Thanks for the input iron. I did increase the pagefile size.
If I were to buy a cheap server I would still need to host it out of my home. Anyone offering a commercial service? The idea of using the pi is because I had it sitting around available. If I need to spend money on this I would rather a good solution. Often the internet at my place is unreliable.

Thanks for the responses. I never did get the server completely installed. Seems there was always one problem or another.

I'm still interested in getting a private server set up. What are my options? I don't have another computer that I can dedicate.

Any place online I can rent one?

Thanks

I appreciate the input and the time you took to reply. I've seen several posts were individuals have stated they've been able to run a server just fine for a few people. I have a spare model 3 sitting around and thought it would be worth the attempt.

I'll be happy if I can get it installed even if it fails to function. I'll only be out my time and effort and I'll undoubtedly learn quite a bit in the process.

Can you help?

Good evening all. I've spent the evening trying to get a server setup on a RPI 3. I've gotten so many error messages I don't even know where to start anymore.

I'm going to reload the OS tomorrow and start over. Does anyone know of a good guild online that details the proper steps? How about an image that's already been setup?

I'm definitely in need of some help.
