This is a place for providing instructions, documenting changes, and troubleshooting problems regarding SudoPad, the etherpad-lite instance running on the sudomesh server.
Etherpad lite is a real time collaborative editor which allows multiple users to simultaneously work with the same document.
SudoPad is available at https://peoplesopen.net/pad or https://peoplesopen.net:9001. The following guide was used for initial setup, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Etherpad-liteInstallation. Other documentation regarding etherpad can be found in its repo, https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite.
Troubleshooting
If you receive an nginx error (like 503 bad gateway) when going to https://peoplesopen.net/pad:
- Try going to https://peoplesopen.net:9001
- If this also fails, start (or restart) the etherpad instance by logging into sudomesh server and running,
sudo start etherpad-lite
TODO
