Hello, @RbDev
Having a couple of enterprise level messaging app, I would say that moving towards the the new menu design would allow the features to be more scalable and flexible. As Mattermost continues to grow and introduce new features, it makes more sense to avoid too much clutter to maintain a simplistic design and have users to be able to utilize as much features offered as they can with a simple slide.
Nevertheless, your thoughts on this matter is appreciated. Thanks.
@Sandmonster By “properly plugged into i3” I meant if i3 does properly handle the instructions to reduce mattermost to the systray. Even if we see packets travelling from mattermost via dbus doesn’t mean i3 can interpret this properly and know what to do with such an information (i.e. like in event based programming: does i3 is really registered to this kind of dbus event?).
Do you have any other app to test to see whether i3 is the culprit here?
@wget I start telegram-desktop with -startintray option and it does start minimized in tray. I also have a dropbox package which is also starts in systray on startup. This makes me think there might be something wrong with mattermost way of implementing minimization.
Here is dbus-monitor output of telegram launch:

Restoring config.json after migrating to another server fails
Issue in one concise sentence
MM starts
When copying config.json MM fails to start with a very unspecific error (/var/log/gitlab/mattermost/mattermost.log):
{"level":"info","ts":1545783114.786322,"caller":"utils/config.go:211","msg":"Config file watcher detected a change reloading /var/opt/gitlab/mattermost/config.json"}
{"level":"error","ts":1545783114.7864351,"caller":"utils/config.go:216","msg":"Failed to read while watching config file at /var/opt/gitlab/mattermost/config.json with err=parsing error at line 1, character 1: unexpected end of JSON input"}
{"level":"info","ts":1545783114.8663583,"caller":"utils/config.go:211","msg":"Config file watcher detected a change reloading /var/opt/gitlab/mattermost/config.json"}
MM versions on both servers should be the same. (Using gitlab omnibus.)
When I remove config.json, MM starts with all channels and attachments, but the system config is missing obviously. So it seems that there is some incompatibility that prevents me to move my old config to the new server. I can’t figure out what though as the log messages is basically useless.
Did anyone encounter this previously?
Mattermost Version: 5.5.0
Database Schema Version: 5.5.0
Database: postgres
PS: config file is not corrupted, correct JSON, hash of file is same as on old servers
PPS: servers differ in underlying Ubuntu version (16.04 vs. 18.04)
Is there any way by which we can Turn ON/OFF DND status for all the users and we can schedule it.
So the outcome would be that status of all the users will be changed to Do Not Disturb irrespective of them being Online/Offline/Away.
Hi,
now we are under way on migratoion from HipChat to local Mattermost instance.
HipChat data converted by Hipmost utility.
We are successfully imported direct messages using this method but have issue with importing room’s data.
CLI command finished without errors but new room I’ve found only from CLI command line. I able to see new room in Mattermost only after manipulation with CLI command line:
- manually add himself to new team
- manually add himself to channel
But after this I’ve found that new room is empty, without any message. However source JSOL file contains many messages.
Please help me resolve this situation.
Sergiy
it works now! Thanks @jasonblais
There are no links to create a group and admin console, after the first authorization (see screens).
Links:
Create a new team
Go to System Console
Iinstall and configure Mattermost
Go to page Mattermost
Enter mail, login and password for first use
Version number
Mattermost Version: 5.5.1
Database Schema Version: 5.5.0
Database: mysql
OS: 4.9.0-8-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.130-2 (2018-10-27) x86_64 GNU/Linux

Thanks @Sergiy for following up! Pinging @ylluminarious who may have insight on above.
Hey @Shevchik - are there any other users on the system? You can return a list of users via this API call
https://api.mattermost.com/#tag/users%2Fpaths%2F~1users~1usernames%2Fpost
If there are, the very first user created would have been the System Admin, with permissions to create a new team and go to the System Console.
If you’re unsure how to use the API call to return a list of users, let me know. Moreover, if you lost access to the first user created on the system, and hence lost System Admin permissions, let me know as well. We can help you on both 
Thank you for advice!

Hey @yatin,
I think a plugin for your Mattermost server would work great here. Here is more information about plugins: https://developers.mattermost.com/extend/plugins/
With our plugin framework, you can create a plugin which updates user’s status based on custom criteria that you’ve specified. Here is the plugin API call that let’s you update user’s statuses https://developers.mattermost.com/extend/plugins/server/reference/#API.UpdateUserStatus
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to let us know!
@cpanato It was an outgoing webhook, posting JSON to a URL like http://nn.nn.nn.nn:5000/status.
I do not believe the webhook settings themselves are the problem. I believe the problem is that in some circumstances http.NewRequest may return null if the destination URL is not resolvable.
https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/blob/master/app/webhook.go: in TriggerWebhook:
req, _ := http.NewRequest("POST", url, body)
req.Header.Set("Content-Type", contentType)
req.Header.Set("Accept", "application/json")
Clearly we are not expecting req to ever be nil here, but I believe the stack trace I posted at the top shows that it was indeed nil.
https://github.com/golang/go/blob/2012227b01020eb505cf1dbe719b1fa74ed8c5f4/src/net/http/request.go: in NewRequest it looks like nil is returned if the URL cannot be parsed.
I tried an experiment on our dev server - I set up an outgoing webhook with URL http://arealhostname:5000/whoops#this%&breaks;=no (with a valid hostname) and reproduced the crash.
I think the server should just be checking for the nil response here. Sorry for the lack of a PR - I would submit one if I had more time and was actually a golang developer!
When shutting down the server via systemd (which will send SIGTERM), it hangs and is eventually killed by systemd.
Observed on mattermost 5.6.1 and 5.6.2. Running on CentOS7 in systemd with command platform/bin/mattermost.
Previously, running systemctl restart mattermost resulted in very fast shutdown and startup (<1 second).
Recently noticed that the same command hangs, and then systemd kills the service after 90 seconds. journalctl shows:
Dec 31 10:26:04 <server> systemd[1]: Stopping Mattermost...
Dec 31 10:27:34 <server> systemd[1]: mattermost.service stop-final-sigterm timed out. Killing.
Dec 31 10:27:34 <server> systemd[1]: Unit mattermost.service entered failed state.
Dec 31 10:27:34 <server> systemd[1]: mattermost.service failed.
The mattermost log shows:
2018-12-31T10:26:04.315+1100 info jobs/schedulers.go:140 Stopping schedulers.
2018-12-31T10:26:04.316+1100 info jobs/schedulers.go:75 Schedulers stopped.

2018-12-31T10:26:04.316+1100 info app/web_hub.go:120 stopping websocket hub connections
…and then nothing until it starts up again.
Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to get further insight into this.
Hello @taras.budzyn and sorry for the delay in replying.
I have posted a question to our engineers to confirm, but I don’t believe overriding the username and profile picture is supported via the posts API call due to privacy reasons. We don’t want users to be able to personify other members in the system.
That said, with the two settings enabled (overriding profile pictures and usernames), you can use webhooks and slash commands to create new posts with username and icon of your choice.
You may also use our plugin system, which allows you to completely override the formatting of posts, including the username and profile pictures. More on plugins here: https://developers.mattermost.com/extend/plugins/
Let me know if you have any questions
Good question. I’ve touched base with our team to see if they have insight on this.
