description: Fixed IndeedHub on Arch 3 (100.124.105.113) — corrupted image tarball was root cause, all 7 containers now running
type: project

## Status: FIXED and working (verified 2026-03-17)

IndeedHub on Arch 3 (`100.124.105.113`) is fully operational — all 7 containers running, frontend on :7777, API healthy, NIP-07 nostr-provider injected.

## Root Cause

The `/tmp/indeedhub-all-images.tar` on Arch 3 was corrupted — `podman save` with multiple images collapsed ALL 7 images to the same image ID (the frontend nginx image `7222645f0b38`). So redis, minio, API, ffmpeg-worker, postgres, and relay were all running the frontend nginx binary.

**Why:** `podman save` with multiple images sharing layers can produce broken tarballs where all images get the same config/ID.

## What Was Done

1. Removed all broken containers and images
2. Pulled fresh standard images from Docker Hub (postgres:16-alpine, redis:7-alpine, minio:latest, nostr-rs-relay:latest)
3. Exported each custom image as **individual tarballs** from .228 (NOT combined):
   - `indeedhub-frontend.tar` (149MB, ID: `7222645f0b38`)
   - `indeedhub-api.tar` (403MB, ID: `2ae2665fc6c7`)
   - `indeedhub-ffmpeg.tar` (525MB, ID: `cb05b5cf8c25`)
4. Transferred via Mac (`.228` → Mac → Arch 3 over Tailscale)
5. Loaded images individually, created all 7 containers manually (bypassed the deploy script's broken `podman load` step)
6. Copied nostr-provider.js + nginx config with sub_filter from .228 container into Arch 3 container via `podman cp`

## Remaining Issue — Deploy Script

The deploy script at `/tmp/deploy-indeedhub.sh` on Arch 3 still references the broken `/tmp/indeedhub-all-images.tar`. If it's run again it will re-corrupt the images. The individual tarballs (`/tmp/indeedhub-frontend.tar`, `/tmp/indeedhub-api.tar`, `/tmp/indeedhub-ffmpeg.tar`) are on Arch 3 and should be used instead.

**How to apply:** Next time deploying IndeedHub to any node, always export images individually, never as a combined tarball. Consider updating the deploy script to load individual tarballs.
