Never heard of this, granted I’ve never looked for something like it either. Sounds very interesting and seems mature albeit with a few platform specific catch’s in the readme.
Anyone use this before? Thinking about checking it out for fun. I don’t really have use for it myself but I am interested in the implementation.
Awesome! No problems, I’m glad I could help. Took me a bit to figure out what was going on too.
Might be, the current docker-compose.yml has it in there properly. However, when I used the install with docker guide a day or two ago it hard linked to the 0.17 version which didn’t give external network access to the lemmy service. Sounded similar to the problem I was facing, but if you used the current docker-compose.yml I guess that is not it.
It sounds like the back end has no external network access. You can check with something like sudo docker exec -it lemmy_lemmy_1 ping archlinux.org
Check sudo docker logs lemmy_lemmy_1 right after you search. I was getting http get request failures to the other servers.
Add ‘lemmyexternalproxy’ to networks for the lemmy service in docker-compose.yml and rebuild ‘sudo docker-compose up -d --build’
Fixed it for me.
Edit: just read the part about nothing in the logs. If this is not it, I’m not sure.
Posting from the app. Awesome progress for only 10 days.
