Has anyone tried creating a KBIN server using the Docker instructions since Saturday? I got a development server running on Saturday and I decided to bring up a production ready version on Sunday, but now I'm running into two errors while creating it.

First:

In these instructions:

$ sudo chown 82:82 public/media
$ sudo chown 82:82 var
$ cp .env.example .env

There is no directory "var" so the chown fails

Second:

When running docker compose build --pull --no-cache

It now fails with this:

=> [php app_php 20/21] RUN rm -Rf docker/ 0.2s
=> ERROR [php app_php 21/21] RUN set -eux; mkdir -p var/cache var/log; if [ -f composer.json ]; then composer dump-autoload --classmap-authoritative --no-dev; compose ...

This also seems to relate to the var directory, and so must be part of a recent change in the build that relates to the var directory.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

I have tried creating an instance on both Debian 11 and Ubuntu 22.04 with both Docker and the manual steps.

I can get the build to work fine. But at best I get 500 errors with no signs of logs as to why, not in postgres, not in nginx, not in redis or rabbitmq or even syslog.

On Docker i have both the kbin_messenger and kbin container boot looping with an error about creating cache directories. But since the containers are restarting I cant even get into bash on them to see why.

I finally said fuck it and ran the compose for "prod" and the containers start but again, 500 errors.

At this point....i give up i feel. I would love to host an instance and I am familiar with some of these modules (ie: NGINX, redis and postgres) but with how this is built, I dont see where the breakpoint is.

I operate my own homelab and have a background in SRE, so I figured I'd try out the same. I've wrangled a Mastodon instance install before, so this couldn't be too hard, right?

My approach started by using containers via lxc as a quick and dirty way of getting a development environment that enabled me to figure out if it worked and then see if I could then wrap it into a proper docker container and look at potentially publishing that.

On my first attempt, I did the manual route. I skipped the redis, rabbitmq, and postgres installs as I already operate those elsewhere on the network, but I got everything else running. Unfortunately, I also experienced the 500 errors. Most of the front page loaded, except for the content where the 500 error was displayed. Even with some digging around, I couldn't find a clear path to figuring out what was causing the 500 error, as the Mercure hub was seeing subscribers connect and disconnect. Gave up.

I then figured maybe the docker route might be easier/streamlined. I'm not a fan of duplicating services, but I thought that if the core workflow was solid enough, I could put effort into splitting them apart and go from there. Unfortunately, I don't even get past the docker-compose build for dev. Docker compose hangs forever.

Yeah. Kbin install made me eat some humble pie for sure. I think someone called me a normie in a lemmy thread describing my troubles. Lol.

To be fair some of the parts like mercure and rabbitmq im unfamiliar with. But it was a stone cold stumper for me and that’s rare. I’m fairly familiar with Linux admin, and even some of the tooling like docker. But I just couldn’t get it to work in a cohesive way. I ran plenty of Linux servers from Drupal instances, Postgres, nginx for all sorts of shit, etc etc.

My lemmy instance took….45 minutes to roll out. Though I already had an Ansible box sitting in my lab.

I don't have an account on codeberg, so sending a bug report here. Hope it finds its way ...

When linking to a federated community with ! name@host.tld (eg. !newyuzupiracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com ), kbin incorrectly links to [https://kbin.social/m/!newyuzupiracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com](https://kbin.social/m/[!newyuzupiracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com](/c/newyuzupiracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com)) (notice the extra ! ).

There is a live example of this bug in https://kbin.social/m/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com/t/62700/Fully-understand-if-this-is-impossible-but-is-there-any#entry-comment-269796

The most important feature needed is comments sorting by TOP. The microblog page already has this. Why not post pages?

[-] pa79@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

I've been trying to set up my own kbin instance but without success. Is there a way to diable SSL? I'm running the instance on a raspberry pi at home behind a reverse proxy which already handles all the certificates for https. This already works great for my mastodon instance.

I tried installing the docker container and also manually but both times it expects https instead of simple http and I can't seem to find the place to change this. There's no mention of SSL in the nginx configuration file and I don't really have any experience with docker and where to change the configuration in such a container.

