Hi!
Does anyone host SearXNG on a Proxmox container? I can get it to install and run fine. However all search engines return HTTP connection errors. I’m guessing it’s an Apache misconfig perhaps. Could be something else.
This is using the manual install method. Followed it from their instructions. I’m a docker newb so chose the manual method with Apache and UWSGI instead.
The LXC config itself seems fine. Gave it 2GB RAM and swap. It can reach/ping google/bing etc. Having done a general search, I’ve not found something useful. :(
Well it seems getting it to work via docker wasn’t that difficult. I have it working now. Thank you to everyone for your suggestions!
I always thought Docker was some incomprehensible techno-wizardry. Especially when it comes to its networking. Which is odd as I have no issue maintaining a bunch of VMs and LXCs in my homelab. Title changed to solved. Thanks again!
But what was the solution?
I was trying to install it standalone using their install script instructions. The ‘solution’ was to switch to using their docker instructions and run their docker instead.
Pop into the console and try pinging or dig google/etc. Might just be something simple like lack of dns server.
Thanks for taking the time with your suggestion. Unfortunately, DNS does not seem to be an issue. Pinging works fine. The below is from the container.
What about wget? Then next step is the application and I’m mostly out of ideas.
Nothing stands out.
It most likely is something with the application or apache. However I wouldn’t know where to look. A general google search has not led me anywhere useful. :(
