✨ It's live! My start to finish guide for getting your own #mastodon instance up and running with Docker on Ubuntu 16.04: https://github.com/ummjackson/mastodon-guide/blob/master/up-and-running.md

I've tested this on both Vultr and DigitalOcean and the instructions should be pretty much copy/paste for everyone. Hope this helps some people! 😀

Good luck and feedback appreciated!! (cc @Gargron / @TonyNof / @david / @vielmetti / @lmorchard )

@ummjackson @lmorchard @vielmetti @david @TonyNof @Gargron I get an error when I try to restart nginx and have no idea what to do.

@jasongreen what's the error?

@ummjackson job failed because control process exited with error code

@jasongreen Hmm, can you try running "sudo service nginx stop" and then try restarting?

@jasongreen To try and nail down the issue, try these commands:

"sudo nginx -t"
"sudo tail /var/log/nginx/error.log"

See if that gives you any insight into what's wrong... my thinking is that your site config might contain an error.

@ummjackson unexpected EOF expected }
Found and fixed. Thanks for your help. nginx -t gave useful information
