I have tried the docker, ansible, and scratch methods. I have been troubleshooting for a month now. I have gotten nowhere. I need someone to help walk me through how to deploy a lemmy server because the guides are absolute trash.
Please help. I’m wasting money running this VPS and for literally nothing.
Edit: So, I’ve tried the ansible method, but I can’t access my server this way. It just keeps saying “UNREACHABLE”. I have generated a dozen keys, none of them work. I have NO PROBLEMS with ssh in Putty. I can use Putty all day. Putty works fine using my ssh key. Ansible does not. No amount of new keys has made any difference. I have countless keys in my stupid droplet because of this hacky garbage.
I figured out the problem, digital ocean was only applying the top RSA key, which is my Putty key. The keys I added to DO via WSL were not getting added to the authorized key list. So I added my key to the authorized keys file and it worked. Well, it let ansible access the server. I’m having other issues but will work on them later.
