Hey guys what's up, first post on Lemmy here. I tried to get a SearXNG instance to run on my home server but cannot seem to get it to work.

.env

# By default listen on https://localhost
# To change this:
# * uncomment SEARXNG_HOSTNAME, and replace  by the SearXNG hostname
# * uncomment LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL, and replace  by your email (require to create a Let's Encrypt certificate)

SEARXNG_HOSTNAME=search.xxxxx.com
# LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL=

docker-compose.yml

version: '3.7'

services:

#  caddy:
#    container_name: caddy
#    image: caddy:2-alpine
#    network_mode: host
#    volumes:
#      - ./Caddyfile:/etc/caddy/Caddyfile:ro
#      - caddy-data:/data:rw
#      - caddy-config:/config:rw
#    environment:
#      - SEARXNG_HOSTNAME=${SEARXNG_HOSTNAME:-http://localhost:80}
#      - SEARXNG_TLS=${LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL:-internal}
#    cap_drop:
#      - ALL
#    cap_add:
#      - NET_BIND_SERVICE

    container_name: redis

    command: redis-server --save "" --appendonly "no"

# see https://docs.searxng.org/admin/engines/settings.html#use-default-settings
use_default_settings: true
server:
  # base_url is defined in the SEARXNG_BASE_URL environment variable, see .env and docker-compose.yml
  secret_key: "THE_SECRET_KEY"  # change this!
  limiter: true  # can be disabled for a private instance
  image_proxy: true
ui:
  static_use_hash: true
redis:
  url: redis://redis:6379/0

I commented out the caddy stuff in the docker-compose.yml as I have an extra instance of caddy that handles all the reverse proxy and cert stuff. Even if I run this with caddy not commented out I get the same errors.

Any help is appreciated. This doesn't seem to be a common error out there as there is not much info on the web.

Thanks and have a good day!
