Getting syntax error on running Nitter-only Docker #24

Open AdiPathak97 opened 2 months ago

AdiPathak97 commented 2 months ago

Followed the instructions here, but didn't add Instance RSS password at first in the .env file, due to which Nitter container kept exiting with an error. Fixed that to find it still kept exiting, here are the logs:

I couldn't check the created nitter.conf file in the container because it keeps crashing. Any help would be highly appreciated!

Edit: Tiny detail I forgot to mention which may be relevant, I am using Podman instead of Docker, but podman compose uses docker compose under the hood. I find it unlikely for that to be the issue, but mentioning it for the sake of completeness.

To debug this you'll need to do those

  1. Clone my nitter repo https://github.com/sekai-soft/nitter
  2. In the scripts/nginx.sh file, replace the last line with sleep infinity
  3. Copy over your .env file
  4. Run docker compose exec -it nitter bash
  5. You can now inspect the /etc/nginx/conf.d/nitter.conf file and validate its content (I guess your RSS password contains special characters that cause nginx to not parse correctly)
