## can i prune old media/events?

|
|
## why isn't conduit working?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
a few common problems:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. do you have a publicly reachable domain name? and a public + static ip address?
|
||
|
|
2. does that domain name have a valid tls certificate? (look at [certbot](https://certbot.eff.org/) or [caddy](https://caddyserver.com/) (reverse proxy))
|
||
|
|
3. is conduit running, and can you contact it from localhost?
|
||
|
|
4. what about from outside localhost?
|
||
|
|
5. is the response for `/` "hello from conduit!"?
|
||
|
|
6. have you previously had a different matrix homeserver (synapse, dendrite) running on the same domain? if so, wait a day or two for the other servers to forget the old key
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## how do i make the first user account on conduit?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. enable registration
|
||
|
|
2. register an account then quickly disable registration
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(yeah, maybe not the best method at the moment)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## how do i configure conduit to ______?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
in config.toml:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- disable federation: `enable_federation = false`
|
||
|
|
- disable appending a lightning bolt to my display name: `enable_lightning_bolt = false`
|
||
|
|
- use that coturn thing i set up: [check out this document](https://gitlab.com/famedly/conduit/-/blob/next/TURN.md?ref_type=heads)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## what is conduit using as its database, and how do i back up rocksdb?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[rocksdb](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/wiki). conduit technically
|
||
|
|
supports sqlite, but it's not recommended (conduit currently abuses
|
||
|
|
sqlite as a key/value rather than a relational database).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
to back up the database, stop conduit, start conduit (to compact the db),
|
||
|
|
stop conduit again, backup the files in the data directory, then start
|
||
|
|
conduit. yes, unfortunately it is this janky. if you use zfs or btrfs,
|
||
|
|
snapshots may work, though i haven't tested it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## how do i migrate from {synapse, dendrite}?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
you can't
