# Do this now (gluecron live + admin)
One page. Five steps. Copy-paste in order.
## 1. SSH to the metal box
```sh
ssh root@45.76.171.37
```
If SSH key-only is enabled and your key isn't loaded, use Vultr's vSerial
console from the dashboard — it accepts the root password from server
Overview → "Show Password".
## 2. Clone + configure (first-time only)
```sh
git clone https://github.com/ccantynz-alt/Gluecron.com.git /opt/gluecron
cd /opt/gluecron
git checkout claude/new-session-xk1l7 # the deploy + admin scripts live here
cp .env.example .env
vim .env # set DATABASE_URL at minimum (Neon connection string)
```
Redeploy on later visits:
```sh
cd /opt/gluecron && git pull && docker compose up -d --build
```
## 3. Bring up the stack
```sh
docker compose up -d --build
docker compose logs -f caddy # ctrl-c once you see "certificate obtained"
```
Then run migrations:
```sh
docker compose exec gluecron bun run db:migrate
```
## 4. Register your account
- Open https://gluecron.com/register in a browser
- Email + password. Use the same email you want to be admin under.
- First registered user auto-promotes per bootstrap rule — but to be safe:
## 5. Confirm + promote yourself to admin
```sh
docker compose exec gluecron bun run scripts/check-admin.ts you@example.com
```
If it says "NOT admin":
```sh
docker compose exec gluecron bun run scripts/promote-admin.ts you@example.com
```
Log out, log back in, visit https://gluecron.com/admin — should render.
## 6. Verify (optional but quick)
```sh
bash scripts/verify-deploy.sh https://gluecron.com
```
All lines should show OK. If any FAIL, look at the line and debug just that.

## Troubleshooting
**Caddy logs say "acme: error issuing certificate":** DNS is wrong or
Cloudflare proxy is on. Check `dig +short gluecron.com` returns
`45.76.171.37` and that the orange cloud is grey in Cloudflare.
**`docker compose exec` says "service is not running":** check
`docker compose ps`. If gluecron is restarting, `docker compose logs gluecron`.
Most common cause: `DATABASE_URL` wrong or Neon project paused.
**`/register` returns 500:** DB migrations probably weren't run. Re-run
`docker compose exec gluecron bun run db:migrate`.
**"Cannot find module 'src/db/client'":** the scripts assume the working
directory is the repo root inside the container, which is the default for
`docker compose exec`. If you're running them on the host, prefix with
`bun --cwd /opt/gluecron run scripts/...`.
