Before problems, here's a few tips to see whether there is a problem:

  • You configure The Construct by using the console (or the !control:SERVERNAME room). Settings get stored in RocksDB. No config file is not a problem.

  • Database/configuration is stored in SERVERNAME folder, that's the only parameter you have to use starting the server. You can try various server configurations in parallel by using a different server name.

There are some things which is not yet fixed and knowing it may help to new admins:

  • Updating git pulls advised to make cleaned before (re)build. (https://github.com/matrix-construct/construct/issues/84)

  • Using LetsEncrypt certificates works well, but you have to give fullchain.pem twice:

    • net listen matrix * 8448 privkey.pem fullchain.pem fullchain.pem

  • You may be unsatisfied with the default DNS caching resolvers (namely 4.2.2.2 really breaks things), you can change it as:

    • conf set ircd.net.dns.resolver.servers 1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8 9.9.9.9

  • If you screw up the config and the server doesn't start you can force configuration by using environment variables like:

    • ircd_client_sync_linear_buffer_size=524288 bin/construct SERVERNAME

  • Your helpful crowd sits in the room #construct:zemos.net (alias #admins:matrix.org, #construct:maunium.net, #construct:colab.de)
