@billy what up Billy? Also the #mastoadmin tag may help here

@seano just learned that hashtag exists, fml

ok so get this

- migrated mastodon to docker
- set rails_serve_static_files to true
- nginx refers all /packs uris to docker
- yet a couple of the files return 404, but others in the same folder return fine - and ALL of them returning 404 are in the folder JUST LIKE THE OTHERS??!!? AND THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THEM!!?

done testing without nginx, defo not an nginx misconfiguration and it's something to do with docker

AAAAAAAAHHHHHH

Any good guides to upgrading #elasticsearch on Debian from 7.* to 9.*? Is it as simple as changing the repo and running apt-get or is it more advanced? #mastoAdmin

Wondering if I should change to opensearch while I am at it. Is there a guide for that. Web search is awful and I've had no luck finding anything that even remotely would please me regarding upgrading tasks

@paul @danny I’ll just point out that I haven’t upgraded to 4.6.x myself yet but did run the 4.4 and 4.5 alphas.

https://mastoreqs.com is my go to reference for system dependencies. For internal Mastodon changes I look at the commits since I last updated to see if there’s anything to be aware of.

How do I find the latest v4.6.0 alpha on Github?

#MastoAdmin #Mastodon

OK, I’m at a loss. I’ve deleted all of my posts, but my server says I have 105. The API also says zero.

How do begin troubleshooting or even remediating the issue?

really, really impressed with posty: a mastodon archive -> html static site generator

it ingests your mastodon archive (post history) as a zip, and barfs out an entire static html site with indices and tags. all servable with any standard web server.

this is super helpful because when i shut down the dialup.cafe instance, there was no easy way to get access to my old posts and images.

it can either be run online here:
https://posty.1sland.social

or instructions here for running it locally:

a user profile page for @vga256@dialup.cafe. it shows the user's profile pic (a fox) and a background banner (a beyond hypercard screenshot, drawn by robin miller)

Made progress on issue 172 today, but the rest of the evening goes to playing Fortnite with my son. And that's fine by me, loving our win streak. First things first.

Hey #fediverse, is there an activitypub application similar to meetup? I would really like to add a trail ride planning platform to Dirt Social and i'm curious if something already exists.

I thought i remembered seeing one somewhere. but i can't find it now.

Thanks!
