Disabled SSL, still get error in log and it won't start up

Closed this issue · 2 comments

So I tried to disable everything that has with SSL to do, in order to make the proxy control the security, so I edited the docker-compose file as such:

environment:
      PRETTY_URLS: "1"
      HTTPS: "0"
      SSL: "0"
      HTTPS_REDIRECT: "0"
      SSL_REDIRECT: "0"
      LANG: "en-US"
      BASE_URL: "http://192.168.86.60"
      DB_TYPE: "sqlite"
      DB_NAME: "webtrees.sqlite"
      DB_PREFIX: "wt_"
      WT_USER: "username"
      WT_NAME: "Full Name"
      WT_PASS: "mybadpassword"
      WT_EMAIL: "me@example.com"

I also exposed port 8990 to internal port 80 as this port is taken by another service I run.

The problem is that the container still setting HTTPS according to the logs, and thus the app won't start up:

Oh, I see the problem, don't set the SSL environment variables at ALL. The setup script isn't very smart, it's just looking for any value. being set. Set your docker-compose.yml to this:

environment:
      PRETTY_URLS: "1"
      LANG: "en-US"
      BASE_URL: "http://192.168.86.60"
      DB_TYPE: "sqlite"
      DB_NAME: "webtrees.sqlite"
      DB_PREFIX: "wt_"
      WT_USER: "username"
      WT_NAME: "Full Name"
      WT_PASS: "mybadpassword"
      WT_EMAIL: "me@example.com"

Well, after also reading the documentation throroughly I see that it's more or less implicit that this is the way it works as well. Sorry for bothering you with this "issue"!
