New to Cloudron & Matrix/Element

Hello, I am new to Cloudron and am not a technical person. Is there any place where I can find a simple easy to follow step by step installation guide for Matrix. I believe to have read and tried everything available on docs & forum.

@stefanwirtz What step are you stuck at?

Thank you @andreasdueren - I have installed the Matrix app and am trying to make federation work. For federation to work, the delegation URI https://$CLOUDRON-APP-DOMAIN/.well-known/matrix/server must be configured. See the docs on how to do this. As a next step in the domain & certs interface, I set the well known locations of my domain to synapse.example.com:443 // toots.example.com // jitsi.example.com - after this step I tried verifying the settings via SSH on my VPS server and only got error messages.

Hello @stefanwirtz

What did you try to verify and how, and what was the error message?
.well-knownis served for the root domain see https://docs.cloudron.io/domains/#well-known-locationsQuote:
Requires app on bare domain
In the above example, an app must be installed on the bare domain https://cloudron.club for Cloudron to be able to respond to well known queries.Did you follow this step?
Matrix federation can be tested with this web tool: https://federationtester.matrix.org and in there you put the bare domain e.g.
cloudron.cluband notsynapse.cloudron.club. -
https://docs.cloudron.io/packages/synapse/#post-installation
After setting up the well known URI as indicated, I tried to verify the delegation setup using Putty SSH to my VPS with the command $ curl https://example.com/.well-known/matrix/server
{ "m.server": "synapse.example.com:443" }
of course, having subsituted example with my domain namethe error message I got was
command not foundFederation also, did not work
