UPDATE: HERE IS THE ANSWER

^^^^^^^


Hi,

Lemmy is awesome.

I’m having trouble launching my instance.

Here is a home page screenshot:

HERE’S THE FULL ERROR:

“Found. Redirecting to /404?err=FetchError: invalid json response body at http://lemmy:8536/api/v3/post/list?page=1&limit=20&sort=Active&type_=Local&saved_only=false 
reason: Unexpected token N in JSON at position 0”

IF YOU CLICK ‘SIGN UP’, CONSOLE SAYS:

client.js:formatted:60298 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'site')
    at n.get (client.js:formatted:60298)
    at n.get (client.js:formatted:60293)

OFTEN REQUESTED LOGS / CONFIGS: (pastebin)

Docker logs (2 errors)

  • TL-DR (the 2 errors):
  • lemmy_server:::root_span_builder:NotFound
  • lemmy_server:::root_span_builder:captcha_incorrect

Lemmy config

Nginx config (/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ggg.com.conf)


PORTS

I have the following ports open on the server (maybe too many):

  • 22, 80, 443, 8536, 5432, 1235

And the following rules in IPTABLES (maybe too many)

  • A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
  • A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
  • A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
  • A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 8536 -j ACCEPT
  • A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 5432 -j ACCEPT
  • A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 1235 -j ACCEPT

I’ve failed at several ‘fixes’.

If anyone knows what to do, I’d really appreciate the guidance.

If any more info is needed, I’ll gladly provide.

Thank you

I installed with ansible, but you are right, I modified the config a ton (tryin to make it work).

I’ll wipe the VM, reinstall with an unedited config, and go from there. Thank you

Sir Dessalines the rev,

I did a FRESH lemmy-ansible install on a new VPS.

  • I only modified the host file (did not edit config).

Homepage shows the same UI and error message:

  • “Found. Redirecting to /404?err=FetchError: invalid json response body at http:/lemmy:8536/api/v3/post/list?page=1&limit=20&sort=Active&type_=Local&saved_only=false reason: Unexpected token N in JSON at position 0”

Clicking “Login” or “Sign Up” gives the same error:

  • client.js: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘site’)

And the same docker error:

  • lemmy_server:::root_span_builder:NotFound

I haven’t modified anything - it is still a fresh ansible-install.


Here are the configs/logs for this NEW lemmy instance (pretty-fied).

I haven’t changed anything (database / ports / config) beyond what ansible did.


If you have a chance to consider this, I am very grateful.

I’ve read all the docs and I don’t know what else to try.


NOTE: The GOOD news is - I’m making a “Lemmy Install for Noobs” guide as I go (detailing every small step)…

When I finally get Lemmy running, I’ll share the guide for community review/benefit.

I can confirm this is a bug that creeped in with 0.15.1. Check here for instructions on a short term fix:

Thank you, the fix worked.

I should’ve posted that update sooner. I wrote it last week, but didn’t want to send til I tried everything.

It was a blessing in disguise though - got me to rummage the Lemmy files and ansible code MANY times!

Thank you sincerely for taking the time.
