(Thanks for providing a level of support even for us self-hosted users!)
I downloaded and setup the binary backend, NGINX config and manually installed the frontend. I’ve got a subdomain configured in Cloudflare, certbot gave me a certificate and the landing page loads successfully.
Trying to register or login gives a 405 error in the console and visiting “/api/v1/info” loads a blank page with the Vikunja logo. There are no logs in my Vikunja log destination and no relevant entries in the NGINX error log. I’m not sure where to start trying to debug this.
NGINX config:
server {
server_name sub.domain.com;
location / {
root /var/www/vikunja;
try_files $uri $uri/ /;
index index.html index.htm;
}
listen 443 ssl; # managed by Certbot
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/sub.domain.com/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/sub.domain.com/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf; # managed by Certbot
ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem; # managed by Certbot
}
server {
if ($host = sub.domain.com) {
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
} # managed by Certbot
listen 80;
server_name sub.domain.com;
return 404; # managed by Certbot
}
Vikunja config (subset):
