Can't bulk import

[KodeIn]

Hello.
While trying sharkey on my server I stumbled on a slight problem. When bulk import emotes, I get this king of message in journalctl logs :

ERR  1        [queue db]        failed(RequestError: Blocked address: 127.0.0.1) id=9699 {
   job: {
     info: 'id=9699 attempts=1/0 age=19ms',
     data: { user: [Object], fileId: 'a485c4g470' },
     name: 'importCustomEmojis',
     failedReason: 'Blocked address: 127.0.0.1'
   },
   e: {
     stack: 'RequestError: Blocked address: 127.0.0.1\n' +

     message: 'Blocked address: 127.0.0.1',
     name: 'RequestError'
   }
 }

I also tried to import .CSV file exported from my vanilla mastodon instance containing accounts that I'm following without success. I don't know if it's the same problem but since it may I mention it here.

I have no troubles adding manually a single new emote nor following manually accounts.

As I'm quite inexperienced at managing servers I don't know if it's a problem specific to my system or a more generic problem but I'd be glad getting some help to fix it.

Hi! I've also had this problem but havent gotten round to making a PR. Also not sure about the security implications of the solution.

What i did was add the following to /var/www/sharkey/.config/default.yml:

allowedPrivateNetworks: [
  '127.0.0.1/8'
]

and add the following to /etc/nginx/your.sharkey.domain.d/sharkey.conf:

location / {
  allow 127.0.0.1;
  ...
}

Then restart nginx and sharkey with

sudo yunohost service restart nginx
sudo yunohost service restart sharkey

It still seems to be very heavily rate limited (only like 1 import per hour or so) but it seems to work for me. Lmk how it goes for you!

Thanks, everything works perfectly now. No more excuses to not migrate my account.

Awesome! Will open a PR to close this issue soon :)
