I am tryng to install Wazuh on docker but it doesn't work even tho I followed the instructions and checked that the files are present : The docker is the windows desktop version whit a debian dev environements to run/install wazuh.

# ls

# cd config

How can I fix the issue ?

I'm having the same issue:

# docker-compose -f generate-indexer-certs.yml run --rm generator

The tool to create the certificates exists in the in Packages bucket

For some reason the certs.yml is a directory..

Hi, same issue here ! Anyone resolve this since August ?

[Katovitcom]

To solve, first search the cert.yml of single-node:

find / -name certs.yml | grep single-node Then, change the file generate-indexer-certs.yml

(in my case):

volumes:
    - /root/wazuh/wazuh-docker/single-node/config/certs.yml:/config/certs.yml

Hi I found a similar issue and is related what user is creating and running the wazuh docker compose commands, if is the root all runs good if not this errors start appearing related to cert permissions and folder permissions

The cert generation create some certs for root but in the docs there is no mention if root is needed advised etc, to make a clean install on a ubuntu for example, first go sudo su then go to root home folder, then clone the repo, generate the certs and compose up

I would suggest changing the cert generation to fully address this to allow other users or a docker rootless install, but adding this info in the current docs is good, and if any help needed just ping me

The documentation states:

Then enter into the single-node directory to execute all the commands described below within this directory.

The problem occurs when the command does not find the config file but generates it as a directory
