Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Lemmy selfhost problem (lemmy.world)

Hey guys, im writing here because i'm really out of options and ideas. I have been trying to set up my lemmy instance in docker put i keep failing at the first step. I have filled every {{}} detail and still getting this error:

The Compose file './docker-compose.yml' is invalid because: Invalid top-level property "x-logging". Valid top-level sections for this Compose file are: version, services, networks, volumes, secrets, configs, and extensions starting with "x-".

You might be seeing this error because you're using the wrong Compose file version. Either specify a supported version (e.g "2.2" or "3.3") and place your service definitions under the services key, or omit the version key and place your service definitions at the root of the file to use version 1.

I have tried to edit the version number, even deleting it but then im getting this:

The Compose file './docker-compose.yml' is invalid because: Unsupported config option for x-logging: 'options' Unsupported config option for services: 'proxy'

Do you have any idea?

Edit: Thank you all for the ideas. Actually the docker compose up -d solved it!

This means your docker-compose is very outdated or even broken.

To give you some context, originally Docker Compose was a separate project. It's a separate program called docker-compose. It evolved for quite a while, and was eventually rewritten and included as a part of Docker itself, becaming a sub-command (docker compose).

Just uninstall the old Compose (so it won't cause you any issues) and keep only Docker.
