I’m having a similar experience right now. I wonder if there is a more complete setup walkthrough out there than what’s in the codeberg wiki? I had the same problem standing up an instance of Mastodon, in that available walkthrough seemed to assume knowledge I didn’t have, and additionally just didn’t work right if you were, say, setting it up in an LXC instance instead of using Docker. I got it sorted eventually, but the process was pretty annoying
Yeah the codeberg iirc just lists a set of commands with no idea what you’re doing, so it’s very hard to know if you’ve done something wrong. Usually I would do that, and then edit and look up things as I go, but that was the biggest deadend I’ve ever had. Though, the recommended server provider’s interface, slowness, and bugs wasn’t impressing me, I’d really love if they could make a droplet. (and selfishly a droplet with something that has more options for US servers)
Good news, the kbin wiki has massively improved the setup walkthrough. I’d love it if there was more explanation of the settings in the kbin config file, but with the rest of the info provided I think I can probably muddle through.
