Bug

The current postInstallMessage in CloudronManifest.json:

"Check the app logs for the line containing admin: to find it."

But the actual log line emitted by start.sh is:

=> ADMIN PASSWORD: <password>

Searching for admin: in the logs will return nothing — the user cannot find their credentials.

Fix

Replace the postInstallMessage with more accurate guidance that:

  1. Points to the correct log string (ADMIN PASSWORD)
  2. Also mentions the config file (more reliable than logs, especially after a restart)

Suggested message:

Your admin password was auto-generated on first start.

To retrieve it:
- Check the app logs for the line "=> ADMIN PASSWORD: ..."
- Or read it directly: open the Web Terminal and run: cat /app/data/cfg/copyparty.conf

The username is: admin
You can change the password by editing /app/data/cfg/copyparty.conf and restarting the app.
