Need clarification on pictrs update to 0.5 for 19.4 - Docker Compose
(lemux.minnix.dev)
Support / questions about Lemmy.
This is the part of the new compose file that I don't understand:
PICTRS__OLD_REPO__PATH=/mnt/sled-repo PICTRS__REPO__TYPE=postgres PICTRS__REPO__URL=postgres://user:password@host:5432/db
When I try to add it, pictrs complains about not being able to connect to postgres, even though the credentials are correct and I've already run the postgres migration script. Did you not do this part when you upgraded?
No I just replaced the image tag. Pictrs will do the upgrade itself.
This is for making the pictrs backend on postgres and to migrate it to postgres. Though not documented with Lemmy it works and I am running it that way on my instance. It allows you to load balance and have high availability of pictrs service.
