Error while setting up BigBlueButton 2.7 Docker: "unable to stat C, error: stat C: no such file or directory #305

I cloned the BigBlueButton 2.7 Docker repository from GitHub (https://github.com/bigbluebutton/docker) and ran the command ./scripts/setup. During the setup process, I was prompted with some questions, which I answered. However, at the end of the setup, I encountered the following error:

2023/11/24 10:27:30 unable to stat C, error: stat C: no such file or directory

I have attempted to debug and resolve the issue, but I couldn't find a solution. It seems to be related to a file or directory named "C," but I am unsure about the cause and how to address it.

I am seeking guidance on resolving the "unable to stat C" error during the setup of BigBlueButton 2.7 Docker version. Any insights into the cause of the issue and potential solutions would be greatly appreciated.

thats strange! what operating system are you using? I somehow have the suspicion that you might be using WSL under Windows? at least on occurrence of a similar error was due to issues handling C:\ .

Hi Alangecker,

Thank you for your reply. As I'm a beginner, I don't have much knowledge about these things. The WSL point you mentioned helped me with the error I inquired about earlier. I was using Docker Desktop, and Docker was utilizing WSL. Even after disabling the WSL mode in Docker and attempting to use the hypervisor instead, it still didn't work for me.

Now, I'm using Ubuntu OS on a virtual machine, and it is downloading the images and starting the container. However, the issue I'm facing now is that I can't access the application. The browser returns 502 bad gateway error. I'm trying to access it on Firefox with the URL http://bigbluebutton.com/, where bigbluebutton.com is the domain name I used during the ./scripts/setup prompt. Any insights into this would be greatly appreciated.

Hey, just tried setting up BBB myself, and I get the 502 too. Cant figure out whats causing it tho :/ Using Ubuntu on a VPS.

Hi,

if you already have a VM it would be better to install it with the installation script and skip docker all together. If you have several layers of virtualization (BBB->docker->WSL) BBB is going to behave strangely. I would recommend first installing BBB the "normal" way. If you succeed then try it inside docker. Regarding your 502 error: do you have the right certificates? Did the docker installation generate some certificates for you? Do you have a FQDN?

Regards, J.

maybe this comment could help? https://github.com/bigbluebutton/docker/issues/259#issuecomment-1842682088

To verify your installation u can access the path /bigbluebutton/

response should be SUCCESS

a bad gateway under / is normal, because no demo is available since release x
