Docker Installation: What ar the username/password for the 2 URLs and the Container/Docker_machine?

[gmoore777]

Hi,

(I am brand new to using Docker, and a beginner user of Edge...)

Starting Friday, January 11, 2019, I followed the instructions here,

https://edge.readthedocs.io/en/2.x/installation.html#edge-docker-image

which then refers to:

https://hub.docker.com/r/bioedge/edge_dev

I made it all the way to "Default credential: EDGE user ad...@my.edge/admin"

and I am able to Browse, using Chrome from my home computer, to both of these URLs

which refer to a Linux machine I have out in cyperspace:

http://<my IP address>:80/userManagement
http://<my IP address>:80                       

1.) I don't know what to use for the username/password for either URLs.

I did use "ad...@my.edge" and "admin" but that failed,

and additionally, the user management page complains:

     Password must be at least 8 characters long

2.)

what is the significance of the `docker` command parameter of "bioedge/edge_dev"?

3A.)

How does one log into the Docker machine, using `ssh`?

I ran this:

$ docker-machine ssh machinename
  Command 'docker-machine' not found, but can be installed with:
  sudo snap install docker

$

Then after running `sudo snap install docker`, I ran:

$ sudo docker-machine ls
NAME   ACTIVE   DRIVER   STATE   URL   SWARM   DOCKER   ERRORS  <-- no machines available??
$

So there is no Docker machine available, and presumable the name would be "edge" from the original `docker` flag of: "--name edge ".

(but the Docker machine must be running, cause I am able to connect to the above URLs via a Chrome browser.)

3B.)

Similarly, this does not work either:

$ sudo docker exec edge tail /var/log/httpd/access_log
Error: No such container: edge
$

4.)

I then tried regular SSH:

$ ssh -l ad...@my.edge  172.17.0.2 -Y

SSH does try to connect, but what should I use for a username/password?

Using the username/password of "ad...@my.edge" and "admin", does not work.

Thank you

Hi,

1.)

I figured out how to successfully `ssh` into the container as the "edge" user.

(although I read how that is frowned upon in regards to Docker containers.)

2A.)

I also undid this command:

  sudo snap install docker

with this command:

  sudo snap remove docker

  sudo reboot

which was definitely conflicting with Docker commands.

I was duped into running the above to get the "docker-machine" software which

is not applicable with this set up.

2B.)

These commands work better now:

$ sudo docker images
REPOSITORY          TAG                 IMAGE ID            CREATED             SIZE
bioedge/edge_dev    latest              ed51e0f24cea        5 weeks ago         16.7GB
$

$ sudo docker ps
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE               COMMAND             CREATED             STATUS              PORTS                                                                  NAMES
b5b9f849ac23        bioedge/edge_dev    "/usr/sbin/init"    24 seconds ago      Up 23 seconds       22/tcp, 25/tcp, 0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp, 3306/tcp, 0.0.0.0:8080->8080/tcp   edge
$

3.)

I now know that "bioedge/edge_dev", part of the `docker run` command, is

just the name of our Docker image, that has been registered somewhere...




4.)

But I still don't know what to use for the username/password for either URLs:

http://<my IP address>:80/userManagement
http://<my IP address>:80                       

I did use "ad...@my.edge" and "admin" but that failed,

and additionally, the user management page complains:

     Password must be at least 8 characters long

I can't find any mention of what the username/password is to use the Edge product other than what I used above?

Help.

The short story, is I'm all set for now.

----------------------

The long story is:

1.)

The username/password that I found in sys.properties, does work now.

I did 2 things majorly wrong:

2.)

I incorrectly edited the volume entries on the `docker run` command:

    -v /path/to/mysql:/var/lib/mysql \
    -v /path/to/database:/home/bee016guest/Edge/database \
    -v /path/to/EDGE_output:/home/bee016guest/Edge/EDGE_output \
    -v /path/to/EDGE_input:/home/bee016guest/Edge/EDGE_input \
    -v /path/to/EDGE_report:/home/bee016guest/Edge/EDGE_report \

I thought I was supposed to edit the right hand side of the colon. That was wrong.

So then I did it correctly as follows, by editing the value on the left side of the colon:

    -v /home/bee016guest/Edge/mysql:/var/lib/mysql \
    -v /home/bee016guest/Edge/database:/home/edge/database \
    -v /home/bee016guest/Edge/EDGE_output:/home/edge/EDGE_output \
    -v /home/bee016guest/Edge/EDGE_input:/home/edge/EDGE_input \
    -v /home/bee016guest/Edge/EDGE_report:/home/edge/EDGE_report \

3.)

Next problem is that the mysql (MariaDB) was not starting up cause of file ownership/permissions problems:

$ sudo docker exec edge systemctl status mariadb.service
... mariadb.service failed.

Which led me to do this:

$ sudo docker exec -it edge /bin/bash

# tail /var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log

where I saw:

190116 16:10:11 [Warning] Can't create test file /var/lib/mysql/d329d854093d.lower-test
...
190116 16:10:11  InnoDB: Operating system error number 13 in a file operation.
InnoDB: The error means mysqld does not have the access rights to
InnoDB: the directory.
InnoDB: File name ./ibdata1
InnoDB: File operation call: 'open'.

I then observed the ID value in /etc/passwd and /etc/group for the "mysql" user/group.

On my host machine, I physically added this line to /etc/passwd:

    mysql:x:27:27:MariaDB Server:/var/lib/mysql:/sbin/nologin

I could not add this line to /etc/group:

    mysql:x:27:
As "27" was already used.

Then I changed the owner, but not the group, to all the files belonging to mysql on my host machine:

  $ sudo chown -R mysql:      /home/bee016guest/Edge/mysql

I then stopped, destroyed and re-created the Docker container:

$ sudo docker stop edge
$ sudo docker rm edge
$ sudo docer run ...

All is well... now to start using Edge,....

P.S.: Instead of editing the /etc/passwd and /etc/group files and doing a `chown`, I suppose I could have instead

just changed the permissions by doing:

 $  sudo chmod -R 777 /home/bee016guest/Edge/mysql
