I am trying to get coturn working on my vps provider (I am using digital ocean) for matrix rtc.
I cannot seem to get matrix dendrite to connect to it. I think I have landed on the issue being dns records in cloudflare but I am unsure. Recently I switched to cloudflare and have been using tunnels (which I use for matrix)
Matrix dendrite works fine besides rtc when I uncomment the lines for the turn server but then doesn’t function at all when they are there.
I am using ubuntu with docker for matrix dendrite and I am using a debian vps with digital ocean for the coturn server.
Any help is appreciated!
EDIT: Lemmy you beautiful community you!!! Solved yet another issue of mine!
Progress has been made!
So I got it working with the domain name. The turn testing tools now respond with relay and pin point the vps server! Nice!
However when I put the info into the matrix dendrite.yaml it still crashes. The logs say
“Invalid config file: yaml: line 210: did not find expected key”
“Invalid config file: yaml: line 206: did not find expected " - " indicator”
Line 210 and 206 refer to the turn section which is formatted:
turn: turn_user_lifetime: “5m” turn_uris: - turn:turn.exampledomain.com?transport=udp - turn:turn.exampledomain.com?transport=tcp
EDIT: line 206 seems to be
And line 210 is uncommented description so I don’t know what that is about
Check your indentation. I’m not sure if Lemmy is messing with that, but there seems to be an additional erraneous space before turn_username and password in your config. And the dash should (I guess) be indented two spaces further than the previous line and then one space after the dash. I’m not sure if it’s that.
Holy. Fuck. You just did it. You absolute madlad. It works no issues!!!
Thank you!!
