Open surbhitrao opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

I am a beginner in server so I am struggling to migrate the cloud.internalpositioning server to something of my own I have been trying to follow the instructions for setting up your server on the docs.A lot of the times find3's server is down so I cannot depend on that.Any help will be appreciated as I mentioned I am a beginner.

I am not clear about a few things from the server setup doc :

  1. Where to find MQTT_ADMIN and MQTT_PASS
  2. MQTT_EXTERNAL Public IP. Is it the IP of my device or my local IP from websites like whatsmyip ?
  3. I'm facing some issues even after port forwarding (80 and 443) using my router's dashboard.Are there any alternatives to Caddy.

MQTT_ADMIN, MQTT_PASS and MQTT_EXTERNAL are not required - only if you use mosquitto. You could simply remove them. You do not need port forwarding either if you use the server locally
