--- title: Documentation type: index weight: 3 --- ## List current running Containers ```bash docker ps ``` You can also use the following command if you want to see only this project containers: ```bash docker-compose ps ```
## Close all running Containers ```bash docker-compose stop ``` To stop single container do: ```bash docker-compose stop {container-name} ```
## Delete all existing Containers ```bash docker-compose down ```
## Enter a Container (run commands in a running Container) 1 - First list the current running containers with `docker ps` 2 - Enter any container using: ```bash docker-compose exec {container-name} bash ``` *Example: enter MySQL container* ```bash docker-compose exec mysql bash ``` *Example: enter to MySQL prompt within MySQL container* ```bash docker-compose exec mysql mysql -u homestead -psecret ``` 3 - To exit a container, type `exit`.
## Edit default container configuration Open the `docker-compose.yml` and change anything you want. Examples: Change MySQL Database Name: ```yml environment: MYSQL_DATABASE: laradock ... ``` Change Redis default port to 1111: ```yml ports: - "1111:6379" ... ```
## Edit a Docker Image 1 - Find the `Dockerfile` of the image you want to edit,
example for `mysql` it will be `mysql/Dockerfile`. 2 - Edit the file the way you want. 3 - Re-build the container: ```bash docker-compose build mysql ``` More info on Containers rebuilding [here](#Build-Re-build-Containers).
## Build/Re-build Containers If you do any change to any `Dockerfile` make sure you run this command, for the changes to take effect: ```bash docker-compose build ``` Optionally you can specify which container to rebuild (instead of rebuilding all the containers): ```bash docker-compose build {container-name} ``` You might use the `--no-cache` option if you want full rebuilding (`docker-compose build --no-cache {container-name}`).
## Add more Software (Docker Images) To add an image (software), just edit the `docker-compose.yml` and add your container details, to do so you need to be familiar with the [docker compose file syntax](https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/).
## View the Log files The NGINX Log file is stored in the `logs/nginx` directory. However to view the logs of all the other containers (MySQL, PHP-FPM,...) you can run this: ```bash docker-compose logs {container-name} ``` ```bash docker-compose logs -f {container-name} ``` More [options](https://docs.docker.com/compose/reference/logs/)
## Install PHP Extensions Before installing PHP extensions, you have to decide first whether you need `FPM` or `CLI`, because each of them has it's own different container, if you need it for both, you have to edit both containers. The PHP-FPM extensions should be installed in `php-fpm/Dockerfile-XX`. *(replace XX with your default PHP version number)*.
The PHP-CLI extensions should be installed in `workspace/Dockerfile`.
## Change the (PHP-FPM) Version By default the latest stable PHP versin is configured to run. >The PHP-FPM is responsible of serving your application code, you don't have to change the PHP-CLI version if you are planning to run your application on different PHP-FPM version. ### A) Switch from PHP `7.2` to PHP `5.6` 1 - Open the `.env`. 2 - Search for `PHP_VERSION`. 3 - Set the desired version number: ```dotenv PHP_VERSION=5.6 ``` 4 - Finally rebuild the image ```bash docker-compose build php-fpm ``` > For more details about the PHP base image, visit the [official PHP docker images](https://hub.docker.com/_/php/).
## Change the PHP-CLI Version By default **PHP-CLI 7.0** is running. >Note: it's not very essential to edit the PHP-CLI version. The PHP-CLI is only used for the Artisan Commands & Composer. It doesn't serve your Application code, this is the PHP-FPM job. The PHP-CLI is installed in the Workspace container. To change the PHP-CLI version you need to simply change the `PHP_VERSION` in te .env file as follow: 1 - Open the `.env`. 2 - Search for `PHP_VERSION`. 3 - Set the desired version number: ```dotenv PHP_VERSION=7.2 ``` 4 - Finally rebuild the image ```bash docker-compose build workspace ```
## Install xDebug 1 - First install `xDebug` in the Workspace and the PHP-FPM Containers:
a) open the `.env` file
b) search for the `WORKSPACE_INSTALL_XDEBUG` argument under the Workspace Container
c) set it to `true`
d) search for the `PHP_FPM_INSTALL_XDEBUG` argument under the PHP-FPM Container
e) set it to `true` 2 - Re-build the containers `docker-compose build workspace php-fpm` For information on how to configure xDebug with your IDE and work it out, check this [Repository](https://github.com/LarryEitel/laravel-laradock-phpstorm) or follow up on the next section if you use linux and PhpStorm.
