User Creation

Your Cloudbox username and password are set up in paperless by default. Only do the following if you want additional users

To add a user run the command: docker exec -it paperless-ng python manage.py createsuperuser and follow the prompts.

Ensure the consume directory is not deleted

Your cloudplow settings may delete empty directories. If this is the case, you will need to exclude the consume directory from cloduplow.

To do this:

1. cd /opt/cloudplow

2. nano config.json

3. Find rclone_excludes and add "Documents/paperless/consume/**" (Ensure json is formatted correctly. Remember to add comma to line above if extending the list.

   For example, after editing this section may look something like this:

        "rclone_excludes": [
           "**partial~",
           "**_HIDDEN~",
           ".unionfs/**",
           ".unionfs-fuse/**",
           "**.fuse_hidden**",
           "Documents/paperless/consume/**"
         ],
   

   If you have multiple remote/uploader pairs you may need to do this for all of them.

4. Ctrl X, Y to save

5. sudo systemctl restart cloudplow
