• This will be a rapid and dirty Tutorial to gain the maximum afford.
• Moreover i would suggest to install on the host apt-cacher-ng and add the the VM:

  •   
      * I assume you use a fresh, not used System.
      * If we need to compile, we use ccache here to speed up due it might a 50/50 chance of a failure ;-)
      * I also assume that this is a VM/Container that is exclusivly used for this. So that in case of a Totale failure, you can restore from a Snapshot or Backup you have to be done, before you started
      * We Assume, you use Debian 12 - if you use i.e. debian 11 use this before:
        * <code>
          OLDDISTRI=bullseye
          sed -i 's/\$OLDDISTRI/bookworm/gi' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*
          sed -i 's/\%OLDDISTRI/bookworm/gi' /etc/apt/*.list

• Short Info: You don't need edit the file, it will be overwritten by the next command.
• Follow up the configuration Guide. You don't need to compile your own Stuff. REALLY NOT. Save the Time
• Thats why we removed the build lines above.
• Trust me its a pain in the Backside and waste your time… ;-D

  •  docker-compose run --rm web bundle exec rake mastodon:setup 

• OPTIONAL: Pre-Compile all Assets.

  •  docker-compose run --rm web rake assets:precompile 

• We need to create and add some information for NGINX to use it
• Hint: If you need to use a other Reverse-Proxy in front of it, its untested and my not work

  • INSTALLPATH=/opt/mastodon
    sudo mkdir /var/www/letsencrypt
    sudo cp $INSTALLPATH/dist/nginx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/mastodon
    sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/mastodon /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/mastodon 

• We Link the service-files to auto-update them

  •  
    INSTALLPATH=/opt/mastodon
    INSTALLUSER=mastodon
    sudo ln -s $INSTALLPATH/dist/mastodon-sidekiq.service /etc/systemd/system/mastodon-sidekiq.service 
    sudo ln -s $INSTALLPATH/dist/mastodon-streaming.service /etc/systemd/system/mastodon-streaming.service 
    sudo ln -s $INSTALLPATH/dist/mastodon-web.service /etc/systemd/system/mastodon-web.service
    sudo systemctl daemon-reload && sudo systemctl enable --now mastodon.service 

• We Check if it was successfull:

  •  
    INSTALLPATH=/opt/mastodon
    watch docker compose -f $INSTALLPATH/docker-compose.yml ps