## Install phpdbg Install `phpdbg` in the Workspace and the PHP-FPM Containers:
1 - Open the `.env`. 2 - Search for `WORKSPACE_INSTALL_PHPDBG`. 3 - Set value to `true` 4 - Do the same for `PHP_FPM_INSTALL_PHPDBG` ```dotenv WORKSPACE_INSTALL_PHPDBG=true ``` ```dotenv PHP_FPM_INSTALL_PHPDBG=true ``` ## Setup remote debugging for PhpStorm on Linux - Make sure you have followed the steps above in the [Install Xdebug section](#install-xdebug). - Make sure Xdebug accepts connections and listens on port 9000. (Should be default configuration). ![Debug Configuration](/images/photos/PHPStorm/linux/configuration/debugConfiguration.png "Debug Configuration"). - Create a server with name `laradock` (matches **PHP_IDE_CONFIG** key in environment file) and make sure to map project root path with server correctly. ![Server Configuration](/images/photos/PHPStorm/linux/configuration/serverConfiguration.png "Server Configuration"). - Start listening for debug connections, place a breakpoint and you are good to go !
## Start/Stop xDebug: By installing xDebug, you are enabling it to run on startup by default. To control the behavior of xDebug (in the `php-fpm` Container), you can run the following commands from the Laradock root folder, (at the same prompt where you run docker-compose): - Stop xDebug from running by default: `.php-fpm/xdebug stop`. - Start xDebug by default: `.php-fpm/xdebug start`. - See the status: `.php-fpm/xdebug status`. Note: If `.php-fpm/xdebug` doesn't execute and gives `Permission Denied` error the problem can be that file `xdebug` doesn't have execution access. This can be fixed by running `chmod` command with desired access permissions.
## Install ionCube Loader 1 - First install `ionCube Loader` in the Workspace and the PHP-FPM Containers:
a) open the `.env` file
b) search for the `WORKSPACE_INSTALL_IONCUBE` argument under the Workspace Container
c) set it to `true`
d) search for the `PHP_FPM_INSTALL_IONCUBE` argument under the PHP-FPM Container
e) set it to `true` 2 - Re-build the containers `docker-compose build workspace php-fpm` Always download the latest version of [Loaders for ionCube ](http://www.ioncube.com/loaders.php).
## Install Deployer (Deployment tool for PHP) 1 - Open the `.env` file
2 - Search for the `WORKSPACE_INSTALL_DEPLOYER` argument under the Workspace Container
3 - Set it to `true`
4 - Re-build the containers `docker-compose build workspace` [**Deployer Documentation Here**](https://deployer.org/docs)

## Prepare Laradock for Production It's recommended for production to create a custom `docker-compose.yml` file. For that reason, Laradock is shipped with `production-docker-compose.yml` which should contain only the containers you are planning to run on production (usage example: `docker-compose -f production-docker-compose.yml up -d nginx mysql redis ...`). Note: The Database (MySQL/MariaDB/...) ports should not be forwarded on production, because Docker will automatically publish the port on the host, which is quite insecure, unless specifically told not to. So make sure to remove these lines: ``` ports: - "3306:3306" ``` To learn more about how Docker publishes ports, please read [this excellent post on the subject](https://fralef.me/docker-and-iptables.html).
