Hi, I'm trying to self-host vocard on a linux vps running ubuntu 22.04. I'm trying to install vocard using the python installer to set up the docker images. I used the deadsnakes ppa to install Python 3.11 and ran the installer with that interpreter. After installing, when I run

sudo docker compose up -d

I can see the vocard-db, vocard, yt-cipher & lavalink containers come up. However, when I check the logs, I get a "no nodes available" error:

vocard | 2025-10-20 22:18:12 ERROR vocard Node DEFAULT is not able to connect! - Reason: The connection to node 'DEFAULT' failed.

and a similar error message when I use the /play command in a test discord server. I ran
ss | grep 2333 and similar for port 27017 and as far as I know both ports are not in use. Any idea what might be causing the issue?

No dice, unfortunately. Just ran sudo docker compose restart, still getting the same error

only restart the vocard container

aha okay one sec

#

I'm getting a different error now, "Please sign in The next song will begin in the next 5 seconds."

#

with a cache miss error in the logs

seems like your vps network was flagged by youtube. you have to setup oauth in your lavalink

ah okay, thanks. i'll try generating an oauth token and update you with my progress
