Poddery - Diaspora, Matrix and XMPP

From FSCI Wiki
Revision as of 16:58, 7 March 2016 by Fayad (talk | contribs)

We run a diaspora service at poddery.com

Environment

  • Username - diaspora
  • Path - /home/diaspora/diaspora

We use screen to keep the process running. So look for any running instances within screens using screen command.

  • Stopping - "screen -ls" will list the running screens. Switch to a screen using "screen -x <screen-name>. Press Control + C to stop the diaspora process and press Control + A D to detach screen)
  • Starting - Make sure Diaspora is not running in any screens. If yes then follow above steps before proceeding. "./script/server" will start Diaspora.
a rough indicator of the progress when running migrations, compare SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tags; to SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tags WHERE taggings_count > 0;

Note: You can run the update while diaspora is running.

Maintenance history

  • Prosody error - Failed to load private key
certmanager error SSL/TLS: Failed to load '/etc/letsencrypt/live/poddery.com/privkey.pem': Previous error (see logs), or other system error. (for poddery.com)
tls error   Unable to initialize TLS: error loading private key (system lib)
certmanager error SSL/TLS: Failed to load '/etc/letsencrypt/live/poddery.com/privkey.pem': Check that the permissions allow Prosody to read this file.

This error is usually when ssl certificate in freshly installed or renewed. Prosody user is unable to access the key file due to lack of privileges.

Note that Poddery uses Letsencrypt for ssl.

Fix:

  • Make sure that prosody user is in 'certs' group (this group may also be called ssl-certs as setup by Letencrypt)
  • /etc/letsencrypt/ is the ssl directory.
  • Prosody user should have permissions to all folders importantly archive and live folders in /etc/letsencrypt. Permissions to each folder must be 750.
  • Troubleshoot by checking if you can switch to each folder in /etc/letsencrypt as prosody user and cat the files.
