I have been trying to set this up for the past 2 days and I am losing my mind.
The issue I seem to be having is that synapse cannot find the necessary postgres information in the the database. I have been trying to setup a docker container for it but to no avail. The container just continues to restart. When I check docker logs it seems like it cannot find the database info it needs but its there. I deleted the sqlite3 info so it most certainly isn’t still using that.
Is there possibly a casaos friendly version of matrix? Is there an easy to follow tutorial for docker matrix and duckdns? Any help would be appreciated.
I prefer Conduit instead of Synapse - it is lighter on resources.
How would I go about using conduit instead of synapse for matrix?
Here is the Conduit Docker deployment guide.
https://famedly.gitlab.io/conduit/deploying/docker.html
I started with the Docker Compose file they provide, and “translated” it into Podman rootless containers for my server. Even with adding the extra work, it was pretty painless.
Weird, conduit.rs links an entirely different Gitlab page - https://gitlab.com/famedly/conduit, with the docs being at https://docs.conduit.rs/deploying/docker.html
Hmm, docs.conduit.rs appears to be an alias for famedly.gitlab.io. I copied the link from the intro in the README.md file in the GiLab repository.
I’ll second conduit. You can tune up its caching, reducing the ram usage significantly. It does become a bit painful to sync the mobile clients, but at least it’s not gigabytes of ram wasted.
