404 /api/v3/user/login when logging in

Hello, I've been trying to host my own lemmy instance for a little while now but have yet to be successful.

I recently had my lemmy instance running but i could not find other communities, so i decided to remove everything and try again. Now however when i try to create an account or log in i get the error 404 for the file /api/v3/user/loginand nothing happens.

I've tried removing everything again and starting again but it is still not working

in the lemmy docker container i get the following error

edit: i just managed to log in, however the federation does not seem to be working. None show up in the communities tab and if i look for any communities i get no results and this in the log

  • Yeah, the config file on the documentation sucks. I had to poke through several discussions on /c/selfhosting to find a config that wasn't the extremely minimal one linked in the documentation. Your config.hjson is fine from what I can tell, although I'm not sure why you censored the hostname there as it's supposed to be lemmy.emphisia.nl and not anything confidential.

    Honestly, I don't have enough understanding of NGINX to debug its config, so I'll just share my docker-compose.yml for leddit.danmark.party which worked correctly and federated out of the box, with a few adjustments to match your deployment. Note that you'll have to tear down your existing deployment if you want to use this docker-compose.yml because they use the same ports.

    I should probably self-host my own pastebin
