Hello, I recently got into Photoprism and it’s now my one and only app that I care to spend time feeding. Except Google says I’m running out of space please buy more and I want to do badly but nah. So I found mailu to be a pretty simple docker. Photoprism was working so well initially as dynamic DNS and then I moved to Cloudflare and the world opened up for more. Cloudflare wanted money for portzilla so I found NGINX and that reverse proxy manager is awesome. However I could not figure out how to set it up to get mailu working. I found hints that Traefik could fix that with simple yml files per each service. Could someone please share some info on this? I so far have gotten Traefik to come up but then followed a YouTube video to add TLS and I’m not able to login internally or externally. I think the cloudflare connection is working because I get the same 404 error page as I do locally with 10.178.35.83:9080 as an example I get the same page as “my page.com”. The video said to expect that but did not elaborate as to how they fix it or how they bring NGINX under the traefik umbrella.

He has the config files here:

I used his version 3 per the video, but now I can’t get to the dashboard.
Anyway after I do figure out this dashboard, the next hurdle would be to figure out how to setup mailu so I can send emails to me@mail.mypage.com
I’m behind an ONT, which can forward ports and then a Unifi Controller with USG which can also forward ports. Currently I’m forwarding 80 and 443 on both right to the computer holding docker.
No matter what I try I keep getting a 404 error. I’m taking now the shotgun approach and changing the yml file copy paste from anyone and anything out there that has ever reported a successful configuration LOL. I lost all hope. Installing Traefik is a Total undeniable PITA.
The first thing is that the documentation is all over the place like a rainbow of letters just threw up into the Internet.
Hey here’s a configuration that works! – api.insecure! .nah! It’s – “ap.insecure”!.. nah you have to add $ to every letter on Wednesday and then wait for the _ and press *** three times and hit enter the word not the keyboard key but the font has to be in bold and you have to use an old IMAC.
Guys your software is shit if no one can install it. This is my third weekend trying stuff to get it to run. I got it to work one time. In fact it does probably run but I just can’t get to the damned dashboard… Is it localip.dashboard.com? Is it dashboard.ip:8080/username?
Frustrated 🥴.
