Needlessly dismissive for someone who needs help. Yes he is probably in over his head but who hasn’t been.

…that was meant to be a joke. I had a gut feeling I should have used a time indicator. My bad

No I didn’t

I was following the steps on the Lemmy-ansible github page
RCTreeFiddy@lemmy.world 10 months ago
And which step in this process did you get stuck, and what were the errors, if any?
You gotta give us some more info here.

Step 7. I dont have the errors now but I don’t think I had ansible or ssh set up
I dont really understand it as this is the first thing I am trying to selfhost other than a minecraft server.

SSH may be installed on the pi but may need to be enabled. That was the second to last bullet pint in the requirements. The final on being to install Ansible. If you did not get the requirements taken care of, installation will not be successful.
Please first try to SSH into your pi. Once you have that done, you should install Ansible. After that, you should be able to run the playbook from step 7 and we can proceed from there.

And what exactly happens?

I’ve replied to a different comment in this thread about what happened already

I don’t see anything like that in this thread. If you want people’s help, help them help you and provide sufficient information about your problem.

This it should be no issue for you to copy and paste that answer in our conversation.
