Vaultwarden install issue

[flugheim]

Trying to use the helperscript for Vaultwarden, but it fails on the same point each time: "⠧ Building [======================> ] 523/546: grass_compiler, libsqlite3-sys(build), fern, o" . It never pass this point. Any ideas what to do? I have tried multiple times now, and it fails on the same point.

You didn't show the error message.
In any case, I'd recommend running vaultwarden with docker compose. It's about as simple as it gets, and you don't need to compile anything.

Ask the developers of the helperscript or try to install vauldwarden by following the official documentation and ask in the vauldwarden support channels if you run into trouble:
- https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden/wiki
- https://vaultwarden.discourse.group/

The added benefit is that if you succeed you won't need a helper script anymore since you then can do it by yourself
Please don't get this the wrong way: It's just way more likely that somebody in the Vaultwarden forum can help you since propably around 90% if not 99% of the people there actually are using and developing Vaultwarden. In this forum however there are a lot of folks who don't (inlcuding me) and thus can not really help you anyhow

I agree but the helper script (see https://community-scripts.github.io/ProxmoxVE/scripts?id=vaultwarden ) is for an lxc and since running docker containers inside lxc is not without possible problems I can understand why the developer of the script decided to go the route without docker. Personally I think it would have been better if he would have just described how to setup docker inside a VM but not every would agree with me on that take

FWIW I have two instances of Vaultwarden. The first/main one is (irrelevant to Proxmox) using docker compose on a Debian 12 server. The second (backup) is an LXC container in Proxmox. For this IIRC I just created an alpine linux LXC container and did "apk install vaultwarden".
I can check when I'm home.

I note that the OP has not (yet) posted the error they get. Maybe all that compiling of rust requires more resources than the container was given (vaultwarden itself requires basically nothing, but compiling it is a different story).
