Can't start container

[ghost]

Hello. I didn't change anything other than:

user@host> sed -i "s|ultrasecretkey|$(openssl rand -hex 32)|g" searxng/settings.yml

But it fails to run:

user@host> docker-compose up                                                                                                     /tmp/searxng-docker

Found this comment here, but I'm either doing something wrong or it just doesn't work for me.

I'm using artix linux with the latest updates, but I also tried running searxng-docker on garuga linux and the result is the same.

the 977 trick didn't help for me either

I guess it plays a role if you start docker with sudo or not

chmod o+w searxng helps though

This helped me get it up and running today: https://lemmy.world/post/2884841

Also, I have it running using my IP address locally and need to use http to connect instead of https since I didn't buy a hosting site.

On a related/unrelated, I set searxng as the default search w/i Chromium via 'manage search engines', but one quirk is that Chromium automatically removed the port reference in my address string and turned it into 'https' so I had to manually revert those two pieces before things worked.
