- SSH into your instance as the ec2-user user and run "
cat ttrss_pass
". - Be sure to update the Site Title and URLs in the site settings.
Enable SSL/HTTP2
HTTP2 only works work with SSL/TLS so you need a valid certificate pair (See: Using LetsEncrypt for free certs)
Configure local Email sending
COG images come with SSMTP (a send-only sendmail emulator) installed.
To configure SSMTP to send via Gmail, you will have to edit its configuration file and enter your account settings:
#### /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf
## The user that gets all the mails (UID < 1000, usually the admin)
root=username@gmail.com
## The mail server (where the mail is sent to), both port 465 or 587 should be acceptable
## See also http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78799

## The address where the mail appears to come from for user authentication.
rewriteDomain=gmail.com
## The full hostname

UseSTARTTLS=Yes
## Username/Password
