G’day, I just got Lemmy going on my site https://apollo.town and it doesn’t appear to be federating. I ran through the Lemmy troubleshooting docs and I can return valid JSON from the site, but I can’t look up anything on lemmy.ml from my site - although I can look up my site from lemmy.ml.
Caddy is my reverse proxy with the world’s simplest config:
root@apollotown:~/lemmy# cat Caddyfile
# apollo.town Lemmy instance
apollo.town {
reverse_proxy :4040
}
So you want to have this:
networks: # only ports facing any connection from outside lemmyexternalproxy: lemmybridge: # communication between lemmy services lemmyinternal: driver: bridge internal: true
And in the container this.
lemmy: image: dessalines/lemmy:0.17.3 hostname: lemmy networks: - lemmyinternal - lemmybridge restart: always
(leave the rest as is, you can name the new network however you want)
You’re a bloody genius, thank you, that appears to have solved the problem.
Nice! This confirms it, I’ll check tomorrow to share this in the repo to update the documentation.
