Install OB2 on ASP.NET / SQL Server Hosting?

[Ani111]

Hello,
A noob question… Can I setup OB2 on ASP.NET server? I mean on site like this ASP.NET Hosting | .NET Core Hosting – Rootpal , which donot have root access but there is dotnet . Compared to VPS they are pretty cheap XD.

You need to modify the source code in order to change from SQLite to a hosted database. After that it’s enough to just edit the connection string in appsettings.json and you should be set. I will probably make a guide for this in the future.

Maybe it even works with the current SQLite db, I suggest you try. Also you can set OB2 up anywhere docker is supported (e.g. heroku) that’s the absolute cheapest option!

I am completely noob on setting up Docker\ Dot net apps … Please Make a guide on those too. I will be waiting. Meanwhile I will try myself setting up through googling and stacksoverflow. Also thank-you for your precious information.

How to update OB2 with docker

As you can see here How to update software inside a docker container? - Stack Overflow the best practice is to not update the software running inside the container, but to make a new container by pulling the new image. Make sure you mapped the UserData folder in the container to a local folder, so that you won’t lose your data. First of all stop the container. Then delete the stopped container and your local openbullet/openbullet2:latest image. If that’s the only image you have you can also ru…

@Ruri

SQLite to a hosted

But that guide is for Running on Windows 10/ linux Computer locally only. I bet many things need to be done to set it up on Heroku . If there is some guide for setting it up on cloud I mean … AspNet server (setting up database and running) or Heroku … would be great . I think it requires some backend skills too which I lack . But haveing some guide will probably helps .

I think you’re looking for this guide

Just swap the container name in the guide with OB2’s one

openbullet/openbullet2:latest

and you’re done.

DigitalOcean seems easier by the way
just swap facebox-prod-1 with openbullet/openbullet2:latest in one of the commands and you’re all set ^^

I have no clue about how the service provider you are using works, and I have no time to investigate. I only know how to deploy on a cheap vps e.g. a 3€/month linux vps, and that’s covered in my installation guide.

Yeah thankyou understandable. Also thankyou For heroku tuts, I am switching the host provider now, i got a clue. You are awesome
