Errbit Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Errbit hosting on xCloud gives you a self-hosted error tracker for your applications' exceptions, compatible with the Airbrake API. Deploy Errbit from the OneClick catalog and xCloud starts the pinned 0.11.5 image with a private, authenticated MongoDB 8.2 database, seeds the administrator from the email you enter with a generated password, mounts a persistent volume and publishes it over HTTPS. Public registration is off.

  • No terminal
  • No technical skills needed
  • No lock-in, cancel anytime

What is Errbit?

Errbit is, in its README's words, the open source, self-hosted error catcher: a tool for collecting and managing errors from other applications. It is Airbrake API compliant, so you point the airbrake gem or another compatible notifier at your Errbit server and read the exceptions, with their backtraces, in its web interface. Self-hosted Errbit is an error tracker you run yourself instead of a hosted service such as Airbrake. It is licensed under MIT.

On xCloud this template deploys Errbit 0.11.5 from the upstream image, pinned by digest and published for amd64 only, with a private MongoDB 8.2 database that has authentication on and no host port. Users, apps and notices sit on the errbit_mongodb_data volume. The first start seeds the administrator and search indexes, which can take a few minutes, and SMTP and OAuth stay off until you configure them.

From Sign-Up to Your First Tracked Error In Just 3 Easy Steps

An Errbit stack normally means a Rails app, a private MongoDB with credentials, a seeded administrator, a volume, a domain and a certificate before the first exception arrives. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account, pick Errbit from the OneClick catalog and choose a domain. Enter the administrator email; the password is generated for you.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the pinned Errbit image with a private, authenticated MongoDB 8.2 container that has no published port, mount the errbit_mongodb_data volume, generate the secrets, seed the administrator account and publish it over HTTPS on your domain. The first boot can take a few minutes.

  3. Step 03

    Create Your First App

    Save the administrator password shown in the protected installation credentials and sign in over HTTPS. Create an app in Errbit, then point your Airbrake-compatible notifier at your site using that app's API key.

Everything Errbit Does, On Your Own Server

Errbit runs in full here: an error catcher and web interface on your own domain, with its data in a database you own.

  • Airbrake-Compatible Notices

    Errbit implements the Airbrake API, so an application that uses an Airbrake-compatible notifier can report exceptions to your server instead.

  • Problems And Notices

    Exceptions are collected into problems with individual notices, so you can see what went wrong and how often.

  • Backtraces In The Web UI

    Open a notice to see its detail page and backtrace in the Errbit web interface.

  • A Seeded Administrator

    The administrator account is created at install from the email you enter. Public registration is off, and unauthenticated pages redirect to sign-in.

  • Private MongoDB Included

    MongoDB 8.2 runs as an authenticated sidecar with no published host port, reachable only inside the install's private network.

  • Data That Survives A Restart

    Apps, notices, problems and the administrator user live in the errbit_mongodb_data volume and persisted through an xCloud Restart in QA.

Everything You Need To Run Your Error Tracker 24/7

Managed hosting for Errbit, so the parts that keep it online are not your problem.

  • Errbit 0.11.5 deployed instantly
  • Images pinned by immutable digest
  • Administrator password generated for you
  • Private, authenticated MongoDB
  • Free SSL certificate
  • Server backups and snapshots
  • Server security updates included
  • 30+ server locations
  • Unused balance refunded

What You Can Do With Errbit

  • Catch exceptions from your own apps

    Send errors from applications that use an Airbrake-compatible notifier to a server you control, instead of a hosted error service.

  • Inspect what broke and where

    Open a problem's notices and backtraces in the web interface to trace a failure back to the code that raised it.

  • Keep error data on your infrastructure

    Store apps, notices and problems in a private MongoDB volume on a server you own, so stack traces never leave it.

  • Replace a hosted Airbrake plan

    Because Errbit speaks the Airbrake API, an existing Airbrake notifier setup can be pointed at your own server.

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.

I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.
Dumitru Butucel
xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar Ahmed
Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍
Rahul Singh
So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.
Massimo Villa
Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson El
I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.
Tony Lewis
I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowell
I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan Spinoza
Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

Is Errbit free?

Yes. Errbit is MIT-licensed open source, with its licence file linked here at the pinned v0.11.5 tag. xCloud bills for the Cloud VPS under it, not for Errbit, and there is no per-event fee. Errors and users sit in MongoDB on your own server instead of a vendor's cloud.

Can you self-host Errbit with Docker?

Yes, and this Errbit Docker hosting template does it for you: the upstream errbit/errbit image, pinned by digest, runs beside a private MongoDB container on your own server, with HTTPS in front of port 80. It is not an Errbit cloud account, so exceptions stay on your server.

How much RAM does Errbit need?

The template manifest asks for 2048 MB of RAM, 2 CPU cores and 10 GB of disk as a floor for Errbit and MongoDB together. A busy stream of notices grows MongoDB. The 6 GB tier sold here leaves comfortable room.

How do I sign in to Errbit after deployment?

Use the administrator email you entered at install and the generated password in the protected credentials. Unauthenticated pages redirect to sign-in and public registration is off. Wait for the first boot to finish, because the seed can take a few minutes before logins are accepted.

How do I send errors to Errbit?

Create an app in Errbit, then point your Airbrake-compatible notifier, such as the airbrake gem, at your HTTPS address using that app's API key. Upstream describes Errbit as Airbrake API compliant. This page does not test every notifier, so confirm yours reports a test exception.

Can Errbit run on ARM servers?

No. The pinned Errbit image is published for amd64 only, and the app container will not start on arm64, even though MongoDB itself is multi-architecture. Install it on an x86_64 server. Pick the server type before you deploy, because there is no workaround in this template.

Why does the first Errbit start take a few minutes?

On first boot Errbit waits for MongoDB to become healthy, then seeds the administrator account and search indexes before the site accepts sign-in. Until that finishes the login may fail. Re-running the seed later overwrites that user's password with the stored value, so keep it private.

Can Errbit send email or use OAuth sign-in?

Both are off until you add complete settings in the Environment editor and redeploy. Email needs a delivery method plus the SMTP server and port, and GitHub or Google sign-in needs a client ID and secret and the matching flag set to true. Partial SMTP keys stay commented out.

How do I back up Errbit?

Back up the errbit_mongodb_data volume, which holds users, apps, problems and notices, and keep the stable environment values, SECRET_KEY_BASE and the MongoDB credentials. After a restore, confirm login and that a known problem still appears. The root credentials only apply to an empty volume.

How do I upgrade Errbit?

Your Errbit 0.11.5 install is never rewritten by catalog changes; you adopt a newer template version when ready. Back up the MongoDB volume first and read the upstream release notes, since a newer upstream tag already exists. Then confirm login and a known problem afterwards.

Is Errbit an alternative to Airbrake?

Errbit implements the Airbrake API, so an Airbrake notifier can point at it, but errors are stored on your server instead of with the vendor. Airbrake is a hosted service, and this page makes no feature-parity claim, so test a real application's exceptions before you switch.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
