Hello, I want to install searxng without using Docker on my homeserver so I basically run the install script from the official documentation. Already tried to use the automatic script for setting up apache and it basically worked by exposing /searxng. But I would like to do something simpler as I like that apache would only expose localhost:80 (for example) to use a reverse proxy later to point to it. Just wondering how this configuration work and how I could do something that applicates to my use case :

# -*- coding: utf-8; mode: apache -*-

LoadModule ssl_module           /mod_ssl.so
LoadModule headers_module       /mod_headers.so
LoadModule proxy_module         /mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_uwsgi_module   /mod_proxy_uwsgi.so
# LoadModule setenvif_module      /mod_setenvif.so
#
# SetEnvIf Request_URI /searxng dontlog
# CustomLog /dev/null combined env=dontlog

<Location /searxng>

    Require all granted
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    # Allow from fd00::/8 192.168.0.0/16 fe80::/10 127.0.0.0/8 ::1
    Allow from all

    # add the trailing slash
    RedirectMatch  308 /searxng$ /searxng/

    ProxyPreserveHost On
    ProxyPass unix:/usr/local/searxng/run/socket|uwsgi://uwsgi-uds-searxng/

    # see flaskfix.py
    RequestHeader set X-Scheme %{REQUEST_SCHEME}s
    RequestHeader set X-Script-Name /searxng

    # see limiter.py
    RequestHeader set X-Real-IP %{REMOTE_ADDR}s
    RequestHeader append X-Forwarded-For %{REMOTE_ADDR}s

</Location>

# uWSGI serves the static files and in settings.yml we use::
#
#   ui:
#     static_use_hash: true
#
# Alias /searxng/static/ /usr/local/searxng/searxng-src/searx/static/

Any help here? Thank you very much

This is again a big win on the red team at least for me. They developed a "fully open" 3B parameters model family trained from scratch on AMD Instinct™ MI300X GPUs.

AMD is excited to announce Instella, a family of fully open state-of-the-art 3-billion-parameter language models (LMs) [...]. Instella models outperform existing fully open models of similar sizes and achieve competitive performance compared to state-of-the-art open-weight models such as Llama-3.2-3B, Gemma-2-2B, and Qwen-2.5-3B [...].

As shown in this image (https://rocm.blogs.amd.com/_images/scaling_perf_instruct.png) this model outperforms current other "fully open" models, coming next to open weight only models.

A step further, thank you AMD.

PS : not doing AMD propaganda but thanks them to help and contribute to the Open Source World.

Are VPN good for privacy today, should we used them to protect our privacy?

Not free, none have all advantages and wouldn't let my ISP only know my traffic so these times I'm really overwhelmed by all of this

Used Tor for a bit but it's not practically useful, slow (okay but not the main problem) and blocked by a lot of websites..

Maybe a chain of VPN could be good? I really don't know, can you help me?

Basically I don't want to have no protection but don't think VPNs are really the solution...

PS: maybe a rented machine with self hosted like VPN could be good?

I've an UPS but it's not working fine. Disassembled it a bit and tested components that I could without unsoldering, everything seems good. Then the problem is :

• Normally I should be able to connect the batteries and the UPS would just be in "sleep" mode, the screen would be fully light up but the UPS should be off

• The problem here is that firstly when I plug batteries the fan turns on, it should not and only turned on when on batteries but when the UPS is on

• The second problem is that the screen doesn't work as intended. This is a screen that has prewritten zone that just have to be lighted up (don't know the name of this kind of screens, the type like in digital clock), here only the backlight is lighted up (normally all the possible drawing are lighted up too), but quickly it begins to drop in lightness to turn black at the end (the fan continues running)

Check the batteries they are 2 x 12V at 12.6V here

Thanks for your answer

EDIT : on the photo the two blue and brown cable at right are the power plant electricity going to the UPS

Is matrix good to use, seen a lot of drama around it. For example hackliberty.org left it because of lacking of security and moderation, do you still recommended it?

