I spent hours trying to figure out the domain stuff since I just wanted it to run locally for a demo. Turns out none of that was necessary. This was a huge help, thank you so much!
Made it until 11:10, but trying to open bookstack in my browser only displays firefoxes "unable to connect" text... Does anyone know if this might have something to do with me also having an apache sever running?
You need to include the ENV variable "APP_URL" in the Bookstack docker compose section and set the IP address to whatever your host machine IP is. For example: "- APP_URL=:6875"
I'm at the last steps! I was able to do everything up to 2:30 but I can't seem to find the IP for my bookstack. I'm using VirtualBox with Ubuntu installed on it if that helps.
Hi Techdox I was trying to load the docker compose file in 3 location 1. My user home directory 2. /srv 3. /mnt (as shown in your video) When i run "docker-compose up" 1. the one in my home directory managed to run ,but i cannot connect to the site 2. /SRV wont allow it. (permission issue) 3/ /mnt works if may i know if there are any security setting for folder that i need to take note of before running this.? Even though you said loading it on /mnt is not a good habit. nonetheless its the only one that works for me
I wish I could find just one Bookstack tutorial that covers how to connect the docker container to an EXISTING mariadb installation so I don't have to create a whole docker container every time I set something up.
@@Techdox one would think so. I created a user in mariadb, gave it all privileges, but the container still can't connect to it. I've tried setting the DB_HOST to the IP address of the server as well as localhost, but no luck. Reading the error logs, it may be related to it trying to connect with [user]@[docker network ip] instead of [user]@localhost. I'm stumped.
Hello, thanks for the tutoria, I am using Windows as opperating system and Im using Ubuntu as terminal but I cant create folders in my desktop, do u have any hint what to do and how to solve this problem?

The same for me, I do not know what to do. I used te IP address of my container and it did not work

best bookstack tutorial. thanks my friend.
Excellent tutorial! Thank you!
how do we know the IP i created the docker image on ?
@@DeepakPoojary it’s the local IP of the machine running docker, you can run “ip addr” to list your ip addresses

If you already have a database then you can just stand up the instance and use environment variables to point to your current database

Self host yourself.
good video but you need to get your audio levels right - you're muuch quieter than other youtubers
ah, seems it might be just this video. others on your channel ok
Yeah, sorry about that. The audio was actually recorded too high and was peaking, so I had to lower the volume to fix it :)
great video my man. make more please
