Here’s the link to the original instance : https://blog.kaki87.net/c/kaki_blog?dataType=Post&sort=New
Here’s an example comment from another instance : https://0d.gs/comment/5903730
Here’s the same comment on yet another instance : https://jlai.lu/post/21115531/15881483
But from the original instance, the comment doesn’t show up.
What to do ?
Thanks
Sorry, forget my previous comment. It seems to be a bad design choice in the frontend. The backend is working fine, probably.
Your instance is not federating with other instances, and this definitely is because someone manually turned off federation or changed the federation mode (otherwise your community and its posts wouldn’t have appeared on other instances).
The comment on the jlai.lu instance seems to be there because someone manually fetched it. That would explain why “your instance did not receive the activity but federated it over to other instances”.
Go to the admin page in the lemmy UI and turn on federation. If you selected “Allowlist” or “Blacklist”, select “Open” as the federation mode.
https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/federation_getting_started.html
Then comment or like posts from other instances, ideally a popular community so your instance starts federating with lots of instances faster.
Though I think that’s what happening, this wouldn’t explain why 0d.gs shows that your instance successfully keeps receiving activities from it. I wonder if there is no check being done for that.
All I see is a “Federation enabled” checkbox that is checked, an “allowed instances” list that is empty, a “blocked instances” list that is empty as well, and a “federation debug mode” checkbox that is unchecked.
I don’t see “allowlist”, “blocklist” or “federation mode”.
Thanks
To double check, you are accessing the Lemmy admin page through the official Lemmy UI, correct?
Also do you mind sharing (if there are any) error logs of the Lemmy backend.
Btw you might want to close the registrations. They are open right now.
Correct.
I’ve got no “error” lines, but outside of “trace”, “debug” and “info”, I have the following “warn” line :
WARN Error encountered while processing the incoming HTTP request: pan_builder: InboxTimeout: InboxTimeout 0: lemmy_server::root_span_builder::HTTP request with http.method=POST http.scheme="https" http.host=blog.kaki87.net http.target=/inbox otel.kind="server" d432-40fa-a865-6690f61e11dc http.status_code=400 otel.status_code="OK" at src/root_span_builder.rs:16Indeed, which is weird, because I’m sure I closed them when I first created the instance. Are settings lost during upgrades ?
