@dansup @mitexleo @pixelfed Ah ha, that makes more sense. I thought the pixelfed options were appropriate here, but I guess not.

@mitexleo @dansup @pixelfed I mean it says that "syslog" is a valid configuration option but apparently it might not be. I see there's an "errorlog" option. Would be nice if these actually meant something to someone other than to the person who programmed it.

Keep in mind "Invalid log level", first line in your log, is setting the logging to "emergency" level logging which does not default to "debug".

@mitexleo @dansup @pixelfed You may need syslog (which defaults to debug as per docs) which could be the firehose. Then just try to change the avatar and turn that off because it will fill up quickly. Search for the file name you uploaded in the log (or if that gets omitted, just find the issue manually) and see where the error is.

Hint: it’s usually always permissions.

@feditips Is there a ‘FediTips’ for server administrators? I’m sure there are dozens of things even experienced admins don’t know!

@feditips You can also create user-level relays with tag-TAGNAME@relay.fedi.buzz and fedi will cater content for that tag to you. Pretty neat!

@Mastodon I'm hoping to see more work on comment trees from federated instances and loading profiles/posts from federated instances coming in more gracefully.

Quote posts are another great way to carry away discussion from the Fediverse, so to not work on the bigger problem just exacerbates it.
