now i get this error when i attempt to access it. anyone know how to set it back?

404: FetchError: request to http://lemmy:8536/api/v3/site

and the command docker compose -p lemmy-easy-deploy logs -f yeilds a bunch of nonsense but this line stood out…

Error: LemmyError { message: Some("Cannot have both private instance and federation enabled."), inner: Cannot have both private instance and federation enabled., context: "SpanTrace" }

    Thank you for your response, but can you explain like I’m five? Lol

    I don’t know what you mean by connect to my database, I’m really new to this stuff, this is all really above my head.

      In your case you can try this:

      $ docker exec -ti lemmy_postgresql_1 bash

      or put here your container name instead “lemmy_postgresql_1”, look inside docker ps output

      $ su postgres 
$ psql -d lemmy
$ UPDATE local_site SET private_instance = false;

      Then restart docker container with docker restart lemmy_lemmy_1 # or your container name instead “lemmy_lemmy_1”, look inside docker ps output

        i’m so sorry but i still don’t understand…

        root@laptop:/home/rain# docker exec -ti lemmy_postgresql_1 bash
Error response from daemon: No such container: lemmy_postgresql_1

        here is the guide i followed that got me to this point… and then i checked that box with out understanding what i was doing…

          Replace lemmy_postgresql_1 with whatever the name of your database container is. If you don’t know the name, I guess you should be able to figure it out by reading config.env?

            i don’t see the database mentioned in that file

            The hostname for your instance

            Do NOT put http:// or https://

            ONLY put your domain here. Subdomains are ok.

            LEMMY_HOSTNAME=“atosoul.zapto.org”

            If you use Cloudflare, your Cloudflare API token. Otherwise leave blank.

            If present, the DNS-01 challenge will be used to obtain valid HTTPS certificates

            –> If you use the Cloudflare Proxy, DO NOT FORGET to enable Cloudflare’s Full (Strict) SSL mode! <–

            This token must have access to edit the Zone where $LEMMY_HOSTNAME is

            Using this option will increase build time, as the DNS plugin needs to be compiled. Subsequent deploys will be faster.

            CF_API_TOKEN=“”

            Whether or not to build Lemmy from source rather than use the Docker Hub images

            This will significantly increase deploy time!

            BUILD_FROM_SOURCE=“false”

            The name of your Lemmy instance, will be displayed on the site header (only used during first-time setup)

            If you use special characters, please backslash-escape them.

            SETUP_SITE_NAME=“AtoSoul”
