    opencms:
        image: alkacon/opencms-docker:15.0
        container_name: opencms
        init: true
        restart: always
        ports:
            - "8081:8080"
        volumes:
            - ./opencms-docker-webapps:/usr/local/tomcat/webapps
        command: ["/root/wait-for.sh", "mysql:3306", "-t", "30", "--", "/root/opencms-run.sh"]
        environment:
            - "DB_PASSWD=Qwerty1234!"
            - "DB_HOST=XXXXXXXXXX.eu-west-2.rds.amazonaws.com"
            - "DB_USER=admin"
            - "DB_NAME=opencms"
            - "DEBUG=true"

anyone can help me?? Thanks

Hi, in "command" you wait for the mysql service that you do not start anymore. Try command: ["/root/opencms-run.sh"] only. Nevertheless, I'm not sure if the configurable part of the DB connection options is enough to connect successfully or if more adjustments, not configurable via environment variables are necessary. The image as is is designed to connect to MariaDB. But you'll see. Best, Daniel.

Hi!,

I run it only with command: ["/root/opencms-run.sh"] but i get the following error: i saw the next issue but i don´t find the solution Use external database #12

If i change the RDS connection from mysql to mariadb, it could be possible to fix the error?

I think you are doing a fresh installation, are you? If yes, have you removed all content of your ./opencms-docker-webapps folder before you re-tested?