## Setup Laravel and Docker on Digital Ocean ### [Full Guide Here](/guides/#Digital-Ocean)
## Install Laravel from a Docker Container 1 - First you need to enter the Workspace Container. 2 - Install Laravel. Example using Composer ```bash composer create-project laravel/laravel my-cool-app "5.2.*" ``` > We recommend using `composer create-project` instead of the Laravel installer, to install Laravel. For more about the Laravel installation click [here](https://laravel.com/docs/master#installing-laravel). 3 - Edit `.env` to Map the new application path: By default, Laradock assumes the Laravel application is living in the parent directory of the laradock folder. Since the new Laravel application is in the `my-cool-app` folder, we need to replace `../:/var/www` with `../my-cool-app/:/var/www`, as follow: ```dotenv APP_CODE_PATH_HOST=../my-cool-app/ ``` 4 - Go to that folder and start working.. ```bash cd my-cool-app ``` 5 - Go back to the Laradock installation steps to see how to edit the `.env` file.
## Run Artisan Commands You can run artisan commands and many other Terminal commands from the Workspace container. 1 - Make sure you have the workspace container running. ```bash docker-compose up -d workspace // ..and all your other containers ``` 2 - Find the Workspace container name: ```bash docker-compose ps ``` 3 - Enter the Workspace container: ```bash docker-compose exec workspace bash ``` Note: Should add `--user=laradock` (example `docker-compose exec --user=laradock workspace bash`) to have files created as your host's user to prevent issue owner of log file will be changed to root then laravel website cannot write on log file if using rotated log and new log file not existed 4 - Run anything you want :) ```bash php artisan ``` ```bash Composer update ``` ```bash phpunit ```
## Run Laravel Queue Worker 1 - Create supervisor configuration file (for ex., named `laravel-worker.conf`) for Laravel Queue Worker in `php-worker/supervisord.d/` by simply copy from `laravel-worker.conf.example` 2 - Start everything up ```bash docker-compose up -d php-worker ```
## Run Laravel Scheduler Laradock provides 2 ways to run Laravel Scheduler 1 - Using cron in workspace container. Most of the time, when you start Laradock, it'll automatically start workspace container with cron inside, along with setting to run `schedule:run` command every minute. 2 - Using Supervisord in php-worker to run `schedule:run`. This way is suggested when you don't want to start workspace in production environment.
a) Comment out cron setting in workspace container, file `workspace/crontab/laradock` ```bash # * * * * * laradock /usr/bin/php /var/www/artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1 ```
b) Create supervisor configuration file (for ex., named `laravel-scheduler.conf`) for Laravel Scheduler in `php-worker/supervisord.d/` by simply copy from `laravel-scheduler.conf.example`
c) Start php-worker container ```bash docker-compose up -d php-worker ```
## Use Mailu 1 - You need register a domain. 2 - Required RECAPTCHA for signup email [HERE](https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin) 2 - modify following environment variable in `.env` file ``` MAILU_RECAPTCHA_PUBLIC_KEY= MAILU_RECAPTCHA_PRIVATE_KEY= MAILU_DOMAIN=laradock.io MAILU_HOSTNAMES=mail.laradock.io ``` 2 - Open your browser and visit `http://YOUR_DOMAIN`.
## Use NetData 1 - Run the NetData Container (`netdata`) with the `docker-compose up` command. Example: ```bash docker-compose up -d netdata ``` 2 - Open your browser and visit the localhost on port **19999**: `http://localhost:19999`
## Use Metabase 1 - Run the Metabase Container (`metbase`) with the `docker-compose up` command. Example: ```bash docker-compose up -d metabase ``` 2 - Open your browser and visit the localhost on port **3030**: `http://localhost:3030` 3 - You can use environment to configure Metabase container. See docs in: [Running Metabase on Docker](https://www.metabase.com/docs/v0.12.0/operations-guide/running-metabase-on-docker.html)
## Use Jenkins 1) Boot the container `docker-compose up -d jenkins`. To enter the container type `docker-compose exec jenkins bash`. 2) Go to `http://localhost:8090/` (if you didn't chanhed your default port mapping) 3) Authenticate from the web app. - Default username is `admin`. - Default password is `docker-compose exec jenkins cat /var/jenkins_home/secrets/initialAdminPassword`. (To enter container as root type `docker-compose exec --user root jenkins bash`). 4) Install some plugins. 5) Create your first Admin user, or continue as Admin. Note: to add user go to `http://localhost:8090/securityRealm/addUser` and to restart it from the web app visit `http://localhost:8090/restart`. You may wanna change the default security configuration, so go to `http://localhost:8090/configureSecurity/` under Authorization and choosing "Anyone can do anything" or "Project-based Matrix Authorization Strategy" or anything else.
