You can see the server side logs for errors:
sudo docker logs lemmy_lemmy_1The errors there might shed more light into what is going on.
I’m assuming you put the admin user and password into the lemmy.hjson file and are trying to log in with those?
huh.. the guide i followed didn't mention a lemmy.hjson file.. let me start again!
The documentation is not currently in the greatest state, from what I saw. There is literally nothing other than the default config for how to setup email / SMTP.
this was also on my list of questions... i've seen nothing and i need to point things to smtp2go.. but at the moment i think i'm going to hold off.. i don't have the time or resources to be an early adopter..
I didn't mean to discourage you! It's really not that bad, if you like system-administration. I enjoy it, but it can get pretty frustrating.
my experiment was largely a knee jerk reaction to things going on over at reddit..i think there are plenty more people more capable than i am of assisting in growing this environment.. once i can contribute by simply offering up compute i'll be back.. for now I'll have to enjoy from afar.
