Installed both Syncthing and BTSync but get errors for both. For BTSync it’s a HSTS error (I used the lets encrypt tutorial fro https) and syntching refuses to run ( The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later. ) Countless re-installs didn’t do anything
Turn off the tunneling traffic through CloudFlare.
I can’t confirm the same behavior. I installed this for a user this morning and set it up on Debian 8 without issue. What OS are your using? Have you tried to install with box install syncthing … additionally, you can remove it with box remove syncthing. Please use box as root user for a more reliable pass on actions.
I don’t think I have anything related to cloudflare on my domain or server ( I have hetzner ).
Ubuntu 16.04. Did box install and it’s still showing as red for me meaning it’s not starting.
Who are you using to host your DNS for the domain you installed the LE certificate on?
What is the output of systemctl status syncthing@USERNAME?
https://freedns.afraid.org/ is the dns . Namecheap is the domain name.

Does it produce any error in particular when you attempt to restart the service?
systemctl stop syncthing@USERNAME
systemctl start syncthing@USERNAME
You could just try restart instead, however, I want to see if stopping and/or starting produces an error.
No error whatsoever. With stop, start and restart.
Installed it without quickbox and pretty much got the same errror

I got btsync working by just using a different browser. The syncthing error is still there.
re: syncthing
I think I have the same problem as you and I think it’s a permissions / service issue.
I can actually get it started, despite the fact the installation from the dash or from (ssh) root fails with “cp: cannot stat ‘/root/QuickBox/setup/templates/sysd/syncthing.template’: No such file or directory”
If you ssh in, switch over to root and start syncthing (just type ‘syncthing’ from the command line) it should start the service. With the SSH session running, you should be able to then browse to the Quickbox dash and start the syncthing gui with no problems. It’s obviously not a fix, but it seems to highlight where the issue might lay.
The syncthing service refuses to start with my normal user. It only accepts root. Would love a solution to this problem. I’m just getting in to linux and I’m still not up on troubleshooting services
ps: should add, am also on ubuntu 16.04 running v2.94 of QB