## Use Redis 1 - First make sure you run the Redis Container (`redis`) with the `docker-compose up` command. ```bash docker-compose up -d redis ``` > To execute redis commands, enter the redis container first `docker-compose exec redis bash` then enter the `redis-cli`. 2 - Open your Laravel's `.env` file and set the `REDIS_HOST` to `redis` ```env REDIS_HOST=redis ``` If you're using Laravel, and you don't find the `REDIS_HOST` variable in your `.env` file. Go to the database configuration file `config/database.php` and replace the default `127.0.0.1` IP with `redis` for Redis like this: ```php 'redis' => [ 'cluster' => false, 'default' => [ 'host' => 'redis', 'port' => 6379, 'database' => 0, ], ], ``` 3 - To enable Redis Caching and/or for Sessions Management. Also from the `.env` file set `CACHE_DRIVER` and `SESSION_DRIVER` to `redis` instead of the default `file`. ```env CACHE_DRIVER=redis SESSION_DRIVER=redis ``` 4 - Finally make sure you have the `predis/predis` package `(~1.0)` installed via Composer: ```bash composer require predis/predis:^1.0 ``` 5 - You can manually test it from Laravel with this code: ```php \Cache::store('redis')->put('Laradock', 'Awesome', 10); ```

## Install CodeIgniter To install CodeIgniter 3 on Laradock all you have to do is the following simple steps: 1 - Open the `docker-compose.yml` file. 2 - Change `CODEIGNITER=false` to `CODEIGNITER=true`. 3 - Re-build your PHP-FPM Container `docker-compose build php-fpm`.
## Install Symfony 1 - Open the `.env` file and set `WORKSPACE_INSTALL_SYMFONY` to `true`. 2 - Run `docker-compose build workspace`, after the step above. 3 - The NGINX sites include a default config file for your Symfony project `symfony.conf.example`, so edit it and make sure the `root` is pointing to your project `web` directory. 4 - Run `docker-compose restart` if the container was already running, before the step above. 5 - Visit `symfony.test`
## Miscellaneous
## Change the timezone To change the timezone for the `workspace` container, modify the `TZ` build argument in the Docker Compose file to one in the [TZ database](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones). For example, if I want the timezone to be `New York`: ```yml workspace: build: context: ./workspace args: - TZ=America/New_York ... ``` We also recommend [setting the timezone in Laravel](http://www.camroncade.com/managing-timezones-with-laravel/).
## Adding cron jobs You can add your cron jobs to `workspace/crontab/root` after the `php artisan` line. ``` * * * * * laradock /usr/bin/php /var/www/artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1 # Custom cron * * * * * root echo "Every Minute" > /var/log/cron.log 2>&1 ``` Make sure you [change the timezone](#Change-the-timezone) if you don't want to use the default (UTC). If you are on Windows, verify that the line endings for this file are LF only, otherwise the cron jobs will silently fail.
## Access workspace via ssh You can access the `workspace` container through `localhost:2222` by setting the `INSTALL_WORKSPACE_SSH` build argument to `true`. To change the default forwarded port for ssh: ```yml workspace: ports: - "2222:22" # Edit this line ... ``` Then login using: ```bash ssh -o PasswordAuthentication=no \ -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no \ -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null \ -p 2222 \ -i workspace/insecure_id_rsa \ laradock@localhost ``` To login as root, replace laradock@localhost with root@localhost.
## Change the (MySQL) Version By default **MySQL 8.0** is running. MySQL 8.0 is a development release. You may prefer to use the latest stable version, or an even older release. If you wish, you can change the MySQL image that is used. Open up your .env file and set the `MYSQL_VERSION` variable to the version you would like to install. ``` MYSQL_VERSION=5.7 ``` Available versions are: 5.5, 5.6, 5.7, 8.0, or latest. See https://store.docker.com/images/mysql for more information.
