Hello! I am working through some issues with federation between my own server, https://globe.pub, and all other Lemmy servers.

When I subscribe to a community on a foreign server (e.g. https://lemmy.world/c/world), I get an error saying Activity was rejected by https://lemmy.world/inbox, aborting: Incoming activity has invalid signature.

I'm having trouble figuring out what is misconfigured on my server. Does anyone have advice on how I can resolve this?

Below are my debug logs for a failed subscription request:

Hello! I recently got https://globe.pub up and running and I'd like to get it federated with other instances.

My https://globe.pub/instances page shows that globe.pub can talk to other instances, but it doesn't seem to be pulling in their full metadata properly – the Software or Version columns are entirely empty.

I am receiving some posts from other communities (see attached photo), but only three of them are sending posts my way at all. For any other communities, I am unable to view posts, even when I navigate to them manually, and I do not see any of their posts in my All feed.

I have no communities in my whitelist or blacklist, so my server should be configured to openly federate.

Does anyone know what might be going wrong here? What debugging tips should I try next to diagnose this issue?

Hello, I'm setting up Lemmy + Lemmy-UI + pict-rs on my k8s cluster. I've gotten all the components deployed, and I'm able to access the Lemmy and Lemmy-UI instances via local tunneling. However, I'm having trouble using Lemmy-UI to sign in or administer my instance.

I can successfully POST to /api/v3/user/login against the Lemmy API directly, but this same request fails when made in my browser through Lemmy-UI. Instead of rendering JSON, I receive an HTML "not found" page.

I also see this category of failure on other pages. For example, visiting http://localhost:lemmy-ui-port/communities in my browser makes a request to GET http://localhost:lemmy-ui-port/api/v3/community/list?type_=Local&sort=TopMonth&limit=50&page=1, which returns the Lemmy-UI 404 page rendered as HTML (The page you are looking for does not exist).

It seems like Lemmy-UI is failing to handle requests to /api endpoints properly and is not forwarding them along to the backend.

I've verified that Lemmy-UI can access Lemmy by shelling into the Lemmy-UI container and running these commands successfully:

wget $LEMMY_UI_LEMMY_INTERNAL_HOST
wget $LEMMY_UI_LEMMY_INTERNAL_HOST/api/v3/community/list

I've included both the successful and failing login requests below. Do you have any idea why I might be seeing this?

Making a login request against Lemmy:

POST /api/v3/user/login HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8

{"username_or_email":"admin","password":"PASSWORD_GOES_HERE"}

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
content-type: application/json

{"jwt":"..."}

Making a login request through Lemmy-UI, just like the one I see in my browser's Network pane when I use the /login form:

POST /api/v3/user/login HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8

{"username_or_email":"admin","password":"PASSWORD_GOES_HERE"}

HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
