Thanks for the idea. Tried it and no luck unfortunately

@[email protected] Thanks for the reply. I have done that and can successfully see the community. However, when I try to subscribe it is stuck at pending. Cancelling and trying again doesn't seem to fix it.

I only have this issue with communities on lemmy.ml from my instance lemmy.notdead.net

Just tried that, same issue unfortunately. Do I add that only to the lemmy service?

Tried that, made no difference. Thank you though

I'm just using the default one from the instructions, pasted it below. It may also be worth noting that I am using Nginx Proxy Manager on top of all this for ssl. I have set all custom locations (api, feeds, nodeinfo, pictrs) but I have left the advanced section blank.

worker_processes 1; events { worker_connections 1024; } http { upstream lemmy { # this needs to map to the lemmy (server) docker service hostname server "lemmy:8536"; } upstream lemmy-ui { # this needs to map to the lemmy-ui docker service hostname server "lemmy-ui:1234"; }

server {
    # this is the port inside docker, not the public one yet
    listen 80;
    # change if needed, this is facing the public web
    server_name localhost;
    server_tokens off;

    gzip on;
    gzip_types text/css application/javascript image/svg+xml;
    gzip_vary on;

    # Upload limit, relevant for pictrs
    client_max_body_size 20M;

    add_header X-Frame-Options SAMEORIGIN;
    add_header X-Content-Type-Options nosniff;
    add_header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block";

    # frontend general requests
    location / {
        # distinguish between ui requests and backend
        # don't change lemmy-ui or lemmy here, they refer to the upstream definitions on top
        set $proxpass "http://lemmy-ui";

        if ($http_accept = "application/activity+json") {
          set $proxpass "http://lemmy";
        }
        if ($http_accept = "application/ld+json; profile=\"https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams\"") {
          set $proxpass "http://lemmy";
        }
        if ($request_method = POST) {
          set $proxpass "http://lemmy";
        }
        proxy_pass $proxpass;

        rewrite ^(.+)/+$ $1 permanent;
        # Send actual client IP upstream
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    }

    # backend
    location ~ ^/(api|pictrs|feeds|nodeinfo|.well-known) {
        proxy_pass "http://lemmy";
        # proxy common stuff
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";

        # Send actual client IP upstream
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    }
}

}

Hey, I do.

Everything is working amazing, except I can't subscribe to anything on lemmy.ml.

What did you do to fix yours?

Thanks for that info! Unfortunately, trying to get my instance up using that config is proving to be quite difficult with my setup. I found another user with a similar setup to me that posted a guide and even that gives me the same problem with ONLY communities on lemmy.ml

https://lemmy.dcrich.net/post/1150

I am using the nginx posted on there, as well as nginx proxy manager on top of it which manages my HTTPS / SSL.

According to everyone that followed that guide, there are zero issues for them, but for me, nothing works on lemmy.ml which is unfortunate as there are a lot of communities I want to subscribe to on here.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, no luck doing that. I also noticed, I can't see my meta community from the lemmy.ml search, but I can find it from other instances. ( https://lemmy.notdead.net/c/meta )

I seem to only have issues federating with lemmy.ml

Mine does, I see UI: v0.17.3

Did you ever get this up and running? I am also using NPM on top of the nginx in the stack, and I can't seem to federate with lemmy.ml

Would love to know if you found a fix that could work for me

Awesome, thank you.

I am in the same boat, although I am quite comfortable with most tech things, NGINX is a new world for me.

I'm wondering if I should migrate my NPM to caddy or something.
