.deb install

I installed go-ssb-room_2.0.6_Linux_x86_64.deb

I had a look in sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/go-ssb-room.service

Which showed. localhost:8899

I had a look at https://github.com/ssb-ngi-pointer/go-ssb-room/blob/master/docs/files/debian-postinstall.sh
So I did
adduser --system --home /var/lib/go-ssb-room go-ssb-room
chown go-ssb-room /var/lib/go-ssb-room
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl start go-ssb-room

http://127.0.0.1:8899/ displays 'bad host'

I don't really understand what this line means: "you need to at least change the https domain in the systemd service."

Is it configured to work out of the box on localhost?

cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)" 5.10.0-13-amd64

👋 @samuk, it is referring to the option provided by the go-ssb-room binary:

➜  server (master) ✔ ./server -h
Usage of ./server:
  ...
  -https-domain string
    	which domain to use for TLS and AllowedHosts checks
  ...

You can see an example of this in the example systemd file:

https://github.com/ssb-ngi-pointer/go-ssb-room/blob/6f5edbaa438fe473cc865e283bb3fd32de231c44/docs/files/example-systemd.service#L15

Where you need to change -https-domain my-example-room.somewhere to your domain.

I think this could be clearer in the output, do you have a suggestion? We could submit a docs PR then.
