[SOLVED] Help with Lemmy setup
  • Awesome, thank you.

    I am in the same boat, although I am quite comfortable with most tech things, NGINX is a new world for me.

    I'm wondering if I should migrate my NPM to caddy or something.

    Thanks for that info! Unfortunately, trying to get my instance up using that config is proving to be quite difficult with my setup. I found another user with a similar setup to me that posted a guide and even that gives me the same problem with ONLY communities on lemmy.ml

    https://lemmy.dcrich.net/post/1150

    I am using the nginx posted on there, as well as nginx proxy manager on top of it which manages my HTTPS / SSL.

    According to everyone that followed that guide, there are zero issues for them, but for me, nothing works on lemmy.ml which is unfortunate as there are a lot of communities I want to subscribe to on here.

    I'm just using the default one from the instructions, pasted it below. It may also be worth noting that I am using Nginx Proxy Manager on top of all this for ssl. I have set all custom locations (api, feeds, nodeinfo, pictrs) but I have left the advanced section blank.

    worker_processes 1; events { worker_connections 1024; } http { upstream lemmy { # this needs to map to the lemmy (server) docker service hostname server "lemmy:8536"; } upstream lemmy-ui { # this needs to map to the lemmy-ui docker service hostname server "lemmy-ui:1234"; }

    server {
        # this is the port inside docker, not the public one yet
        listen 80;
        # change if needed, this is facing the public web
        server_name localhost;
        server_tokens off;
    
        gzip on;
        gzip_types text/css application/javascript image/svg+xml;
        gzip_vary on;
    
        # Upload limit, relevant for pictrs
        client_max_body_size 20M;
    
        add_header X-Frame-Options SAMEORIGIN;
        add_header X-Content-Type-Options nosniff;
        add_header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block";
    
        # frontend general requests
        location / {
            # distinguish between ui requests and backend
            # don't change lemmy-ui or lemmy here, they refer to the upstream definitions on top
            set $proxpass "http://lemmy-ui";
    
            if ($http_accept = "application/activity+json") {
              set $proxpass "http://lemmy";
            }
            if ($http_accept = "application/ld+json; profile=\"https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams\"") {
              set $proxpass "http://lemmy";
            }
            if ($request_method = POST) {
              set $proxpass "http://lemmy";
            }
            proxy_pass $proxpass;
    
            rewrite ^(.+)/+$ $1 permanent;
            # Send actual client IP upstream
            proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
            proxy_set_header Host $host;
            proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        }
    
        # backend
        location ~ ^/(api|pictrs|feeds|nodeinfo|.well-known) {
            proxy_pass "http://lemmy";
            # proxy common stuff
            proxy_http_version 1.1;
            proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
            proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    
            # Send actual client IP upstream
            proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
            proxy_set_header Host $host;
            proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        }
    }
    

    }

  • Can’t subscribe to lemmy.ml communities
  • @[email protected] Thanks for the reply. I have done that and can successfully see the community. However, when I try to subscribe it is stuck at pending. Cancelling and trying again doesn't seem to fix it.

    I only have this issue with communities on lemmy.ml from my instance lemmy.notdead.net

    Can’t subscribe to lemmy.ml communities

    Hey everyone,

    I finally figured out how to get my Lemmy instance up and running. Everything seems to work great except for the fact that I can’t subscribe to any lemmy.ml communities; it just stays stuck at pending. All other communities on other instances subscribe successfully.

    Is this an issue on my end or is there an issue with lemmy.ml?
