I’m not exactly a linux beginner but I’m far from an expert and I could use some pointers. I have a domain and a VPS through Namecheap, I chose Ubuntu 20.04 LAMP and I’ve tried several guides to get this working but something always goes wrong sooner or later.
My latest attempt is to follow along with this guide: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/install_docker.html
No errors until the docker-compose up -d command, then
ERROR: yaml.constructor.ConstructorError: while constructing a mapping in “./docker-compose.yml”, line 26, column 12 found unhashable key in “./docker-compose.yml”, line 26, column 13
which leads to image: {{ lemmy_docker_image }}
I guess I could start over with a different guide but I’m just chasing my tail at this point. Could any kind soul suggest where to go from here?
Here you go! There shouldn’t be any sensitive info in there, I haven’t modified it. The command in the instructions:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/main/templates/docker-compose.yml
obtained the file and there’s no instruction to modify it prior to running docker-compose up -d which is where it fails.
Edit: Lemmy screws up the formatting. It looks fine pasted into to text area but is messed up when I post. See the above link, that’s what I’m using.
