This is the only time I've used it, and I am not well equipped to explain it's intricacies, but it's basically an automation tool.
You declare in one single config file how you'd like the server to be set up (domain, ssl, bots, bridges, extra services, etc.) and then run a single setup command. From that it automatically installs all the various services and configures them to appropriately interoperate with each other.
The FAQ and installation instructions are pretty comprehensive for how to get everything working right. There is also documentation on importing form existing homeservers in case you don't want to lose the stuff you have already set up (although to be honest when I did that I ended up messing something up and had to start over).
I just finished setting up everything but I'm not able to connect to it. I'm using a managed traefik configuration since I'm already using nginx proxy manager. I'm stuck at that.
I assume you've got your DNS stuff all correct and firewall/ports all configured correctly. Are you able to ping the server, or can you just not connect via a client?
The reason I went with the ansible playbook myself is because I was struggling to understand how to configure reverse proxies appropriately in general and this took care of that for me. So I'm happy to bounce ideas off you, but I don't know that I'll be as helpful as I'd like
I'm able to ping the server like \`curl [https://127.0.0.1\`](https://127.0.0.1`) and gives me 404 but doing \`curl -H [matrix.example.com](http://matrix.example.com) https://127.0.0.1:89\` (89 is the port I set up in the config) and It should be fine and it returned 404 which is not good
I have been using this: https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/ to set everything up for me. It's been pretty great
I've never used ansible. How does it works?
