[Solved] ZimaOS taking forever to install apps

Hi team, I want to report a problem.

When I try to install some apps from App store it takes really long time (sometimes forever).
Currently I faced this problem with following apps.

  1. Adguard Home
  2. Immich
  3. 2FAuth

I tried using different sources (eg Big Bear repository) but similar outcome.

And I can reproduce the problem like this:
Go to app store. Select app and click install.

And I remember I did this to my machine before the problem showed up:
This is a fresh ZimaOS install on Zimaboard

And I have tried these operations to fix it:
Restarting ZimaOs.
running docker image prune -a to remove unused images.
Tried reinstalling. But did not succeed.

[If you used CLI, then you did this by]
SSH as root user from my computer ubuntu terminal. Tried following.
systemctl restart zimaos-app-management

But no success.

And here are the specs of my machine:

It’s a known issue. Just update to 1.4.3. Look forward to your feedback.

Hi,
I’m having the same issue as the original poster…
I’m running ZimaOS 1.5.3 on a ZimaBoard2; I had the same issue on 1.5.0 and 1.5.1, too…
Any help would be gratefully received, please!
Thanks,
Iain

Please run the following two commands from the command line as root:

systemctl restart zimaos-app-management
systemctl restart docker docker.socket

This should resolve the issue in most cases.
We will also consider optimizing this behavior in future releases. Thank you for the feedback.
