npm-install fails at line 250: rc-service openresty start

[myxal]

Script nginx-proxy-manager

• setup.sh and also npm-install.sh

Describe the bug Setup fails at the step where openresty is launched, reporting that config test failed:

[error] Starting services /tmp/npm_install.sh: line 250: rc-service openresty start 14 configuration file /usr/local/openresty/nginx/conf/nginx.conf test failed openresty failed to start

System info:

• Proxmox Version: 7.1.10
• Alpine Version: 3.15-default_20211202

Additional context

• Set up the lxc container myself, and added /data folder (migrated from an NPM setup on docker, which I wasn't happy with) before installation
• container has 2 GB of disk space and 512 MiB RAM allocated - I hope that's enough

nginx.conf.txt

/data folder migrated from an NPM setup on docker

This was the cause, the installation succeeded when the migrated folder was renamed and the installer was free to recreate the folder structure.

So, as of the current script version, the configurations are not portable between the (upstream) docker variant and this - I think the root cause is that in this setup, nginx configuration resides under /usr/local/openresty/nginx, whereas in the upstream build, it's also moved under /data/.

Did you manage to perform the install/update in the end?

[myxal]

Yes, but only because I performed a clean installation. My configuration in the container was not huge and didn't warrant me manually editing the files to make the "update" path to finish successfully.

I'm not sure how desirable it is for you/this project, but I think being able to import config from the docker container, which I consider "upstream" version of NPM, would be helpful.

Couldn't manage to do a clean install with Alpine, always failed at openresty. Installation into Debian worked for me.
