I erroneously set my personal lemmy instance to private! how do i access it now?!
now i get this error when i attempt to access it. anyone know how to set it back?
404: FetchError: request to http://lemmy:8536/api/v3/site
and the command docker compose -p lemmy-easy-deploy logs -f yeilds a bunch of nonsense but this line stood out...
Error: LemmyError { message: Some("Cannot have both private instance and federation enabled."), inner: Cannot have both private instance and federation enabled., context: "SpanTrace" }
Connect to your database and execute this sql:
UPDATE local_site SET private_instance = falseThen restart docker container
Thank you for your response, but can you explain like I'm five? Lol
I don't know what you mean by connect to my database, I'm really new to this stuff, this is all really above my head.
In your case you can try this:
or put here your container name instead "lemmy_postgresql_1", look inside
docker psoutputThen restart docker container with
docker restart lemmy_lemmy_1# or your container name instead "lemmy_lemmy_1", look insidedocker psoutputi'm so sorry but i still don't understand...
here is the guide i followed that got me to this point... and then i checked that box with out understanding what i was doing...
Replace
lemmy_postgresql_1with whatever the name of your database container is. If you don't know the name, I guess you should be able to figure it out by readingconfig.env?i don't see the database mentioned in that file
The hostname for your instance
Do NOT put http:// or https://
ONLY put your domain here. Subdomains are ok.
LEMMY_HOSTNAME="atosoul.zapto.org"
If you use Cloudflare, your Cloudflare API token. Otherwise leave blank.
If present, the DNS-01 challenge will be used to obtain valid HTTPS certificates
--> If you use the Cloudflare Proxy, DO NOT FORGET to enable Cloudflare's Full (Strict) SSL mode! <--
This token must have access to edit the Zone where $LEMMY_HOSTNAME is
Using this option will increase build time, as the DNS plugin needs to be compiled. Subsequent deploys will be faster.
CF_API_TOKEN=""
Whether or not to build Lemmy from source rather than use the Docker Hub images
This will significantly increase deploy time!
BUILD_FROM_SOURCE="false"
The name of your Lemmy instance, will be displayed on the site header (only used during first-time setup)
If you use special characters, please backslash-escape them.

If true/1, also deploy the postfix server and configure Lemmy to send emails
NOTE: Port 25 is USUALLY disabled on most server providers. For this reason, the email service is not well tested
Feedback on the email service is appreciated!

Hmm... well, it must be somewhere (I don't know much about docker). Maybe run some Docker command to list the containers, then supply the appropriate one to the grandparent commenter's
docker exec...command.I'm sorry, that went over my head... i'm as new at this as you can be...
