@austinkocher @Gargron @Mastodon Dear Mastodon team, I followed installation guide on docs.joinmastodon.org and I have problems with my instance, it's unusable - see https://cztwitter.cz

I used droplet on Digital Ocean, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS x64, 4GB RAM, 2 Intel vCPUs, 80GB SSD.

I see error in Sidekiq for Tasks:
UserMailer, AdminMailer
OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError::SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=error: wrong version number

Please, can you help me?

@hugo I know you have too much on your own plate right now but any chance you'd recognize the issue @OliKockova is having here?

@austinkocher @Gargron @Mastodon

@ondra @hugo @Mastodon @Gargron @austinkocher I'm running droplet on Digital Ocean, 4GB RAM, 2 Intel vCPUs, 80 GB SSD @ Ubuntu 22.04 x64.

Used approx. 10% CPU, 35% RAM, 7% SSD, load 0,3.

@OliKockova @ondra @Mastodon @Gargron @austinkocher That looks to me as a SMTP configuration error, you need to look into the SMTP settings in the `.env.production` file.

@ondra @austinkocher @Gargron @hugo @Mastodon I'm using Mailgun SMTP service, credentials are correct. I reset password for SMTP sender for sure and aplied in .env.production.

In Sidekiq I can see another error:
For ActivityPub::DeliveryWorker
Mastodon::UnexpectedResponseError: https://mstdn.social/users/*username*/Inbox returned code 401

@OliKockova @ondra @austinkocher @Gargron @Mastodon That is a completely different error. Sorry but I can't help you with that. I am struggling for time on my end.

@ondra @austinkocher @hugo @Gargron @Mastodon OK, thank you.

I'll try to reinstall Mastodon.
