Cloudron

Cloudron is a simple app store that lets you install and run your own web apps like email, calendars, and chat tools on your personal server. It turns a plain server into an easy-to-manage personal cloud where you can click to install apps and they just work without complicated setup. It automatically handles updates, backups, and security so you don't have to be a tech expert. Cloudron uses S3-compatible object storage to keep safe copies of all your app data and backups in reliable places like DiskSpace. This means your information stays protected even if your main server has a problem, and you can quickly restore everything with just a few clicks.

Connection / Setup

  1. Create an account and log in to DiskSpace
  2. Click I'm ready to set up my storage
  3. Enter Bucket Name following the instructions
  4. Click Create Bucket and wait for it to be generated
  5. Find your Endpoint URL, Access Key, and Secret Key in the S3 Client Configuration section for use below

Connect DiskSpace.sh to Cloudron

DiskSpace.sh is a fully S3-compatible object storage service. Follow the steps below to configure Cloudron to use DiskSpace.sh as an S3 storage backend.

Connection Steps
  1. Log in to your Cloudron dashboard and navigate to the Settings > Backups or Storage section.
  2. Select S3 Compatible Storage as the storage provider.
  3. Enter the following connection details:
Region: Leave empty or set to us-east-1
Important: Path-Style Requests

DiskSpace.sh requires path-style URLs (not virtual-hosted style). Cloudron will automatically use the correct format:

https://s3.diskspace.sh/bucket-name/key
Example Configuration
Endpoint URL: https://s3.diskspace.sh
Access Key: AKIAXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Secret Key: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Region: us-east-1 (or leave blank)
Use Path Style: Enabled (required)
Troubleshooting
  • • Ensure you are using the exact Endpoint URL shown above
  • • Verify that your Access Key and Secret Key are copied correctly (no extra spaces)
  • • Confirm that the bucket exists in your DiskSpace.sh account
  • • If connection fails, try setting Region to us-east-1
  • • Cloudron must be able to reach s3.diskspace.sh on port 443
