I get docens of these messages per minute:

Got error 'PHP message: PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Exception: Bad resource in /var/www/gnusocial/.well-known/webfinger/index.php:26\nStack trace:\n#0 {main}\n thrown in /var/www/gnusocial/.well-known/webfinger/index.php on line 26\n'

I really don't know if it is a bug or a misconfiguration; I just followed instructions from docs, and changed example.com for gnusocial.net.

Is that in gnusocial.net? If so, why do you need to use that script?

Yes, on gnusocial.net. I don't get it... Is it not needed? I just enabled it because it is in https://notabug.org/diogo/gnu-social/src/1.20.x/DOCUMENTATION/SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATORS/socialfy-another-domain

It is not needed. As the name suggests (or at least, intends to), "socialfy-another-domain" should only be used when you're using the same GNU social with another domain, subdomain or path. E.g.: When I use: me@diogo.site, it will present itself as diogo@loadaverage.org .

You would use that (actually, the one in nightly and not that one) when:

domain.tld/gnusocial (as webfinger has to be available in the root of the domain)

social.domain.tld (you could insert this in domain.tld to allow your users shorter webfinger ids)

or yet domain.tld + alias.tld (in which you would add this in alias.tld's root)

The bold one is the key case to use the stuff available in that directory.
