Seeking advice on RCE setup: Self-Hosted
Nicholas Hadley
Hi there,
Relatively new to all of this. Trying to get RCE setup on our new self-hosted Canvas. We didn’t use docker but rather have it running along side it on the VM. I keep getting 401 errors related to RCE when loading a page to edit.
I can’t figure out if it’s something to do with the session cookie or something else I’m missing entirely. Again, very new to this and any advice is appreciated.

I just got this setup and working on my self-hosted canvas. I did a bit of a write up.

Let me know if you run into any issues and I will correct my documentation.

Chris, thanks so much.
I actually had to start back from zero and am having a heck of a time.
Canvas it seems has made an update as of 7/2 and now I can’t get anything to start- https://github.com/instructure/canvas-lms/wiki/Production-Start#dependency-installation
I’ve tried to install Ruby @ 3.3.1 (I then get a gemfile error saying it’s specified to be 3.4.1) but when I install 3.4.1, I get Passenger issues and it won’t start up.
If you have any time to assist I’d greatly appreciate it and happily buy you a cup of coffee over zoom or something.

Thanks so much, Chris. It’s much appreciated. What’s awful is I got this all working last week, and then when tinkering with RCE lost it, and then it looks like they updated to Ruby 3.4.1 and now it’s totally locked up.
Enjoy the time off!
