I’m no expert as the thread proves, but the move yesterday from GD to NameSilo was a breeze. To top it off, the glue and dns appears to have picked up my server within about 3 min, my MiaB dashboard went to check boxes. So I will be moving all my GD parked names over to NameSilo asap.
Yeh that could be the case - I’ve found the urge to be anxious and trying to get everything done in (with the green checks) to be counter productive when I was setting.
Better would be to have a good idea what needs to be done (which you have covered) and after you execute; go to bed, come back next evening and then do the check. Its easier to get a feel for what is going right/wrong if you don’t have to worry about different update states from different DNS servers…
Odd, I am still seeing the failures on the Provision from Let’s encrypt. I believe I am now way past the 48 hour mark as I did the move on Sat, it is now Tue, any ideas?
Also an oddity, I opened box.tornmedia.com/mail and saw Database Error: Database not connected at the top of the page, nothing else showing. I had not opened that page to date, not sure if this is related to the provisioning of tls, but I doubt it…any other ideas?

Also, I set STORAGE_ROOT to a dir I created under root, does that dir need special settings? I noticed a fail in php line 1 when installing nextcloud I think, didn’t capture it fast enough, with all the domain moving I didn’t think about folder settings…

For some reason it is all in one line. Does it match the contents of /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log?
Anything that is in the /root/ directory will only be readable by the root user, which is pretty much never the user reading anything. Changing these permissions will present serious security issues for your server.
If I remember correctly you were going to set up Secondary DNS …
but what is the longer picture? You are going to be serving email for other domains from this box, correct? And where will the DNS be handled for those domains? MiaB or externally? If MiaB, do those domains have web sites and other services? If yes, you ABSOLUTELY should set up Secondary DNS for each domain. If DNS is going to be handled elsewhere, nothing more to do with those domains re DNS.
Correct, I do plan to serve email for some other domains in the not too distant futute, and yes they will all have websites (probably not on MiaB as they will be more dynamic) at minimum.
