IMPORTANT
The following is a collection of important do's and don'ts you should be aware of when starting to use the Devilbox and Docker in general.
Table of Contents
- local
Starting
Do not run via sudo
or root
Do not start the Devilbox with sudo
or as root
user. If it complains about permissions when starting it with your normal system user, it is probably due to the fact, that your user is not in the docker
group.
Ensure you have read and done the following:
- Add user to
docker
group:prerequisites_docker_installation
- Synronize file permissions:
install_the_devilbox_set_uid_and_gid
Warning
If you start the Devilbox with sudo
or as root
user, it will most likely mess with your file permissions.
Starting, Stopping and Restarting
Whenever you want to stop the Devilbox, change configuration and start up again, do not forget to remove stopped container.
# Stop the Devilbox
host> docker-compose stop
# Remove stopped container
host> docker-compose rm
# Start the Devilbox
host> docker-compose up
start_the_devilbox_stop_and_restart
(why do docker-compose rm
?)
Backups
Ensure to do regular database backups! Better safe then sorry!
