Hello

Thanks for your great work on docker-limesurvey.

Can you please provide a simple and working example or guide me on how to use your image?

I've created a new folder on my Windows WSL2 partition. In that empty folder, I've created a docker-compose.yml file, taking your file https://github.com/martialblog/docker-limesurvey/blob/master/docker-compose.example.yml

Then I run docker-compose up and Docker is download images and process the .yml file.

In your https://github.com/martialblog/docker-limesurvey#running-this-image-with-docker-compose paragraph, you're saying that we can then access to the http://localhost:8080/ URL but it isn't working neither http://127.0.0.1:8080/.

My browser is returning an error ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE. Same result for curl http://127.0.0.1:8080.

Is it possible to guide me? How can I run a simple LimeSurvey web application using your Docker image?

Many thanks!

Remark: My current need is to migrate from 3.22.6 to probably 5. Is it possible to refers to a 3.22.6 docker image? Thanks!

Hey there, thanks for the feedback.

I'm not too familiar with Windons and Docker on Windows, maybe the port-mapping works different on that system.

The docker-compose.yml file is really as simple as possible I think. Can you provide some logs maybe, so we can have a look at what the webserver says.

You can change the Dockerfile the docker-compose file uses by changing the line: context: 5.0/apache/

Thanks Martial.

Concerning Windows: I'm using Docker since a few months, there are no difference with Linux I mean processing the docker-compose.yml file will give the same result. For information too: I'm running the .yml file in a WSL2 (Windows Subsystem Linux) partition; it's not a true Linux but really, really near.

I'll try once more this morning and post here logs.

Thanks

Here are what I just made once more on my computer:

  1. I run docker system prune -a to make sure Docker images/containers/volumes/network are empty (just needed to make sure everyting is starting from scratch)
  2. Create an empty docker_ls foder
  3. Create a docker-compose.yml file it, copy of your https://github.com/martialblog/docker-limesurvey/blob/master/docker-compose.example.yml file
  4. On the prompt, I run docker-compose up -d to let Docker to download images and create things

Hope you can see what I'm doing incorrectly...

My goal is to be able to use your image martialblog/limesurvey:3.22.6_200219 to be able to create a DEV environment on my dev machine, getting back a LS database from a production site, do stuff and then start a migration to the latest version of LS. We've a few LS instances, I suspect versions are always different.

Many, many thanks for any help.

You can change the Dockerfile the docker-compose file uses by changing the line: context: 5.0/apache/

Yes I've see it and yesterday night, I've tried this on my computer and I got the LS interface (=> it's work) but... is it the good way to do? I mean, by using the docker-compose.yml file (and not the .example one), I'll recreate the image. The https://github.com/martialblog/docker-limesurvey/blob/master/3.0/apache/Dockerfile use a php:7.4-apache base image while I was expecting to see/put martialblog/limesurvey:3.22.6_200219. That docker-compose.yml file is the one you are using to build your images; the idea isn't (I think) to use that file and re-create the image when you already did and publish it on docker hub with the good tag.

I miss something / I'm doing something wrong somewhere I think.

Hey,

what I would do is, copy the docker-compose-example.yml to something like docker-compose-update-test.yml and adjust the LS version to 3.22.6_200219. This will pull the 3.22 Image from the DockerHub and you can start the app and import the databse.

If the 3.22 Image is not available anymore, you can clone the repo and checkout the git tag for this version and build the Docker Image.

From there you can start testing the update, it's best to consul the LS documentation to see what they recommend. You can then switch out the LS container with a newer version while keeping the DB container. I don't know if you can update from LS 3 directly to 5, but the documentation should tell you that.

Hello Martial

My apologies for the delay.

I was busy on "How to make it working" since last Thursday and then, I had to "catch up" without asking myself too many questions.

For that reason, I've reuse your docker-compose.yml file (and not the .example one) and your 3.0/apache/Dockerfile file too then I've add here and there my own rules since I need a customized LS instance (for instance with three plugins pre-installed and my own DB).

I've thus stop to search for how can I reuse your existing images (i.e. martialblog/limesurvey:3.22.6_200219) and rebuild it.

Many thanks for your time, answers and your investment to maintain this repo.
