What's on and around line 32 in the config?
I did the ansible install, other than mail setup, the instructions were easy to follow.
{% if lemmy_env_vars is defined and lemmy_env_vars|length > 0 %}
you're not the first suggesting this. Some guides I've found online suggest to use the Ansible files "because they're less broken".
At this point I'm wondering if the documentation is bad "on purpose" to prevent too many script kiddies to install their own instance.
So did you found what the problem was?
- Just a lemmyer who had lots of problems setting up its instance.
Nope, the documentation suggests 3 ways for installation: from scratch, docker and ansible.
I tried both from scratch and docker and I'm stuck. Eventually I'll try the ansible way, but first I have to learn ansible...
I'm far from not disappointed.
Gotta merit that instance!
I had a lot of trouble (docker install) but it was mostly because I thought I needed to install a database (no, it's in the docker files), nginx being difficult to configure(had to learn how it works) and the config stuff, like should I keep those brackets, the http part etc etc. Got a lot of help too.
But then it started and is running since.
Good luck!
