  • Hi. thanks.

    i logged in and found the port number in the /etc/sites/sites_enabled/<domain>.conf

    i did the merge again, and via domain and the local port i get the following:

    i logged into portainer and found this message many times for <domain>_lemmy-ui_1:

    API error: FetchError: request to http://lemmy:8536/api/v3/site? failed, reason: getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN lemmy
    

    in <domain>_lemmy_1 it says this many times:

    thread 'main' panicked at 'Failed to load settings file, see documentation (https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/configuration.html): LemmyError { message: None, inner: "unknown field `use_tls`, expected one of `smtp_server`, `smtp_login`, `smtp_password`, `smtp_from_address`, `tls_type`" near 40:12, context: SpanTrace [] }', crates/utils/src/settings/mod.rs:20:20
    note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
    

    mm… this use_tls field 🤔…

    On the ansible machine, i have this use_tls in the email section in inventory/host_vars/<domain>/config.hjson. i’ll check if that field is still allowed

    in the defaults.hjson (mentioned in repy below), the use_tls isn’t mentioned, so i removed that keyword, and Lemmy version 0.18 is up🙌




  • if you’re a registered user on a server, when you click [Communities], there you can see

    • [local] communities - Those created on your server
    • [all] communities - Those local and also those already federated to your server

    You can subscribe to a community of any server which your server can federate with. The list of connected servers you can find via the /instances link at the bottom of the page.

    There’s an easy to use community search tool here https://browse.feddit.de/

    If you’ve found a community you like to follow, translate the original URL to a federated URL You do this by putting the community URL of the original server in the search bar; e.g.

    (This search functionality is available in the web interface, but not yet available in the Jerboa app)

    The result will list the federated URL. A federated URL has the form:
    https://<your server>/c/<community-id>@<other server>

    Visiting the federated link, and clicking [Subscribe] will make that community be federated to your server from now on. Your subscribed community will now also be listed under the [all] communities listing on your server.
