Selfhosting Lemmy

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/484729

This is a docker setup, so to update all I did was change the lemmy-ui and lemmy versions in docker-compose.yml. Note: downgrading to 0.17.4 results in an API error instead, and still a broken site, so downgrading does not appear to be an option.

Upgraded my instance to 0.18.0, and now there are errors in both lemmy-ui and lemmy backend.

I see federation messages processing as usual, however trying to load the UI generates a weird error in lemmy-ui, and returns "Server Error" instead of the main page.

The error in the lemmy-ui logs looks like it is trying to load the site icon via pictrs from the public facing domain, but instead trying to connect to 127.0.1.1:443 (for pictrs) and getting refused.

}

lemmy-ui and pictrs are on the same default lemmyinternal network.

I've also filed a bug, because I've been trying to troubleshoot this, but haven't found a solution yet.

Any help is appreciated.

If you ran Lemmy or kbin locally as a single user instance with no hosted communities and it was not live all of the time would you miss a lot pushed data? Would this data be pulled later? Would this cause de-federation?
