Mozilla’s Sync Server for YunoHost

Lire ce readme en français.

This package allow you to install ffsync quickly and simply on a YunoHost server. If you don't have YunoHost, please see here to know how to install and enjoy it.

Overview

The Sync Server provides a replacement for Firefox’s default server (hosted at Mozilla).

By default, a server set up will defer authentication to the Mozilla-hosted accounts server at https://accounts.firefox.com. So you will still have to authenticate at Mozilla, but the storage of your information will be done on your host.

Shipped version: 1.9.1

Solving problems with Android

The sure-fire way to know what Sync on Android is really doing is to observe the Android device log using adb logcat. You’ll want to bump your log-level:

adb shell setprop log.tag.FxAccounts VERBOSE

Then, you can observe the log using:

adb logcat | grep FxAccounts

It’s best to observe the log while you force a sync from the Android Settings App. You should see output like:

D FxAccounts(...) fennec :: BaseResource :: HTTP GET https://token.stage.mozaws.net/1.0/sync/1.5
...
D FxAccounts(...) fennec :: BaseResource :: HTTP GET https://sync-4-us-east-1.stage.mozaws.net/
