So I seem to have “successfully” set up a Lemmy from Scratch server on Ubuntu 22.04 … The problem I’m having is it doesn’t seem to go to a registration page, and when you try to sign up for a new account, or do anything really, it seems to endlessly spin. Any ideas?
I just set up from scratch on FreeBSD and had that issue at first as well. Turns out the instructions on the website could use some love as the ansible nginx configs were out of date. I manually updated my nginx config to match the blocks for UI and BE in the nginx_internal.conf and that seemed to resolve my registration issues.
Also make sure you’re front end version is the same as your backend. I also made that mistake.
I had a hell of a time getting the site to even render with those instructions. I basically took a new version of the lemmy.conf file and went error by error until I got it to display. I’ve done it 3 times now, and every time it ends up broken. I’m trying to write more accurate documentation as we speak, hence why I’m trying so hard to get a clean install from scratch.
Where did you find that new lemmy.conf file? I have no idea what options are even available in that config. I saw a limited one in lemmy-ansible but I know for sure there is more than what’s in there as an option.
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/blob/main/templates/nginx.conf
had to bastardize it heavily.
Ah yea, I also bastardized it. This is nginx.conf though, I was referring to the lemmy.hjson file. I am not sure of all the options available there haha.
Did you look in the server logs?
Is the problem resolved?
Still having the issue unfortunately … the only evidence I can find is in /var/log/nginx/error.log … posted snippet below :

I’m pretty sure it’s something on my end, because when I build Lemmy with the easy deploy script its fine.
This is 0.18.0 or 0.18.1? As this is all websocket /api/v3/ws
I’ve only been doing 0.18.0
Dong from scratch, make sure your lemmy-ui github checkout was 0.18 - as those logs look like what the outdated docs say.
When trying to build lemmy ui with github checkout 0.18 I get this error :
error /var/lib/lemmy-ui/node_modules/sharp: Command failed. Exit code: 1 Command: (node install/libvips && node install/dll-copy && prebuild-install) || (node install/can-compile && node-gyp rebuild && node install/dll-copy) Arguments: Directory: /var/lib/lemmy-ui/node_modules/sharp Output: sharp: Installation error: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/home/lemmy/.npm' sharp: Are you trying to install as a root or sudo user? sharp: - For npm <= v6, try again with the "--unsafe-perm" flag sharp: - For npm >= v8, the user must own the directory "npm install" is run in sharp: Please see https://sharp.pixelplumbing.com/install for required dependencies Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/lemmy/.yarnrc'
looks like a file permission problem. would 1) delete the entire /var/lib/lemmy-ui tree, 2) make sure you are dong sudo -u lemmy bash and on the correct account, 3) start over at git checkout
tried that with the same result. It works if I git checkout 0.16.7 as stated in the docs, but every time I try to build using 0.18.0 it’ll throw that file permission error.
