3. On command line: git clone wiki-heroku (this repo)
4. Command line: heroku login
5. Command line: heroku git:remote -a myapp
6. Command line: heroku stack:set container (to switch to docker deploy mode on heroku)
7. In heroku admin backend: Resources > Add-Ons > Add heroku-postgresql add-on
8. Command line: git push heroku 2.x:master

Hello

I am using wiki for company specific wiki. I have deployed it on Heroku, but wanted only the company's employees to login and connect to wiki.
I have an app which takes care of SSO authentication. But when I call that API @ server/index.js, it is not working. I have given code snippet below.
It may be because of the reason that the service starts at background and by the time user logs-in, everything is working.

// ----------------------------------------
// SSO Authentication
// ----------------------------------------
console.log('Authentication will happen through SSO')
const auth = require(<My_SSO_Module_Name>)
auth.authenticate(app);
// ----------------------------------------

Do suggest if there is any direct way of SSO authentication.

Thanks

Hi there, I've cloned the repo, committed the changes, and pushed to Heroku, in order to change the SSH settings, but ended up without any graphics/js:

I used the 'Deply to Heroku' button but have not been able to get it to successfully authenticate with github, so downloaded the slug, made changes to SSH section of the config.yml file only to end up with the same result. Would be grateful for any help! Thanks!!

Hi,
I cannot run wiki on heroku, I get this issue

Error: Cannot find module '/wiki/heroku'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:880:15)
    at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:725:27)
    at Function.executeUserEntryPoint [as runMain] (internal/modules/run_main.js:72:12)
    at internal/main/run_main_module.js:17:47 {
  code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND',
  requireStack: []
}

WIKI_HOST must be configured without trailing slash. On my first installation attempt it was filled with the trailing slash, making the login link malfunction.

Linking an issue here to the one I posted at Requarks/wiki.

The auto-deploy to heroku does set up a wiki instance on heroku. I can then login and create pages. But page editing fails as documented here

The only supported GitHub authentication method is via username/password or personal token, which isn't ideal - I don't want Wiki.js to have full access to every repository in my account, and I don't want my personal credentials available to everyone with access to the Heroku app's settings.

It'd be better to be able to set the SSH private key as an environment variable, so I can give Wiki.js a specific deploy key.

Good afternoon,

I ran the command to clone the repository by following the instructions in my heroku panel

heroku git: clone -a myrepo cd myrepo

But this repository is empty

Did I do something wrong or is this a bug?

Hello

I have deployed wiki on Heroku.
The wiki information is getting stored in Github repository. I want that repository to be my corporate repository. But it is SSO enabled. Based on env variable, I can share user name and password. But that will not work due to SSO.

Can you please suggest if there is any way to do the same?

Thanks

Hi,

I am suddenly having an SSL issue. I created an new instance from the button at https://docs.requarks.io/en/install/heroku . This is quite an urgent one, as it has all my documentation on, for something I need to submit tomorrow. I tried adding the PGSSLMODE env var to "require", but then I get back "Database Connection Error: DEPTH_ZERO_SELF_SIGNED_CERT undefined:undefined" error.

Heroku provides SSL configuration setup via its ACM feature which is very convenient but I've not found a way to make it convenient to run this wiki on heroku with http to https redirection working fine. If I enable SSL_ACTIVE to true, it would try to provision cert via letsencrypt (given configs are set) but the challenge verification fails (seems like heroku does some sort of rewrite for the URL). What is the recommended setup to enable http to https redirection for Wiki deployment.

Also, on https://github.com/Requarks/wiki/blob/2.4.107/server/controllers/ssl.js#L29-L36, would it be convenient to provide an override such that we can always perform override for ssl redirection regardless of configurations. For example, something like ALWAYS_SSL_REDIRECT that can be set to true or 1? At the moment, enabling httpRedirection is not enough because unless letsencrypt or custom SSL cert is setup, WIKI.servers.servers.https is not be there causing the redirect to never happen.

Heroku router expects the redirection to happen on application level. The alternative solution to having ALWAYS_SSL_REDIRECT would be to check X-Forwarded-Proto and perform redirect (https://help.heroku.com/J2R1S4T8/can-heroku-force-an-application-to-use-ssl-tls) which is pretty straightforward and should work generally in other places too. Thoughts?

This doesn't load anymore when I use the template. I also can't edit the source files to try to fix it manually. I'd recommend finding a different way to deploy than heroku.

Database Initialization Error: no pg_hba.conf entry for host...

When you deploy again in heroku, all the created pages are removed.

I added papertrail to my heroku instance, then I changed papertrail to "true", committed, and pushed to Heroku.

App crashes with:
Error: Cannot find module 'winston-papertrail'

Actual behavior

Fresh Heroku build is using old data from wrong (previously used) .git repo.

Expected behavior

Heroku build should use data from .git repo specified on setup in WIKI_GIT_URL param

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Create new Heroku Build, insert url of freshly created git repo, check files. See they are still the old ones.
