So…it’s working now? I haven’t touched anything yet, but I just checked my instance again and it works perfectly fine on desktop now. It always worked through Voyager, so I was able to let people know there was an issue. If it comes back I’ll try some of these suggestions to find a more permanent fix.

Meaning I just wait a bit and retry later?

Upgraded to 0.18.5, which now gives me this error:

lemmy-lemmy-ui-1  | API error: FetchError: request to http://lemmy:8536/api/v3/site?auth=AUTH_KEY failed, reason: connect ECONNREFUSED IP_ADDRESS:8536

I created a gist with my compose file: https://gist.github.com/osiriswrecks/26a875576d3bbcf11923d7715ac15e6e. It should be stripped of all private info. I tried changing the version from 0.17.3 to 0.18.0 and the server returns a gateway error after restarting.

Done. And restarting the lemmy container appears to have helped! Now if I click “forgot password” with my email in the user field it at least shows a “sent a reset email” notification. I don’t see an email yet though, either in inbox or spam, and no error logs from what I can tell but I’ll keep looking.

Ah SHIT. Thanks, doing it now.

I updated my docker-compose.yml above to the full file. Does that help?

No, I didn’t have anything there. The docs say everything but the login and password are required, but because I’m using the relay package I don’t know what those would be to begin with because I’m not using an external SMTP with an account.

!!! THAT DID IT.

Thank you so much I would have never gotten to that solution on my own. Works beautifully now.

I’m almost positive that network is already there but I’m definitely going to check the Lemmy-specific logs. I only knew how to check the general server logs when I last looked at it. If I ever get my kid to bed I’ll take another look.

So looking at this again now, am I taking that whole block and adding it to the container’s nginx.conf? If so, does that mean I have to change what port it’s currently listening to (because there’s already a rule in the file for port 80)?

There’s a comment in that server rule that says “this is the port inside docker” and a comment immediately after that says “this is facing the public web”, which confuses me.

The one meant for the Docker container or the one on the host?

I think this is where my lack of experience with Docker is showing.

I spun up a DO droplet and installed nginx, Docker CE, and Docker Compose. Then I went through the instructions on the page you linked to and it set it up just fine but when I went to my droplets IP address it wouldn’t connect. I had to add a config file that pointed traffic coming into the droplet on port 80 to redirect to the Docker container instead. Am I overcomplicating it?

I seem to be having a lot of lag at the moment, and my post was created twice so I’m just going to delete the other one and start from here…

So I have this set up per the instructions. My instance is on a Digital Ocean instance, and I’m using nginx on the host to point to localhost:1235, but that’s about all that conf file is doing. Is there something else I need to do?
