Changing the appearance and user authentication in Owncloud - owncloud

I installed owncloud 10.0.8 on centos 7 and everything went well. Since I needed user authentication via Active Directory I installed “LDAP Integration” from the market and suddenly the background and the name change to “Custom Cloud”. Now despite changing the background file and some change in “/lib/private/legacy/defaults.php” file nothing changes.
What should I do to apply my changes and what is “Custom Cloud”?
Is it correct to use “LDAP Integration” app for user authentication via Active Directory ?
Regards

Not sure about Owncloud. In Nextcloud the theming can be easily done in the webui and LDAP is already included. Nextcloud is faster and has a lot more features and is fully open source. So I suggest that you try this instead.

MAUI: Persisting access to Nextcloud files via the file picker in connection with an iOS File Provider

I have currently the problem specially on iOS, that when I select a file through the FilePicker, which is located in Nextcloud and integrated in the file manager through the file provider, I get a shared path to the file. The access is now possible to the file.
However, if I now save the path and want to access it when I restart the application, this is no longer possible. I ran this on a local device.
Access to the path'/private/var/mobile/Containers/Shared/AppGroup/XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX/File Provider Storage/abcd.../test.xyz' is denied.
I couldn't figure it out from the documentation at apple.
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/fileprovider
Is the selected file only temporarily accessible? How can I permanently access e.g. a file in nextcloud via FilePicker without implement a WebDAV client to the app and constantly kept up to date the selected file?
With Android, as far as I have read, a permanent copy of the file is created, and access to the file also works when the application is restarted. Here, however, there is the problem that the file is not updated.
The permission checks and requests are automatically handled by .NET MAUI. But, when you use the FilePicker, you need to enable the iCloud capabilities.
For how to enable the capabilities, you could check the MS docs. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/maui/ios/deployment/entitlements

Mirth NextGen Connect desktop upper bar menu Server Manger links to wrong install of the Admin UI?

Having problem where the Mirth Connect Server Manager UI points to an earlier, non-working install version of the Admin interface.
Installed Mirth once and had to reinstall because the original install had set the password requirements to something that the default admin account could not pass. When I did this, the installer said that it detected that Mirth was already installed and asked if I wanted to re-install and I said yes. However, the Admin UI that the Mirth Connect Server Manager windows that remains in the upper menu bar of my desktop still appears to be using the old install with the password issue.
The Mirth Connect Server Manager icon in the upper menu bar takes me to wrong setup. Can't log in from the Admin UI that this bring up (told can't authenticate or connect (which was the problem I had with the earlier install)).
Need to use the Program from here
and make sure that I chose the right one, then I am able to use the default admin account to log in and proceed as normal.
Anyone know how to fix this (eg. somewhere in the underlying files where I can change this)? Anything else I should check that may be messed up due to this problem that I may not be noticing? I am on Ubuntu 18.04.4LTS MATE.
In the installation folder\conf\mirth.properties file, change the HTTP and HTTPS ports to values different from the prior one. Get to your browser type localaddress:new_http port then click on the icon -launch Mirth Connect administrator. Clicking the saved shortcut will launch an admin launcher which will allow you to edit and save the functional instance.

Changes in Windows Azure web role via remote desktop are not propagating

I have deployed a web role on Windows Azure. It runs on one instance only. I set up the remote desktop to access it.
At the moment I need to change only two lines in a JavaScript file in the website.
I connected to the instance then ...
navigated to the E:\approot\Scripts
opened the target file, edited it
Changes didn't propagate. (I download the old content)
Then I tried to
Stop the IIS in web role
Edit the file
Start the IIS again
Changes didn't propagate (When I open the file in the RD I see my new content, but when open via http I see the old content)
Then I tried
Opened RD
Navigated to the file and edited it
Rebooted the instance via Windows Azure control panel
Again connected to RD
I still see the old content in the remote server
My question is what I should do in order to change only one file without redeploying the whole package?
My guess is you're editing the wrong location. Look in e:\sitesroot\0 (or something like that). When in doubt, open the IIS config UI and find out exactly where the website content lives.
EDIT: But as Dennis pointed out, changes you make this way don't persist, so use this only for testing.
I have had this work before, but there problems with this type of change. If something happened to the hardware you are running on and your instance needed to be 'healed', it will only be created from the package you uploaded. Azure does not know about the file edits you have made via RD.
There is not a way to make a single file change in side of a cloud service right now, but with the new Azure web site functionality it is just a git push or tfs push away.
You should be able to do a web deploy by right clicking on your website project (not the azure role project). This will only deploy files which have changed to the active instance. I believe there is a setting in your azure deployment profile (next to the remote desktop one) to enable this.
As noted in other answers these changes are lost should azure need to recreate or provision additional instances. Still, it is a great way to make incremental changes for development.

Connecting Coda to local Wordpress install hosted with Mamp Pro

I have been using Coda and regular version of Mamp for local development for longtime without getting into this permission mess. I recently, upgraded to Mamp Pro and setup it with VHosts. I have a site example.com with it's root path set to /Users/john/Sites/example. I have set the owner and group to www in Mamp Pro.
The moment I got all this configured I started having problems with Coda. It keeps asking me the username and password to edit the local files at /Users/john/Sites/example. I guess I have to enable FTP on my Mac and then add a site in Coda to stop it asking me to enter username password for every single file. However, I have no idea on how to get this working. I am using Lion 10.7.2
Additionally, I have setup etc/hosts file for pointing example.com to 127.0.0.1
UPDATE: Though the accepted answer by #mini does not directly answer this question. It is still an elegant solution with seamless integration with Coda.
Consider using DesktopServer instead (along with Coda 2). Unlike MAMP, you can work on template theme files directly with WYSIWYG preview, LAN share for mobile device testing (with WordPress, -not just HTML sites), enables AirPreview to work with WordPress, copy, import/export to live sites, etc. Setup is easy as it manages your vhosts, database, and project files in about three mouse clicks:

hidden (?) files

I'm writing an app that includes a folder/file explorer. That part is working. However, another app (Astro File Manager) has the ability to backup all of the installed apps to a backup location on the SD card. I cannot find or see the folder(s) where installed apps are stored. Supposedly it is in "/data/apps". My phone is NOT rooted and Astro works fine. Does anyone know what the trick is to seeing these folders/files? Is it possible to do this in B4A? Thanks!
Android doesn't allow you to access other programs files. Astro probably uses the backup API that allows you to backup other programs. However the backup API doesn't give you access to the files.
