Looks like it works.

Edit still see some performance issues. Needs more troubleshooting

Update: Registrations re-opened We encountered a bug where people could not log in, see https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3422#issuecomment-1616112264 . As a workaround we opened registrations.

Thanks

First of all, I would like to thank the Lemmy.world team and the 2 admins of other servers @[email protected] and @[email protected] for their help! We did some thorough troubleshooting to get this working!

The upgrade

The upgrade itself isn’t too hard. Create a backup, and then change the image names in the docker-compose.yml and restart.

But, like the first 2 tries, after a few minutes the site started getting slow until it stopped responding. Then the troubleshooting started.

The solutions

What I had noticed previously, is that the lemmy container could reach around 1500% CPU usage, above that the site got slow. Which is weird, because the server has 64 threads, so 6400% should be the max. So we tried what @[email protected] had suggested before: we created extra lemmy containers to spread the load. (And extra lemmy-ui containers). And used nginx to load balance between them.

Et voilà. That seems to work.

Also, as suggested by him, we start the lemmy containers with the scheduler disabled, and have 1 extra lemmy running with the scheduler enabled, unused for other stuff.

There will be room for improvement, and probably new bugs, but we’re very happy lemmy.world is now at 0.18.1-rc. This fixes a lot of bugs.

          I saw that Boost will require personal and financial info, location etc. It turned me off, tbh. At least the other Lemmy apps don’t do that.

            That’s probably just a mistake in the listing. We will see what it will require once it’s released.

      It was the same for me, no way to connect with Jerboa and then it suddenly worked a few minutes ago.

      I’m unable to login with my .world account for any app. Luckily I still had connect using it, so as of right now that’s the only way I can use my lemmy.world account.

      Same. Given that Connect and Wefwef are able to log in, I’m chalking this is as a Jerboa problem.

      (I do hope they fix it, though, because right now Jerboa is the only app that lets me add images to comments without doing some manual Imgur raindance. That or Connect adds comment image functionality and I can dump Jerboa.)

      Mine is working, but I often get a “network error”. Not sure if it’s jerboa’s or Lemmy’s fault

      I had the same the same issue. It resolved when I logged out of the site. I think its because there is an active login or some caching going on. Either way I’d suggest logging out of the site and if that doesn’t work try clearing the app cache.

      That was the first app I tried today and I couldn’t log in what so ever. Connect to lemmy is pretty good!

      Tried it again right now and it seems to be working again (at least for me) on desktop browser and mobile apps.
