Describe the Scenario

I have installed Bookstack under ubuntu and docker compose. I have configured everything so far. When I now call up the website, I always land on this example website: https://bookstack.example.com/login. Apache2 does not give any errors. I have adapted 000-default.conf with the path of my installation. In the docker-compose.yml I have specified the app url, tried once with https:/xxx.xx and once with the IP: 192.... Unfortunately both without success I always end up on the example page of Bookstack when I call up the homepage, does anyone have an idea? I have rented an Ubuntu server and have installed the latest Ubunut version and run Plesk on it.

Exact BookStack Version

newest from homepage

Hi @Gumblfreak-R,

• Please ensure the APP_URL is set exactly to the base URL you'd expect to access BookStack on.
  • Ensure you're re-creating the containers (compose down & up) rather than just restarting after changing this.
• I don't understand how Apache is used with the shown docker setup here, they don't look connected at all. The apache looks set-up for a sub-path setup leading to a on-instance install, whereas you've got a docker-based install for which I'd expect to see a proxy-based setup.
  • Can you explain the expected URL format, and all the parts you have in play?
    • Do you intend to use a sub-path?
    • Is apache currently leading requests to the docker setup somehow? If so, how?
    • Are you using a port number in the URL when accessing it? If so, do you intend to?

I have an Ubuntu server incl. Plesk installation. I have installed Docker and Bookstack as follows:
curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sudo sh
First create the .yml file in your desired installation path
as an example the path would be /docker/bookstack
then open the compose file here with vi:
vi docker-compose.yml

Copy the content below and adapt it to your bookstack environment. Be sure to replace the example passwords!

services:
bookstack:
image: lscr.io/linuxserver/bookstack
container_name: bookstack
environment:
- PUID=1000
- PGID=1000
- APP_URL=https://bookstack.example.com
- DB_HOST=bookstack_db
- DB_PORT=3306
- DB_USER=bookstack
- DB_PASS=
- DB_DATABASE=bookstackapp
volumes:
- ./bookstack_app_data:/config
ports:
- 6875:80
restart: unless-stopped
depends_on:
- bookstack_db
bookstack_db:
image: lscr.io/linuxserver/mariadb
container_name: bookstack_db
environment:
- PUID=1000
- PGID=1000
- MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=
- TZ=Europe/Berlin
- MYSQL_DATABASE=bookstackapp
- MYSQL_USER=bookstack
- MYSQL_PASSWORD=
volumes:
- ./bookstack_db_data:/config
restart: unless-stopped
Now exit the editor with :wq!
Then start your Bookstack Docker environment with
docker compose up -d
You can use docker ps to check whether your Docker environment is running.
Your URL is then https://bookstack.example.com:6875 or https://192.168.178.XX:6875

i changed the url at the composer.yml with my url. but i always land on the example page...
by apache2 configs i have entered this one:
<VirtualHost *:80>

...

# BookStack Configuration
Alias "/bookstack" "/var/www/bookstack/public"

<Directory "/var/www/bookstack/public">
  Options FollowSymlinks
  AllowOverride None
  Require all granted

  RewriteEngine On
  # Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]

  # Handle Front Controller...
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</Directory>


<Directory "/var/www/bookstack">
  AllowOverride None
  Require all denied
</Directory>
# End BookStack Configuration

...

here i have updated my path and then saved

@Gumblfreak-R That apache setup appears in no way linked to the docker setup? Do you expect it to be?
Do you have a domain name you're using to access BookStack? Or an IP address?

[Gumblfreak-R]

i have a domain name. but i also tried it with the ip adress
