Could not find or use Vikunja installation at "XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX". Please try a different url

Hello all,

On 3rd attempt to install following exact instructions from Debian and Apache guides. I get to the login screen only for it to be unable to find the API. I’m ready to pull my hair out.

Please help. No clue what I’m doing but I have to get this working for a project.

Using DigitalOcean Debian droplet. Followed guide exactly.

Can you reach the api url in your browser? (try https://your-domain.tld/api/v1/info)

Anything in the logs?

No logs are being produced even though the default config is untouched in that section (except i set everything to debug). no /logs directory exists inside opt/vikunja/. I’ve successfully gotten it to stop throwing me that specific error by restarting the linux service for vikunja, but now when i try to create a user acct, i get a “Internal Server Error” on the front-end. since i dont have a log available to me, im stuck.

No the API returns a 404

If you can’t reach the api then you should start by looking at the proxy (are you using one?)

Logs should be available via journalctl, they are passed to stdout by default.