I have an UPS with two 12v 7ah lead batteries. If I want to change the batteries I would typically go with lead batteries but here's my question, can I use some portable mobile power banks to use it?

Because I have a 20000mah "INUI" lithium power bank that is rated for 12v at 1.5A, is it a good practice to buy several of these (since they are about 20 bucks) disassemble them and use them as ups batteries?

EDIT : clarifications

I've got a used riello ups recently and it was not working since the beginning. The UPS was switching to batteries most of the time, but sometimes it just don't switch to batteries and makes a continuous beep (riello manual tells that it's a UPS fault anything except an overload).

I left it 2 weeks without using it. But know it won't start at all. Don't have the materials to test components for now but what are your ideas? (Even when plugged in the wall it wouldn't start)

Maybe batteries or faulty ups

Thx

Since the recent Proton events I need to change providers and I found RiseUP.

I would like to know how good is this service and if I should consider it.

Moreover as I know that it is no open to sign up how to get a RiseUP account? THX for all

Hey I need your help.

Recently I bought a Riello NPW 2000 that output a "pseudo-sinusoidal" wave when running on battery the fact is that I read on the web that modern servers could have problems with it.
Mostly right, as I found that my server (poweredge t430) is not running good with it. When unplugging the power to test the UPS sometimes it make the server just power off and reboot (as said in the bios, turn on when power goes on again) or it put the ups in safety mode (continuous beep).
Tried disabling the PFC in IDRAC settings, as far I haven't noticed power off issues but only safety mode issues with the UPS... (So in fact the server power off, but will never go on battery)

In both cases the server is running fine on battery the issues are just happening when switching.

If anyone has an idea.. Thank you

After research I found that the server never turns off when disabling PFC but will eventually make the UPS goes into fault, I fought it was the fault of the PC that was putting the UPS in protection mode, but it was not the case as I tried to power a TV and it did the same thing.... So I'm good to buy another one...

EDIT : some clarifications & partly resolving the issues

Hello! 😀
I want to share my thoughts on docker and maybe discuss about it!
Since some months I started my homelab and as any good "homelabing guy" I absolutely loved using docker. Simple to deploy and everything. Sadly these days my mind is changing... I recently switch to lxc containers to make easier backup and the xperience is pretty great, the only downside is that not every software is available natively outside of docker 🙃
But I switch to have more control too as docker can be difficult to set up some stuff that the devs don't really planned to.
So here's my thoughts and slowly I'm going to leave docker for more old-school way of hosting services. Don't get me wrong docker is awesome in some use cases, the main are that is really portable and simple to deploy no hundreds dependencies, etc. And by this I think I really found how docker could be useful, not for every single homelabing setup, and it's not my case.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I let you talk about it in the comments, thx.

Hello, have setup my proxmox server since some weeks recently I found that LXC containers could be useful as it really separate all my services in differents containers. Since then I figured out to move my docker's services from a vm into several LXC containers. I ran into some issues, the first one is that a lot of projects run smoother in docker and doesn't really have a "normal" way of being package... The second thing is related to the first one, since they are not really well implemented into the OS how can I make the updates?
So I wonder how people are deploying their stuffs on LXC proxmox's containers?
Thanks for your help!

EDIT : Tried to install docker upon debian LXC but the performances were absolutely terrible...

In extend to my previous post :https://lemmy.ml/post/22320175

I cannot install drupal 11 on a fresh Debian install, in fact I tried everything and it's no more the fault of proxmox, but the PHP installation.

Drupal 11 needs php 8.3 to work, but Debian official repos go only to php 8.2, so I used the sury.org Debian repo to install the latest PHP version. And this is the start of the problem, this install gives me the error shown in the other post, exhausted memory.

I search in the info.php, memory related stuff, and the only difference between the "official" PHP (8.2) and sury one is that in the mysqldn section it shows statistics to yes. But I don't know how to disable it...

Any ideas? Thanks 😉
