I wanna be back for develop another UI for Lemmy, which will look like modern Reddit, but better.

Earlier i install lemmy with this guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fzCUEpFnDg

but now, devs made changes around nginx, so... i cant install Lemmy now. Docker sends me errors))

If you are interested in developing a new UI, please contact me, I need the help of people who understand the installation issue.

Docker-compose been finished without errors, all good, but site doesnt work. I think there is some kind of error around the nginx installation on my 7 and 8 steps.

only http://ww.uebishe.com/ (straight HTTP and WWW) respond me:

Or, I have made an nginx config file that will work for you

If you already created an nginx configuration file, move it somewhere else. Then, get the new configuration file to the nginx folder, and then restart the nginx service by running these two commands:

sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Kradyz/Tutorials/main/files/uebishe.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/uebishe.conf

sudo systemctl restart nginx

Ah! So you skipped this step:

Now i skip old step about “wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/main/templates/nginx.conf -O lemmy.conf”

You need to have the lemm.conf file under /etc/nginx/sites-enabled, this is the file that tells nginx how to manage the connection. Don't skip that step! Get that file and modify it by adding your domain name

Ok. I go try it from scratch again.

Yes i install on clear VDS fresh instance.

Ok, i write my steps here, hope you can help me and other users :)

  1. Install VDS ubuntu 20

  2. Go to Putty, connect ssh with root;pass

  3. apt -y update && apt -y upgrade

  4. apt -y install vim

  5. Now i need instal docker

apt -y install ca-certificates curl gnupg lsb-release

curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg

echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null

apt -y update

apt -y install docker-ce

  1. Now need delete Apache for stability nginx:

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 stop

sudo apt-get purge apache2

  1. Lets go install nginx

apt -y install nginx

sudo systemctl enable nginx

sudo systemctl start nginx

sudo systemctl status nginx

Ok, all works. There are no errors.

  1. Install certbot for https

apt install certbot python3-certbot-nginx

certbot certonly --nginx -d uebishe.com,www.uebishe.com

write my mail, and agree all steps

  1. wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/main/templates/nginx.conf -O lemmy.conf

change params on

vi lemmy.conf

systemctl restart nginx

And now we have problem:

and journalctl -xe told me:

[-] Sal@mander.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

Try removing the lemmy.conf file from /etc/nginx/sites-enabled,

And then run:

sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Kradyz/Tutorials/main/files/uebishe.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/uebishe.conf

sudo systemctl restart nginx

[-] SOVERSHENEN@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

nah, the same problem.

in addition, now I have run out of the limit for reissuing SSL certificates. Due to the fact that I cleaned and installed it from scratch more than five times. It seems that the limit will be reset tomorrow.

[-] Sal@mander.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

Oh no! It is possible to save your SSL certificates by simply copying the files into your computer, then you don't need to run the certbot again.

[-] SOVERSHENEN@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

This is the least of the problems. At least it is solved simply by waiting :D

Maybe you will record a new video manual about how you manage to install lemmy 0.17?

[-] Sal@mander.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

I can do that, but I can't right now, I am very busy writing for my thesis unfortunately :/

If I manage to write enough tonight I might be able to do it tomorrow.

[-] SOVERSHENEN@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, I understand, anytime you're free.

It's just that in the coming months I have a lot of time to continue developing the UI and I decided that it would be useful for the Lemmy community. Considering that I have already done this before. Hope i dont get stuck in such a stupid stage :D

[-] Sal@mander.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

I think that if you use the new docker-compile file, the one that includes the NGINX block, then you might not need to go through the step of the nginx configuration.

I have not tested this myself though, but I can test it when I make the updated tutorial.

https://shownotes.opensourceisawesome.com/lemmy/

now I'm trying to make an installation using this guide, but I'm facing similar problems. unfortunately, my knowledge is not enough to solve them, but I think it will be interesting for you to familiarize yourself with this in order to gain some knowledge, I do not know.

I may be wrong, but it seems all the problems are due to nginx :D

UPD: I also tried to do the following. I installed version 0.16.4 with this guide from opensourceisawesome.com, it was installed normally.

But when I tried to upgrade to 0.17 according to the official guide, I ran into problems again, the site crashed.
