I know everyone is still fiddling around with setup, but I have tried and tried to get my own compose working but have had no luck. If anyone can share their working compose, it would be really helpful. I have an existing Nginx Proxy Manager container serving as my reverse proxy, so I don’t want to install the nginx container in the sample compose either. Thanks!
<<so I don’t want to install the nginx container in the sample compose either>> Thought the same initially but it turned out both nginx instances are required. I have a working setup with an installed nginx instance + certbot and an almost unmodified docker-compose.yml The modifications I made were changing container names (so they fit my standard) and the http port
The lemmy documentation https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/install_docker.html recommends the following location block for the installed nginx:
location / { proxy_pass http://localhost:LEMMY_PORT; proxy_set_header Host $host; include proxy_params; }This did not work for me! I had to comment the proxy_set_header line to make things work. With it I run into an error 400.
