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.

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:

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

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.

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.
