I accidentally formatted the data directory containing all of the data for my Lemmy instance, and now when I try to remake the instance it works fine till I connect the domain to the server, where it proceeds to stop working. Looking at the logs I think it might be because all of the instances are trying to send their posts to a user which doesn’t exist anymore, is there a way to fix this?
You must log in or register to comment.
Create that user? I wiped mine early on once and just made sure to recreate the users i had. Only had 2.
Also look at the lemmy admin guide for a simple command to backup your db.
deleted by creator
Unsub and resub with the new user
That doesn’t seem to work, as the subscribe never goes through in the first place
