@tremor021 @MickLesk

I just tried creating a new OpenArchiver LXC and that does not work either. The installation does not report any errors but the openarchiver service fails to start with the ERR_PNPM_RECURSIVE_EXEC_FIRST_FAIL Command "docker-start" not found error.

OpenArchiver itself is only supporting docker as installation method. I suppose the person who developed this LXC script did some workaround to get it working without docker. It seems like the workaround broke with the new update

Changing pnpm build to pnpm build:oss (in the install and update script) and ExecStart=/usr/bin/pnpm docker-start to ExecStart=/usr/bin/pnpm docker-start:oss in the service seems to have fixed the issue

@tremor021 The Update script misses the systemctl daemon-reload command. Without it, the service won't start after the update:
