Hello all,
Rather stumped with this one. Trying to install Lemmy, and getting the below error after running systemctl status lemmy … The full error is below :
root@lemmy:/etc/systemd# systemctl status lemmy.service

If anyone could assist, I’d be more than appreciative. So far these logs don’t seem to point to where to look for the issue even.
What about:
journalctl -f -u lemmy.service?

So, stop Lemmy first with
systemctl stop lemmy.serviceand then run it directly with/usr/bin/lemmy_server?If you don’t get sufficient logs, you can also do:
RUST_LOG=info lemmy_serverorRUST_LOG=verbose lemmy_serverit can’t even find /usr/bin/lemmy_server to run it… maybe thats where the problem is? lol
Well, it looks to me that you’re doing the install from scratch. So if /usr/bin/lemmy_server is missing, you dungoofed.
So far these logs don’t seem to point to where to look for the issue even.
i agree, I don’t see anything in that log that indicates what is going on.
I don’t see any long about database migrations, so maybe it is failing before that logs. How did you install the server, Docker? Is PostgreSQL running and working?
Server was installed from scratch, but I might try a Docker run just to see if there’s any difference. PostgreSQL is up and running :
doc@lemmy:/usr/bin$ systemctl status postgresql ● postgresql.service - PostgreSQL RDBMS Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/postgresql.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (exited) since Sat 2023-06-24 01:41:07 UTC; 23h ago Main PID: 25761 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Tasks: 0 (limit: 4594) Memory: 0B CGroup: /system.slice/postgresql.service Jun 24 01:41:07 lemmy systemd[1]: Starting PostgreSQL RDBMS... Jun 24 01:41:07 lemmy systemd[1]: Finished PostgreSQL RDBMS. doc@lemmy:/usr/bin$Maybe try the lemmy_server binary interactive? I know there are some environment variables to set