## MySQL access from host You can forward the MySQL/MariaDB port to your host by making sure these lines are added to the `mysql` or `mariadb` section of the `docker-compose.yml` or in your [environment specific Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/extends/) file. ``` ports: - "3306:3306" ```
## MySQL root access The default username and password for the root MySQL user are `root` and `root `. 1 - Enter the MySQL container: `docker-compose exec mysql bash`. 2 - Enter mysql: `mysql -uroot -proot` for non root access use `mysql -uhomestead -psecret`. 3 - See all users: `SELECT User FROM mysql.user;` 4 - Run any commands `show databases`, `show tables`, `select * from.....`.
## Create Multiple Databases (MySQL) Create `createdb.sql` from `mysql/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/createdb.sql.example` in `mysql/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/*` and add your SQL syntax as follow: ```sql CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `your_db_1` COLLATE 'utf8_general_ci' ; GRANT ALL ON `your_db_1`.* TO 'mysql_user'@'%' ; ```
## Change MySQL port Modify the `mysql/my.cnf` file to set your port number, `1234` is used as an example. ``` [mysqld] port=1234 ``` If you need MySQL access from your host, do not forget to change the internal port number (`"3306:3306"` -> `"3306:1234"`) in the docker-compose configuration file.
## Use custom Domain (instead of the Docker IP) Assuming your custom domain is `laravel.test` 1 - Open your `/etc/hosts` file and map your localhost address `127.0.0.1` to the `laravel.test` domain, by adding the following: ```bash 127.0.0.1 laravel.test ``` 2 - Open your browser and visit `{http://laravel.test}` Optionally you can define the server name in the NGINX configuration file, like this: ```conf server_name laravel.test; ```
## Enable Global Composer Build Install Enabling Global Composer Install during the build for the container allows you to get your composer requirements installed and available in the container after the build is done. 1 - Open the `.env` file 2 - Search for the `WORKSPACE_COMPOSER_GLOBAL_INSTALL` argument under the Workspace Container and set it to `true` 3 - Now add your dependencies to `workspace/composer.json` 4 - Re-build the Workspace Container `docker-compose build workspace`
## Install Prestissimo [Prestissimo](https://github.com/hirak/prestissimo) is a plugin for composer which enables parallel install functionality. 1 - Enable Running Global Composer Install during the Build: Click on this [Enable Global Composer Build Install](#Enable-Global-Composer-Build-Install) and do steps 1 and 2 only then continue here. 2 - Add prestissimo as requirement in Composer: a - Now open the `workspace/composer.json` file b - Add `"hirak/prestissimo": "^0.3"` as requirement c - Re-build the Workspace Container `docker-compose build workspace`
## Install Node + NVM To install NVM and NodeJS in the Workspace container 1 - Open the `.env` file 2 - Search for the `WORKSPACE_INSTALL_NODE` argument under the Workspace Container and set it to `true` 3 - Re-build the container `docker-compose build workspace`

## PHPStorm Debugging Guide Remote debug Laravel web and phpunit tests. [**Debugging Guide Here**](/guides/#PHPStorm-Debugging)
## Keep track of your Laradock changes 1. Fork the Laradock repository. 2. Use that fork as a submodule. 3. Commit all your changes to your fork. 4. Pull new stuff from the main repository from time to time.
## Upgrading Laradock Moving from Docker Toolbox (VirtualBox) to Docker Native (for Mac/Windows). Requires upgrading Laradock from v3.* to v4.*: 1. Stop the docker VM `docker-machine stop {default}` 2. Install Docker for [Mac](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/) or [Windows](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/). 3. Upgrade Laradock to `v4.*.*` (`git pull origin master`) 4. Use Laradock as you used to do: `docker-compose up -d nginx mysql`. **Note:** If you face any problem with the last step above: rebuild all your containers `docker-compose build --no-cache` "Warning Containers Data might be lost!"
