Update: I am trying to get my hands on the ssl certificate that is assigned to the domain to install it on my new server. Strato makes this really hard by not providing a download for the files i need (would be too easy i guess). Does anyone have an idea how to get them if not from the host themselves?

i redirected the domain to the original hoster for a bit, maybe you tried in that time :D

Hello everyone, since this is my first post, i hope i am at the right place :D

I am hosting a webring for solarpunk websites and wanted to move this from the corporate hoster to the raspberry pi that was collecting dust in my cupboard to hopefully host it on solar in the future.

I installed nginx and put the website there, configured the portforwarding on my router (ports 80 and 443 to 80 and 443 on the pi) and gave it a fixed local IP. I then used ddclient to update the IP of the pi to the dyndns-API of my hoster (which i will keep for the domain for now). It is reachable through HTTP (http://solarpunk-ring.net/) but refuses connection for HTTPS.

The Internet is full of AI-generated tutorials on how to self host and use a DynDNS-service, but i couldn't find any info on this excact issue.

I assume it is not the DynDNS since that would otherwise also not refer to the correct IP with HTTP without S. Now i don't know if it is the router or nginx or the pi itself refusing connection. The error log of nginx is empty. Ports are allowed in firewall, i also tried disabling the firewall, same error.

I have no idea what to check next and as i said, the ai-shit i get from my search engine isn't helping either.

Sorry if this is the wrong place.

So is it like a webring but random?

idk, people die regularely while train surfing. One slip and you not only die but know what it feels like to have your extremities cut off. Extremely dangerous and not even easy to do, because train yards are camera controlled and because of many incidents the awareness and security on cargo train yards is pretty high. Trains do stop some times to let other trains pass and they do stand for hours sometimes, but since europe is so densly populated, you will constantly pass through train yards and stations. You would have to hide for hours, tensed up to not fall and deal with the constant loud noise of the trains. I would honestly rather pay the extreme high prices for tickets than to be in discomfort and the risk of dying for hours. Even if paying for tickets is not punk and the whole system behind it is totally corrupt and fucked.

I would start with some HTML tutorial on the internet and host that on nekoweb or neocities. That way you can concentrate on learing to create a website and deal with the hosting stuff later. May people offer free templates, too. Just surf around on the websites there and see what other people make :) And yes, linux is way better than windows in every way. If you mostly use stuff like your browser or steam, it is not hard to switch, either.
