I followed this guide to set up a Matrix server on my Pi. The only hiccup I ran into during setup was under “Setting up Synapse server,” step 11, the “Registration” section wasn’t present in homeserver.yaml. This server is meant to just run bridges to WhatsApp/Facebook/etc. so I wasn’t too worried, and forged ahead.

I’m getting the title error when trying to connect via Element. Federation Tester gives the following error:

Get “https://[my ipv6 address]:8448/_matrix/key/v2/server”: dial tcp [my ipv6 address]:8448: i/o timeout (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Check your proxy’s CORS origin statements and make sure they align with the recommended config for your brand of proxy (nginx, caddy, etc.) I had a similar issue with mine and that solved it. Consult your doctor if your proxy can’t stay running longer than four hours.

I appreciate the help but unfortunately have no idea how to do that. Before this, my only real experience was Plex on Windows and light desktop usage on Linux, so I’m pretty green.

I did configure nginx in the tutorial.
