I think this means that something is wrong with lemmy-ui, but I’m not sure what.

ETA: I’m eleanorOpossum on beehaw.org.

EDIT: FIGURED IT OUT

Cause: I deleted everything in the pictrs folder after the CSAM raid on lemmy.world. The UI was crashing because it couldn’t load the site icon.

Solution: TL; DR: I ran this UPDATE site SET icon = NULL FROM local_site WHERE site.id = local_site.site_id; in the database.

My install uses lemmy-ansible, so my DB was in a docker container.

  • I ran docker ps to find the id of the container running the DB
  • Then I ran this to connected to it docker exec -it $CONTAINER_ID_FROM_DOCKER_PS pqsql -U lemmy -d lemmy
  • Then I searched for my instance in the
  • And then I ran this SQL expression to set my site icon to null; UPDATE site SET icon = NULL FROM local_site WHERE site.id = local_site.site_id;

Based on this comment and the rest of that thread (along with some basic SQL knowledge)

      Yep, restarted it a couple of times. (Sorry, my instance wasn’t federated with this one so I didn’t see the comment) Still, OP, just replying from my Beehaw account since I can’t see your comment on my instance.

      Still, OP, just replying from my Beehaw account since I can’t see your comment on my instance. (That’s also why it took me a day to respond…) Yes!

      Constant spam of this. Gonna check the GH issues
