Synapse setup with Mautrix Double puppeting bridges. No Bot Chats available.

Playbook Configuration:

My vars.yml file looks like this:

---
# The bare domain name which represents your Matrix identity.
# Matrix user ids for your server will be of the form (`@user:<matrix-domain>`).
#
# Note: this playbook does not touch the server referenced here.
# Installation happens on another server ("matrix.<matrix-domain>").
#
# If you've deployed using the wrong domain, you'll have to run the Uninstalling step,
# because you can't change the Domain after deployment.
#
# Example value: example.com
matrix_domain: spedswir.com

# The Matrix homeserver software to install.
# See:
#  - `roles/custom/matrix-base/defaults/main.yml` for valid options
# - the `docs/configuring-playbook-IMPLEMENTATION_NAME.md` documentation page, if one is available for your implementation choice

# You can put any string here, but generating a strong one is preferred (e.g. `pwgen -s 64 1`).

# By default, the playbook manages its own Traefik (https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/) reverse-proxy server.
# It will retrieve SSL certificates for you on-demand and forward requests to all other components.
# For alternatives, see `docs/configuring-playbook-own-webserver.md`.

# By default, we configure Coturn's external IP address using the value specified for `ansible_host` in your `inventory/hosts` file.
# If this value is an external IP address, you can skip this section.
#
# If `ansible_host` is not the server's external IP address, you have 2 choices:
# 1. Uncomment the line below, to allow IP address auto-detection to happen (more on this below)
# 2. Uncomment and adjust the line below to specify an IP address manually
#
# By default, auto-detection will be attempted using the `https://ifconfig.co/json` API.
# Default values for this are specified in `matrix_coturn_turn_external_ip_address_auto_detection_*` variables in the Coturn role
# (see `roles/custom/matrix-coturn/defaults/main.yml`).
#
# If your server has multiple IP addresses, you may define them in another variable which allows a list of addresses.

Matrix Server:

• OS: Ubuntu Server LTS 24.04
• Architecture: amd64 running on a virtual machine under Proxmox

Ansible:
Ansible is run on my desktop conencting to the VM over the network. Version: ansible [core 2.17.0]

Problem description:

I have successfully installed Synapse with this playbook, and have element web installed and it all runs and works. Federation works well and I have no problems with any of that.

However, when I tried to added the mautrix bots with double puppeting the docker containers get created and run, but no bot chats are available. If i try to start a chat with @DiscordBot:spedswir.com it tells me that no user exists, I have tried starting a chat anyway but there is no response when i send a message to create the room.

I have tried reinstalling on a fresh VM as I tried setting it up after my last server had been running for a while, I even tried adding a few of the other bots (facebook, instagram, and whatsapp) but they all seem to have the same issue. I even tried reinstalling once as dendrite instead of synapse with the same issue presenting.

This has happened both with the element electron app as well as the electron app running on my server at element.spedswir.com

Client (please complete the following information):

• Device: Desktop
• OS: EndeavourOS (Also Windows 11 before formatting)
• Browser: Firefox
• Version: 127.0 (64-bit)

I got the output for "journalctl -u matrix-mautrix-discord" and this seems to be the main error: ERR Request failed error="request error: Get "http://matrix-traefik:8008/_matrix/client/versions?user_id=%40discordbot%3Aspedswir.com\": dial tcp 172.23.0.2:8008: connect: connection refused" as_user_id=@DiscordBot:spedswir.com duration=2.322458 method=GET req_id=1 url=http://matrix-traefik:8008/_matrix/client/versions?user_id=%40discordbot%3Asped>

From some googling it looks like the bot's docker container isnt on the traefik network.

[Spedswir]

The issues was to do with devture_traefik_additional_entrypoints_auto: overwriting the traefik settings and causing the virtual network to fail.
