A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I am running 0.17.3 version of Lemmy installed by docker-compose, in front of it I am running NPM (ngnix proxy manager) which handles all of my public facing docker images.

The local site seems to function except for one area, I can't search for or properly federate other instances. I believe I have narrow the problem down to one particular function:

https://lemmy.timgilbert.be/c/reddit@lemmy.ml

This results in a response in the browser:

404: couldnt_find_community

And an error log in docker logs for the server:

2023-06-13T01:48:29.196432Z  WARN Error encountered while processing the incoming HTTP request: lemmy_server::root_span_builder: couldnt_find_community: Failed to resolve actor for reddit@lemmy.ml

LemmyError { message: Some("couldnt_find_community"), inner: Failed to resolve actor for reddit@lemmy.ml, context: "SpanTrace" }

If I hit this same URL but from a working site:

https://lemmy.world/c/reddit@lemmy.ml

and it receives a response.

I also see other other errors/warning all of which indicates some problem with my settings for in-bound:

I suspect that it has to do with having two NGINX wrappers, one that is setup by Lemmy's docker-compose and one for my NPM.

Anyone else have similar problems?

I suspect you've manually configured NPM to point directly to the lemmy-ui container. This will break stuff. The ansible provided nginx config routes different URIs to lemmy and lemmy-ui.

You might be on to something. I have a single NPM host which is pointing to the UI, but I do see that in the ngnix config configuring the two locations but of course I've only mapped one. I'll study this a bit more, thanks for the tip.
