I wanted to run my own Lemmy instance but I don’t have the physical space / server to run anything massive so I was trying to use a pi 4. Using the Ansible instructions I get most of the way through up to it trying to start the docker compose instance it mentions there’s no Arm in the manifest file. I know it’s not the strongest device but does Lemmy not support the pi outright?
That other script looks interesting! I do have a few other questions. With the other script How does it handle setting a domain name, or the certbot / lets encrypt stuff I’m using cloudflare / a cloudflare tunnel so that’s sort of a pain.
I have an ansible instance of 0.17.3 up but I’m getting a black page like it hit the pi and got a response but was missing data if that makes sense. So my other question is, with ansible how do I find logs? Could it be related to nginx and certbot not communicating somehow even though the page loaded? I sorta had to modify the certbot command to use the cloudflare plugin instead of nginx if that’s an issue
It only builds the ARM Docker image and publishes it to a repository which you can use in your
docker-compose.yml. It doesn’t do what the Ansible playbook does where it sets up everything for you. If you want a script that sets up everything for you, check out ubergeek77’s Lemmy-Easy-Deploy.I’m not sure what ansible names the containers but for me, I can view the logs with
sudo docker logs -f lemmy_lemmy_1.I haven’t used Cloudflare Tunnels in a long time so I’m not entirely sure. I know you can locally access Lemmy via port 80 (
http://localhost:80) to check if Lemmy is working and if the black page is an nginx/cloudflared issue.
