Running the manual install instructions creates a room that seems to start up but cannot pass a ./room check succesfully.

Here is a transcript of the state the system gets in to, on an ovh.com vanilla Debian 10 VM.

On the other hand if I execute these instructions on my plain old laptop, my ssb room container runs without error. possibly this is OVH-specific? Any debugging tips?

NB this is the same error as reported at #21 for Digital Ocean. As such we can assume it occurs for various setups

Also as noted at #21 the room server still starts and appears to function. It is just the ./room check command that never returns successfully. Does this cause a problem for the healer and restarter systems?

After removing the health check the web-server is exposed by my proxy (traefik).

Sorry, does that mean the ssb-room is Basically Working Properly after you removed the health check?
And if so... what exactly did you do to "remove the health check"?

Thanks!

AFAICT the ssb-room I have is running on a cheap VM successfully without any changes. It just throws ugly errors; I'm currently caught up on a different distribut edsocial network system so don't have time to sort out exactly what I did, despite my bold claims I would document it, sorry.

@danmackinlay Thanks for the quick reply!

Did you wind up using a DO droplet? How did you get the room up and running?

I'm currently caught up on a different distributed social network system

Curious: which one?

yes

And if so... what exactly did you do to "remove the health check"?

I used docker cp to replace the file /home/node/.npm-global/lib/node_modules/ssb-room/bin.js with a version that comments outs the following:

/*rpc.whoami((err2, x) => {
      if (err2) {
        console.error(err2);
        process.exit(1);
      } else {
        console.log(x.id);
        process.exit(0);
      }
    });*/

Is there a way to understand what causes it? I have my own computer and I'm trying to run my own room, but I have this error. Also, it seems that error marks the container unhealthy.

Edit: That makes the healer script useless. It will just restart it every time. The room works great so far.
