EGroupware development enviroment as Docker container - installation fails

[AlexS]

Dear @RalfBecker,
I followed the instructions at https://github.com/EGroupware/egroupware/tree/master/doc/docker/development#egroupware-development-enviroment-as-docker-container

I created a dev dir under ~/docker and in this dev directory I ran

mkdir sources data

But when I ran

sudo docker-compose up -d

the the installation stopped with the following error:

Do you have any clue what I am doing wrong?

Thank for your support and BR

What OS are you using?

Ubuntu 18.4

I will call you

Do you have any clue what I am doing wrong?

Can you check that your sources folder contains the swoolpush app/directory?

Hello Ralf,
after the fixes you made, today I gave it a new try on another a clean Ubuntu 18.04 system. It worked without changing anything at

docker-compose.yml

and following these steps:

• First I installed Docker Engine as described here https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/ubuntu/

• From the available versions

$ apt-cache madison docker-ce
docker-ce | 5:19.03.5~3-0~ubuntu-bionic | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu bionic/stable amd64 Packages
docker-ce | 5:19.03.4~3-0~ubuntu-bionic | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu bionic/stable amd64 Packages
docker-ce | 5:19.03.3~3-0~ubuntu-bionic | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu bionic/stable amd64 Packages
docker-ce | 5:19.03.2~3-0~ubuntu-bionic | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu bionic/stable amd64 Packages
docker-ce | 5:19.03.1~3-0~ubuntu-bionic | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu bionic/stable amd64 Packages
docker-ce | 5:19.03.0~3-0~ubuntu-bionic | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu bionic/stable amd64 Packages
docker-ce | 5:18.09.9~3-0~ubuntu-bionic | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu bionic/stable amd64 Packages
docker-ce | 5:18.09.8~3-0~ubuntu-bionic | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu bionic/stable amd64 Packages
docker-ce | 5:18.09.7~3-0~ubuntu-bionic | https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu bionic/stable amd64 Packages …

• I used the following:

5:18.09.9~3-0~ubuntu-bionic

• Then I added my laptop user to the docker group as described here https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/linux-postinstall/ to be able to run composer command as a normal user

$ sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

• Then I installed docker-compose using

$ sudo apt install docker-compose

• Then, as described in https://github.com/EGroupware/egroupware/tree/master/doc/docker/development#egroupware-development-enviroment-as-docker-container

mkdir dev && cd dev
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EGroupware/egroupware/master/doc/docker/development/docker-compose.yml
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EGroupware/egroupware/master/doc/docker/development/nginx.conf
mkdir sources data

• And in the dev directory

$ docker-compose up -d

• Then the installation started but did not finish, at some point it could not find the directory

sources/egroupware/swoolepush

• I manually created the directory

swoolepush

• and set ownership of sources folder and all its subfolders and files to my laptop user

• then I executed again:

$ docker-compose up -d

• and then

$ docker-compose logs -f egroupware

to see the egroupware installation progress inside the container.

• At some point it finished and I was able to access EGroupware via my web-browser:

http://localhost:8080/egroupware