Hello there!

In my feed all pictures are stretched, is this a product of the layout? Can I change this somehow? I am using the progressive web app on Android.

Am I doing something wrong or are badges not implemented correctly yet? I set them up in my magazine and even manually input one into a post but it doesn't seem to display anywhere. I assume they are supposed to show similarly to Reddit post flairs. If the feature needs more time cooking, that's fine. I just want to make sure it's not just me.

[-] Emotional_Series7814@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

I’m on mobile, and hitting More on the comments section of my profile looks very different from when I hit More anywhere else.

Searching on "active" magazines often indicates at the bottom of the webpage that there are several search webpage results.

Attempting to go to a subsequent page always yields the "first" page results.

[-] lerba@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I'm having issues subscribing to magazines on sopuli.xyz - for example !meditation@sopuli.xyz or !geopol@sopuli.xyz bring no results when searching. Am I supposed to create an account there as well?

[-] ForestOrca@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

The issue I had with Up/Down Vote, and Boost throwing errors appears to be resolved. Huzzah!!!

[-] asjmcguire@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Hey @ernest I tried subscribing to https://kbin.social/rss?magazine=kbinMeta in my FreshRSS reader and it says a feed could not be found - so I checked with the W3C validator and sure enough - https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fkbin.social%2Frss%3Fmagazine%3DkbinMeta it's not at all happy with the feed.

[-] DocSophie@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Am I dumb or do external links just link back to the kbin thread?

For context, I've only tried out these links here in this thread.

Does the notification system work? I don't see any notifications even though I should.

[-] themadcodger@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

It might be turned off in settings. I'm getting notifications.

[-] Hypx@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Starting to see notifications now. Guess it's fixed?

[-] Zedstrian@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Too many posts weren't federating with kbin so I had to make a lemmy account to avoid missing comments from non-kbin communities, so hopefully the federation issues get fixed at some point.

[-] Flames5123@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

When I do an action on the site after like an hour, it takes me through the dumb cloudflare thing. I'm already logged in, why do I need to go through it every freaking hour?? This is an AWFUL user experience. I say "remember me" not "forget me in an hour"

[-] DessertStorms@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I'm sure you're aware there has been an issue with people/bots spamming CP on some lemmy instances, I'm not sure if I happened to see them before removal, or if removal still isn't federating properly (since I know the admins/mods have been trying to implement additional solutions), either way, these posts were still showing up on all/new last night/early this morning (GMT), so it might just be worth double checking on your end if there is any way to stop this.

The Markdown tables written in a lemmy post aren't showing properly

For example, at the bottom of this post
But the original post looks good

[-] speck@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Longer comments have a band at the bottom of the text with a double arrow which, when click on it, is meant expand and show the rest of the text. On mobile, it doesn't uncover all the text. Is there an option to disable this feature so that comments are not collapsed?

[-] DrowR@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Unsure which side the problem lies or it's just unfixable atm, but some(didn't check all) of my subscribed communities that are on Lemmy instances are unfortunately not properly synced.
And I think one thing that should be of highest priority is, a way to see comments that had been edited.

Hi, not sure if this is the right thread but here goes.

Issue:
Threads do not seem to federate properly.

Description:
Until a month ago or so, submitting a thread to a federated instance (tested on: feddit.it, sh.itjust.works) threw an error page, but the thread was regularly posted. Example: https://feddit.it/post/1868675

As of at least 2 weeks ago, the error page remains but threads do not federate anymore. Example:
https://kbin.social/m/teoriamusicale@feddit.it/t/546143/Analisi-di-Pezzi-Pop-5-Faith-Hill-The-Way-You

If it can be of help, posts, links and comments seem properly federated to the same abovementioned instances, i.e. appear on target instances within a few seconds. No error displayed when submitting.

Hope this can be addressed sooner or later. Right now I'm using local accounts on those instances to work this around.

[-] wagesj45@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I'm begging for someone to take a look at the CSRF error that is still plaguing the site. Sometimes I can't upvote posts/comments withing 60 seconds of loading a page. I have to hit refresh every single time I want to vote on something or I'm taken to the error page.
