docker-compose : mongo not running

[slfhstr]

Used the linked docker-compose.yml with additions for traefik. App page https://pisignage.domain.tld returns 404 docker logs show :

How do I get mongo started in the container ?

Hi @slfhstr

There is a chance that the $PWD might be causing issues. Can you remove the $PWD and check if you see MongoDB Volumes?

[slfhstr]

Thank you. I added the $PWD as it also didn't start without. Removing the $PWD gives the following in docker logs :

pisignage-server restarts every 15 seconds so there is no time to edit config/env/development.js No volumes created in working directory, and don't see them elsewhere on system.

[slfhstr]

Is it significant that no ports are shown for pisignage-server when running docker ps -a ?

Also I notice that docker-compose up -d shows another network is auto-created (it's not specified in docker-compose) :

Creating network "pisignage_default" with the default driver
Creating pisignage_mongo_1 ... done
Creating pisignage_pisignage-server_1 ... done

Also volumes are only created when I add $PWD or ./ Then mongo volumes are owned by a different user.

I realised that in docker-compose.yml the mongo service did not have same network assigned. I added the traefik network to that service. The pisignage-server service stays up 🍾 And no errors in docker logs about mongo not running. But visiting pisignage.domain.tld still produces 404. Changing config/env/development.js has no effect - still 404. No errors shown in browser console