## Improve speed on MacOS Docker on the Mac [is slow](https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues/77), at the time of writing. Especially for larger projects, this can be a problem. The problem is [older than March 2016](https://forums.docker.com/t/file-access-in-mounted-volumes-extremely-slow-cpu-bound/8076) - as it's a such a long-running issue, we're including it in the docs here. So since sharing code into Docker containers with osxfs have very poor performance compared to Linux. Likely there are some workarounds: ### Workaround A: using dinghy [Dinghy](https://github.com/codekitchen/dinghy) creates its own VM using docker-machine, it will not modify your existing docker-machine VMs. Quick Setup giude, (we recommend you check their docs) 1) `brew tap codekitchen/dinghy` 2) `brew install dinghy` 3) `dinghy create --provider virtualbox` (must have virtualbox installed, but they support other providers if you prefer) 4) after the above command is done it will display some env variables, copy them to the bash profile or zsh or.. (this will instruct docker to use the server running inside the VM) 5) `docker-compose up ...`
### Workaround B: using d4m-nfs You can use the d4m-nfs solution in 2 ways, the first is by using the built-in Laradock integration, and the second is using the tool separately. Below is show case of both methods: ### B.1: using the built in d4m-nfs integration In simple terms, docker-sync creates a docker container with a copy of all the application files that can be accessed very quickly from the other containers. On the other hand, docker-sync runs a process on the host machine that continuously tracks and updates files changes from the host to this intermediate container. Out of the box, it comes pre-configured for OS X, but using it on Windows is very easy to set-up by modifying the `DOCKER_SYNC_STRATEGY` on the `.env` #### Usage Laradock comes with `sync.sh`, an optional bash script, that automates installing, running and stopping docker-sync. Note that to run the bash script you may need to change the permissions `chmod 755 sync.sh` 1) Configure your Laradock environment as you would normally do and test your application to make sure that your sites are running correctly. 2) Make sure to set `DOCKER_SYNC_STRATEGY` on the `.env`. Read the [syncing strategies](https://github.com/EugenMayer/docker-sync/wiki/8.-Strategies) for details. ``` # osx: 'native_osx' (default) # windows: 'unison' # linux: docker-sync not required DOCKER_SYNC_STRATEGY=native_osx ``` 3) set `APP_CODE_PATH_CONTAINER=/var/www` to `APP_CODE_PATH_CONTAINER=/var/www:nocopy` in the .env file 4) Install the docker-sync gem on the host-machine: ```bash ./sync.sh install ``` 5) Start docker-sync and the Laradock environment. Specify the services you want to run, as you would normally do with `docker-compose up` ```bash ./sync.sh up nginx mysql ``` Please note that the first time docker-sync runs, it will copy all the files to the intermediate container and that may take a very long time (15min+). 6) To stop the environment and docker-sync do: ```bash ./sync.sh down ``` #### Setting up Aliases (optional) You may create bash profile aliases to avoid having to remember and type these commands for everyday development. Add the following lines to your `~/.bash_profile`: ```bash alias devup="cd /PATH_TO_LARADOCK/laradock; ./sync.sh up nginx mysql" #add your services alias devbash="cd /PATH_TO_LARADOCK/laradock; ./sync.sh bash" alias devdown="cd /PATH_TO_LARADOCK/laradock; ./sync.sh down" ``` Now from any location on your machine, you can simply run `devup`, `devbash` and `devdown`. #### Additional Commands Opening bash on the workspace container (to run artisan for example): ```bash ./sync.sh bash ``` Manually triggering the synchronization of the files: ```bash ./sync.sh sync ``` Removing and cleaning up the files and the docker-sync container. Use only if you want to rebuild or remove docker-sync completely. The files on the host will be kept untouched. ```bash ./sync.sh clean ``` #### Additional Notes - You may run laradock with or without docker-sync at any time using with the same `.env` and `docker-compose.yml`, because the configuration is overridden automatically when docker-sync is used. - You may inspect the `sync.sh` script to learn each of the commands and even add custom ones. - If a container cannot access the files on docker-sync, you may need to set a user on the Dockerfile of that container with an id of 1000 (this is the UID that nginx and php-fpm have configured on laradock). Alternatively, you may change the permissions to 777, but this is **not** recommended. Visit the [docker-sync documentation](https://github.com/EugenMayer/docker-sync/wiki) for more details.
