Installation and start seems to be okay, but no access to web

[Peter-Ries]

Hi, thanks for your scripts. I could so start off to test-run seafile in my LAN on my old BananaPi.

I followed your instructions carefully and made changes to .env and seafile.noswag.conf as mentioned here: https://github.com/ChatDeBlofeld/seafile-arm-docker/issues/11#issuecomment-1416703040

Starting up the container gives me no errors, no logs, but my browser calling http://192.168.178.10 times out after minutes...

.env is

### Compose parameters

# 0: SQLite | 1: MariaDB | 2: MySQL
DBMS=0
NOSWAG=1

# Port on which the noswag nginx container is listening
# You don't have to bother about this if you use the swag version
NOSWAG_PORT=80

# Full path of the Seafile image
SEAFILE_IMAGE=franchetti/seafile-arm

### Run parameters

PUID=1000
PGID=1000
TZ=Europe/Berlin

### Init parameters

HOST=192.168.178.10
# Leave empty for 80/443
PORT=

SEAFILE_ADMIN_EMAIL=xxxxxxx@xxxxx.com
SEAFILE_ADMIN_PASSWORD=seafile_admin
USE_HTTPS=0

# You don't have to bother about this if you use SQLite
MYSQL_HOST=db
MYSQL_USER_PASSWD=secret
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWD=secret

### Volume parameters

SEAFILE_CONF_DIR=./seafile/conf
SEAFILE_LOGS_DIR=./seafile/logs
SEAFILE_DATA_DIR=./seafile/seafile-data
SEAFILE_SEAHUB_DIR=./seafile/seahub-data

# SQLite/MariaDB/MySQL data dir
DATABASE_DIR=./db

# You don't have to bother about this if you use the noswag version
SWAG_DIR=./swag

and seafile.noswag.conf starts with this

log_format seafileformat '$http_x_forwarded_for $remote_addr [$time_local] "$request" $status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" "$http_user_agent" $upstream_response_time';

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name 192.168.178.10; # <-- Hostname of your server. Then access seahub at http://YourHostname

    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
...

starting docker without -d to see anything at all returns this:

docker stats show reverse_proxy_1 and seafile_1 running

I'm clueless where to start analyzing without errors or logs. Do you have any ideas?

Thx!!

Hi, this is indeed confusing. Just tried your config and it works fine.

What I can think of is an aggressive https redirection from your browser, shouldn't be the default though (at least for what I can see on Firefox and Chromium), but maybe you have some extension like https everywhere that could interfere?

Then come the stupid questions, but is the server reachable (I guess it should since you've probably opened a ssh connection)? Any firewall or something? Sorry but I can't help much more, everything seems absolutely normal to me...

[Peter-Ries]

Thanks for your reply. I just tried directly from the box with "lxny http://localhost:80"... No luck, no log. If at least some log would tell me what's happening...

It's a fresh instal of Armbian (debian bookwork) firewall is not in place.

If I find a solution I'll post it here.
