Stuck at login screen - Githubissues

mapa17 commented 2 years ago

Hello,

I am running the latest akaunting docker image using docker-compose in combination with an nginx reverse proxy mapping from

akaunting.MYDOMAIN.COM ---> akaunitng.MYDOMAIN.COM:9002

because I have multiple docker applications running don't the same host.

I can reach the login screen, but using the credentials I set in env/run.env, the login button is showing its animation but not progressing.

Any ideas whats going on, or how to debug it? thx!

I found the issue after checking the java script console of my web browser. Akaunting required https to be enabled int he host, and my nginx was not configured with a self signed SSL certificate in reverse proxy mode.

So the solution was to

Create a self signed certificate
Use the certificate and enable an SSL reverse proxy with nginx

Things I found useful

Add a reverse proxy with caddy to use https https://www.poorna.dev/post/Get-Started-with-Akaunting-and-Docker-with-HTTPS/

And if you are running it locally your domain will probably not be available. Following the guid above you can also set the tls to self signed certifciates. In docker-compose you will need to map the ssl certificate and then read that on the Caddyfile.

# docker-compose.json
    volumes:
      - ./Caddyfile:/etc/caddy/Caddyfile
      - ./ssl:/etc/caddy/ssl

# caddyfile
accounting.yourdomain.com {
    encode gzip
    reverse_proxy akaunting:80

    tls /etc/caddy/ssl/self-signed.pem /etc/caddy/ssl/self-signed-key.pem
}
