Setting up servers

</h2>

<div id="outline-text-headline-1" class="outline-text-2">
|
|
<p>So recently, I have been setting up servers for my committee at uni and my own home server since I am transferring from a vps.
|
|
Doing this, I have tried out using <a href="https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/">Nomad</a> and <a href="https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/">Consul</a> instead of ssh'ing to the server and running <code>docker-compose up</code> or even launching the services manually.
|
|
This approach has seeing how the docker logs look easier and I know that reverse proxy will be solved by itself.</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The issues arise when I try to understand why thing aren't working in the tools used however.
|
|
Docker-compose is kinda self contained, but both Nomad and Consul work as an overarching tool so trying to find out errors with them is harder.</p>

The latest issues
|
|
</h2>
|
|
<div id="outline-text-headline-2" class="outline-text-2">
|
|
<p>So, two days ago, I was trying to setup Jellyfin on my own server, but it started acting up in a weird way.
|
|
Services were shutting down as expected Nomad, but on the Consul side, it would just add on more and more services.
|
|
This made the reverse proxy Traefik not work or sending traffic to the wrong container.
|
|
Logging into the server via ssh and using the <code>deregister</code> command of Consul resulted in not finding the services.
|
|
After hours of searching I found <a href="https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/issues/16351">this github issue</a> which made me able to manually deregister services.</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This was a temporary fix, I had to get to the root issue of the problem.
|
|
So today I sat down to try and figure things out.
|
|
Searching and searching for the issues, I find out that the problems are arising from the tokens used due to permissions.
|
|
But trying to find out how the permissions work, I am dumbfounded.
|
|
Reading through <a href="https://developer.hashicorp.com/consul/docs/security/acl/acl-policies">this</a> gives me nothing that helps me figure out how to actually use it.
|
|
It feels like you have to be into the entire system and know a bit of everything to even be able to use it.</p>

|
After the fact
|
|
</h2>
|
|
<div id="outline-text-headline-3" class="outline-text-2">
|
|
<p>It got fixed eventually, but the threshold to get into certain systems feels overwhelming to me.
|
|
I am way more of getting the bare system, or it might be a bit more like the Unix philosophy of doing 1 thing good.
|
|
That way, the documentation of that program can be short and to the point rather than explain an entire ecosystem.
|
|
It would be harder to set up the communication between software though, so I understand why it exists, but I easily get frustrated by it.</p>