### B.2: using the d4m-nfs tool [D4m-nfs](https://github.com/IFSight/d4m-nfs) automatically mount NFS volume instead of osxfs one. 1) Update the Docker [File Sharing] preferences: Click on the Docker Icon > Preferences > (remove everything form the list except `/tmp`). 2) Restart Docker. 3) Clone the [d4m-nfs](https://github.com/IFSight/d4m-nfs) repository to your `home` directory. ```bash git clone https://github.com/IFSight/d4m-nfs ~/d4m-nfs ``` 4) Create (or edit) the file `~/d4m-nfs/etc/d4m-nfs-mounts.txt`, and write the following configuration in it: ```txt /Users:/Users ``` 5) Create (or edit) the file `/etc/exports`, make sure it exists and is empty. (There may be collisions if you come from Vagrant or if you already executed the `d4m-nfs.sh` script before). 6) Run the `d4m-nfs.sh` script (might need Sudo): ```bash ~/d4m-nfs/d4m-nfs.sh ``` That's it! Run your containers.. Example: ```bash docker-compose up ... ``` *Note: If you faced any errors, try restarting Docker, and make sure you have no spaces in the `d4m-nfs-mounts.txt` file, and your `/etc/exports` file is clear.*
## Common Problems *Here's a list of the common problems you might face, and the possible solutions.*
## I see a blank (white) page instead of the Laravel 'Welcome' page! Run the following command from the Laravel root directory: ```bash sudo chmod -R 777 storage bootstrap/cache ```
## I see "Welcome to nginx" instead of the Laravel App! Use `http://127.0.0.1` instead of `http://localhost` in your browser.
## I see an error message containing `address already in use` or `port is already allocated` Make sure the ports for the services that you are trying to run (22, 80, 443, 3306, etc.) are not being used already by other programs on the host, such as a built in `apache`/`httpd` service or other development tools you have installed.
## I get NGINX error 404 Not Found on Windows. 1. Go to docker Settings on your Windows machine. 2. Click on the `Shared Drives` tab and check the drive that contains your project files. 3. Enter your windows username and password. 4. Go to the `reset` tab and click restart docker.
## The time in my services does not match the current time 1. Make sure you've [changed the timezone](#Change-the-timezone). 2. Stop and rebuild the containers (`docker-compose up -d --build `)
## I get MySQL connection refused This error sometimes happens because your Laravel application isn't running on the container localhost IP (Which is 127.0.0.1). Steps to fix it: * Option A 1. Check your running Laravel application IP by dumping `Request::ip()` variable using `dd(Request::ip())` anywhere on your application. The result is the IP of your Laravel container. 2. Change the `DB_HOST` variable on env with the IP that you received from previous step. * Option B 1. Change the `DB_HOST` value to the same name as the MySQL docker container. The Laradock docker-compose file currently has this as `mysql` ## I get stuck when building nginx on `fetch http://mirrors.aliyun.com/alpine/v3.5/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz` As stated on [#749](https://github.com/laradock/laradock/issues/749#issuecomment-419652646), Already fixed，just set `CHANGE_SOURCE` to false. ## Custom composer repo packagist url and npm registry url In China, the origin source of composer and npm is very slow. You can add `WORKSPACE_NPM_REGISTRY` and `WORKSPACE_COMPOSER_REPO_PACKAGIST` config in `.env` to use your custom source. Example: ```bash WORKSPACE_NPM_REGISTRY=https://registry.npm.taobao.org WORKSPACE_COMPOSER_REPO_PACKAGIST=https://packagist.phpcomposer.com ```
## I get `Module build failed: Error: write EPIPE` while compiling react application When you run `npm build` or `yarn dev` building a react application using webpack with elixir you may receive a `Error: write EPIPE` while processing .jpg images. This is caused of an outdated library for processing **.jpg files** in ubuntu 16.04. To fix the problem you can follow those steps 1 - Open the `.env`. 2 - Search for `WORKSPACE_INSTALL_LIBPNG` or add the key if missing. 3 - Set the value to true: ```dotenv WORKSPACE_INSTALL_LIBPNG=true ``` 4 - Finally rebuild the workspace image ```bash docker-compose build workspace ```
