I’ve tried to install the latest Mattermost team version on my DS218+ Synology using this tutorial: Redirect.
It all works well until the “docker-compose build” command, where I get the following exit:
ERROR: Service 'app' failed to build: The command '/bin/sh -c mkdir -p /mattermost/data /mattermost/plugins /mattermost/client/plugins && if [ ! -z "$MM_BINARY" ]; then curl $MM_BINARY | tar -xvz ; elif [ "$edition" = "team" ] ; then curl https://releases.mattermost.com/$MM_VERSION/mattermost-team-$MM_VERSION-linux-amd64.tar.gz | tar -xvz ; else curl https://releases.mattermost.com/$MM_VERSION/mattermost-$MM_VERSION-linux-amd64.tar.gz | tar -xvz ; fi && cp /mattermost/config/config.json /config.json.save && rm -rf /mattermost/config/config.json && addgroup -g ${PGID} mattermost && adduser -D -u ${PUID} -G mattermost -h /mattermost -D mattermost && chown -R mattermost:mattermost /mattermost /config.json.save /mattermost/plugins /mattermost/client/plugins' returned a non-zero code: 1
I’ve tried to google and search the forum and ask some avid linux friends but to no avail. I’ve heard that it is generally possible to install mattermost-server on synology so can anybody point out the solution for my problem?
I don’t know if it is possible to use Docker on Synology. But if you can, I guess you should be able to deploy Mattermost
Do you have a more detailed log error ? You should have a long log output during the build, and a more precise message should be present in it. The one you paste just tell that one command during the build failed.
thanks for the reply and sorry for me not answering so long.
I’ve tried everything I could but couldn’t make it run. I didn’t lookup further logs so can’t say I’ve found any more useful information.
My solution for the whole problem was basically to conduct a workaround through installing the virtual machine manager and installing additional 8GB of Ram to make it work.
I have installed mattermost on the ubuntu VM successfully and didn’t go back to check whether the RAM (had only the pre-installed 2GB) may have been the issue with the docker-compose command but it could be. Couldn’t make any VM run on the 2GB of rum while it runs very smoothly now with 10GB!
I replaced the variables with the hard coded values from the ARG declaration. I don’t know what causes the error, perhaps an old Docker version on the Synology (17.05). Either way - by replacing with static values I got it running.
Thank you @vktr, it works. I edited the file “Dockerfile” from “app” folder created by installation as you suggested.
Another problem I had with connecting the database. I stopped the container and I added manual ports (ex. 5433 external and 5432 internal, then I changed the values in docker compose file.
I wonder if anybody tried to link mysql version of mattermost with internal mariaDB. I couldn’t do it. The postgres version is fine, consume less memory.
