Now to get it into a community app store for testing purposes...
Hey
@hzrd149 , you have a community app store for Umbrel, right? Would you be able to host this for testing on Umbrel before
@Geektoshi submits it to the official app store?
Thanks for tour service Geektoshi lots of folks asked for Umbrella support and some sort of UI. You're making some Nostriches very happy Sir 🫡.
just trying to do my part. thank you for the work you're doing.
Running into some trouble with the manual install. The directory ~/umbrel/apps couldn't be found, so it just dumped the repo directory into my ~/umbrel directory.
Is it meant to go into the ~/umbrel/umbrel/app-data directory instead?
I went ahead and put it there, but still doesn't want to install. Can't find any such file or directory named "haven" even after I cd into the app-data directory.
I'm touching some grass for a bit but happy to dive back in tonight!
Oh nice, right when I'm winding down my wot relay and ready to fire up a Haven relay. Perfect timing.
No problem! Enjoy yourself some grass-touching!
When you're back, it looks like the directory it can't find is ".scripts/app" from the install command you have listed on the Github page.
thanks it was great. i'm back though and working on creating a community store for this. i'll ping you when done.
Cool. Gotta head out shortly to go wrangle some teenagers. Teaching our youth group about Bitcoin tonight at church.
I'll look for updates when I get back.
Wow! Before I even have to head out the door!
I installed from the community app store you created. Decided to go with the simple config to get started. Plugged in an npub and username so it can name my relays, saved the configuration and got a success message, then hit the "Restart Now" button and got this error:
Did it maybe install the GUI container but didn't install the relay?
i'm a dummy, i refactored a few things and forgot to make the update in Python. brb.
ok i think i got it if you want to update
Ok, no longer getting the error. When accessing my Umbrel through my local network and I hit the "Restart Now" button, it tells me that Haven has successfully restarted, but the indicator in the top right still says "HAVEN Stopped."
Interestingly, when I access my Umbrel through Tor and do the same thing, the indicator says "HAVEN Running" for a few seconds, and then tells me it stopped. Logs show "havenkit-haven_haven_relay_1 | 2025/10/22 05:07:48 Environment variable OWNER_NPUB not set" even though I have set an npub and saved it in the Simple Configuration option.
That said, if I switch to the Full Configuration option, the npub I had previously set does not show, but it DOES show back up if I switch back to the Simple Configuration, even though the logs seem to show that an npub still has not been set.
Also, is there anywhere in the UI that the user will be able to get the Tor address for the relay? I am assuming it would have a separate onion address from the main Umbrel dashboard one, like other services running on Umbrel do.
I did catch the issue when switching between configs a bit ago so i'll get that taken care of. i know you say it shows "HAVEN Stopped" but is the relay running even though it says stopped?
As for the Tor address, not yet, but i will look into it!
I am guessing no. The only things I am seeing for "haven_relay_1" in the loggs is "Environment variable OWNER_NPUB not set." The bulk of the rest of the logs are for "haven_config_ui_1" and they are all ""GET /api/status HTTP/1.1" 200 -"
I tried this in Umbrel. Haven service is not starting. Also, it's not persisting configuration changes. I added npub and other details but when I reopened everything was gone.
yup got the same report elsewhere, looking into it right now :-)
yes, i had to create one for testing. thanks for looking out though!
ok i think we should be good now if you want to update and try again.
should be fixed if you want to update and try again.
Nodes all the way 😊
Okay haven is up now but there are problems. Check screenshots below.
1. Import failed and there is a typo marked in red.
2. Wrong relay url.
3. Add and display some relays by default here, and maybe give bulk add option.
4. Add "Save Configuration" button on every step of the configuration, not only at the last step.
5. I first did quick configuration, then manual configuration. But I think it's taking preference from quick config. Because I changed relay name in manual config but it's showing old relay name.
Nice 👍
I can handle typos lol...interesting about the import error that is fixed. I'll have to double check that its pulling the right image from docker hub.
I think that incorrect relay URL may also be affecting the Blossom server.
After updating, I set up a reverse proxy to do some testing and so far I am able to write to my outbox relay, and it is blasting the note to the relays I have in the blaster config section, so the next thing I went to test was uploading to the Blossom server. However, Amethyst wouldn't even let me add the Blossom server.
Thinking it might be an Amethyst issue, I added it in Bouquet and that seemed to work, but Amethyst was still unable to successfully upload to the server. It seemed to get stuck when trying to re-download the image. That being the case, I decided to upload via Bouquet and copy/paste the URL into Amethyst, and this is what I got:
I manually corrected the URL:
When I posted the note, the image loaded. Strangely, though, it rotated the image when I uploaded it. This was a portrait orientation on my phone:
Perfect bug report, will add it to the to do list.
I do think maybe the wrong image is being pulled because this issue was also fixed in the latest image.
Any ideas on how to figure out the onion address for the relay? Would definitely like to test accessing it via Tor.
Some ideas, but let me work through some of these bug reports before I get there.
Yep. My request was prior to the creation of his own community app store.
Since you're here, though. I was wanting to play with Blob Box, but it doesn't seem to want to let me add any npubs to the whitelist. I keep getting this error when I try:
working on the url issue right now, but import is fixed. will let you know when i push a new image out. part of the issue was that "haven --import" was hanging and it never allowed the relay container to restart.

Thanks 😄
Everything seems to be working fine now.
I tested import, blastr and blossom. All good 👍
perfect, thanks!
Ok I found one issue. I couldn't find blossom file in umbrel directory so I checked the container and the blossom file was present at /haven instead of /haven/blossom and 'blossom' word appended to it.
I think you missed a '/'
good catch!
I fixed it by adding a slash at the end, in media storage path.
perfect, i'll make the change tomorrow and push a new image.
@Dikaios1517 this will probably fix your issue as well.
Folder permission issue, by default folders in docker are owned by the root user to I need to include a script to change the permissions so the app can access it
Is there anything in Umbrel, Start 9, etc which requires rootful containers? Haven itself doesn't need to be run as root (I'm running it on a Rootless Podman container myself).
Nothing that I've found. Like I said, the only issue is Docker defaulting the volume to be owned by root.
Yeah, so in this case the besr pratic3 here is just to start the container with the right UID / GID etc for both Haven and the other tool that he mentioned. Those should be isolated (and daemonless if possible).
good feedback gents, didn't even think about this!

Not sure what the issue is, but I am unable to install Haven Kit now. I uninstalled it to see if doing a fresh install and only typing in "haven.brightbolt.net" would resolve my multiple URL prefix issue, but it won't let me reinstall now.
Hopped over to my other Umbrel and tried installing there to confirm whether it was because of previously having Haven Kit installed and I couldn't install it there, either, even though it had never been installed on that device before.
Install gets to "Installing 1%" and then goes back to the standard "Install" button. Seems to create the haven-kit directory in my app-data folder, along with at least some of the required files, but no icon shows up on my Umbrel dashboard to launch the app.
Not sure but I'm doing a bugfix release in a couple days so I'll see if there's any issues on my end.
Project repo down below and thank you to @Dikaios1517 for posting the note that inspired me to work on this project.
