follow up from: https://lemm.ee/post/9562431
I ended up starting over on a t2.medium with Ubuntu and Lemmy 0.18.5.
Still following: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/from_scratch.html
I had to make a few adjustments but that got me as far as:
nginx -s reload
But when I try to point a browser at my host, I don’t get a config screen, just a JSON doc. I haven’t been able to find anything in the logs that seems suspicious.
The only thing I did notice was that “id”, “inbox”, and “outbox” all have the wrong value. They all use:
https://lemmy.[mydomain]
instead of
https://lemmytests.[mydomain] (which is the correct name)
@rikudou@lemmings.world Was super helpful on my last post. I hope I can invoke their favor again.
I aim to do some bug fixes and feature adds come winter when I’m bored, so by all means please submit improvements to the docs as you go 🙏🙂
Happy to share my notes.
Holding off for a bit though. The changes I made seemed to move me forward but I’d like to confirm that my changes at least work for me before I start recommending them to anyone else :)
