What do I set the federation host string to?

[kode54]

I am self hosting and running it behind a Cloudflare tunnel. Do I need to set the federation path to domain.tld/app, or just domain.tld?

I attempted to load GET request to https://domain.tld/app and it returned 404, so I don't know if I set this up correctly. Search doesn't seem to work for my own domain, either.

if needed, the value should be set as domain.tld/app

setting the 'federation host' is important when connecting to contacts on other servers. if you only plan to use the system for communication between accounts on the same server that value does not need to be set, although it can be correctly set without issue.

A GET on the base URL of the system should return a 200 as long as Cloudflare is forwarding the request correctly.

[kode54]

It's returning 200 for domain.tld/, but 404 for domain.tld/app.

is the '/app' part of the base URL of you system, or are you adding it because you saw it in the placeholder?

generally I don't use '/app', but it's allowed if you want to host the system under an app path.

my demo server for example has the federation host string set as 'databag.coredb.org'

[kode54]

I only added it because I saw it in the example. My base URL is c.losno.co

From what I can see, it seems that you are setup correctly. Your federation host string should be 'c.losno.co'

I'll try and clarify how to set the federation host string correctly. Let me know if you have thoughts.

Thanks for using this project!
