UPDATE:

If anyone else is running into consistently rising disk I am pretty sure this is my issue (RE logs running with no cap):

https://lemmy.eus/post/172518

Trying out ^ and will update with my findings if it helps.

 

Any helpful tips for general care and feeding I should be doing on a regular basis?

I know I need to keep an eye on updates and re-run my ansible setup form time to time to stay up to date.

But I have also been keeping an eye on my VPS metrics to see when/if I need to beef up the server.

One thing I am noticing is a steadily increasing disk utilization (which mostly makes sense except its seeming a bit faster than I expected as most all media is links to external sites rather than uploading media directly to my instance).

Anything I can do to manage that short of just adding more space? Like are there logs/cached content that need to be purged from time to time?

Thank you!

 

Folks been planning their HC toons/profs for when official drops?

Been trialing a few on unofficial Bloodsail and having a blast.

Feeling good about Priest with ench (until GMW) and then tailoring/skinning.

๐Ÿ’– man ima dumb dumb. Most excellent, thank you!

 

I have just been hand-jamming lemmy domains I know about in the allowed instances section of my new instance.

Is there a way to just allow all? Or maybe a running list somewhere of domains I can copy/paste?

Seeing a bunch of:

WARN Error encountered while processing incoming HTTP request: lemmy_server::root_span_builder: Domain is not in allowlist

Flowing through my logs and from what I can tell, it doesn't seem to tell me WHICH domain I should be trying to add ๐Ÿฅฒ

Any thoughts? Thank you!

Thanks!. Yeah I gotta figure that out. Something funky going on.

There are several communities in there atm but I'm getting some "odd" federation behavior.

If you are interested in federating there are two ways I have seen it work (again, warning, note that it is NSFW ๐Ÿ˜€ ):

  • use your search feature on your main instance and enter [!butt_frenzy@booty.world](/c/butt_frenzy@booty.world) then you can subscribe

  • or, from your main instance, alter your url to: {your main instance}/c/butt_frenzy@booty.world so for example if your main instance is lemmy.ml that would be: https://lemmy.ml/c/butt_frenzy@booty.world

^ butt_frenzy is one of the communities on booty.world for example.

Gotta be a better way, and I am probs doing something wrong. Will work on it. Open to feedback if anyone has any advice though haha.

Thanks.

Noice many thanks! I'll give it a shot.

Oh snap, yes I am using Digital Ocean.

Looks like you might have forgotten to add the link, mind chucking that in when you get a chance?

Thanks, this seems like a good lead as well.

Cool thanks! Last thing for now, and then I'll go do some debugging.

Dumb Q: The lemmy install includes an SMTP server correct? Like I don't need to use an external service for that?

Nice! Thanks your mention of the config.hjson makes me wonder lol. I probably goofed that too.

I did the ansible install which I believe just adds orchestration on top of the Docker install. I'll ssh in and try the docker-compose command.

Do you know, if I did goof the email config, can I just tweak the config locally and then re-run ansible? Or do I need to do some manual tweaks to the deployed solution? Or I suppose at this point it might be easier to just blow the instance away and start fresh.

 

Any good resources/Discord servers (to discuss with other devs) for troubleshooting user login/email verification issues?

I have a self-hosted instance and was able to make the admin user, but when trying to create a new test user, the user does not get the verification email.

I assume its related to this issue because I see the same issue but on login rather than sign up: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1080

I am able to create the new user but get no email verification and then when I try to login the login button gets stuck with the spinner. No frontend console logs so I assume something is dying server-side and not bubbling the error.

Really just looking for some guidance/links to docs on how I can access logs to troubleshoot server-side errors (and my gut tells me maybe an email issue but I am a novice in this space so not sure).

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you.
