I have a lemmy-ui instance working correctly, fresh ansible install. I haven’t configured it yet, but it’s up and running and test posts work fine.

I’m mostly interested in lemmyBB, so I installed that according to “Alongside existing Lemmy instance (native)” install instructions.

Everything seems to work fine during install, systemctl status lemmy_bb.service shows:

    This will be impossible to debug without the nginx (or whatever reverse proxy you are using) configuration. Because it looks like lemmybb is running but it is not being served properly.

              Here’s the config I use for the lemmy backend: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/docker/prod/nginx.conf here’s my lemmy.hjson https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/docker/prod/lemmy.hjson

              like I said, aside from domain name and required variables, everything is default, running a fresh vps. Ansible install for Lemmy, “install along other instance” instructions for lemmyBB.

              No messing with ports. Fresh debian 10, debian 11, ubuntu 22, all with the same result:

              Lemmy-UI works fine, lemmyBB returns a 502.

                Are you using docker at all? If yes, can you share the output of docker ps?

                Also, can you share your /etc/systemd/system/lemmy_bb.service file?
