Seems not found loolwsd.xml, I just use docker run -t -d -p 9980:9980 -e "extra_params=--o:ssl.enable=false" collabora/code

Did you modify /etc/loolwsd/loolwsd.xml externally? Originally the permission of this file is: -rw-r----- 1 lool lool 14374 Jan 28 17:58 loolwsd.xml

[rickywu]

@timar No, just pull the image and run it

Image changed running UID. I had the same permission problem because of https://github.com/CollaboraOnline/Docker-CODE/commit/770d55f7f8a6cfedc8231d53f570281be07d1ee5. Old uid was 105 and new one is 101. I had to chown manually my external docker volume.

Commit 770d55f seems to be buggy. I'm not using external volumes for my CODE container, and running it still fails. UID 101 in the container is assigned to a messagebus user, the lool user is actually 102.

The commit appears to be wrong, or at least incomplete.

This doesn't work:

$ docker cp romantic_meninsky:/etc/loolwsd/loolwsd.xml loolwsd.xml

As others previously mentioned the file ownership and permissions is transferred to the container and therefore leading to the "Permission denied" error messages

What I did was to cat the heavily edited external file into my Collabora container after starting it as described in the basic setup guide:

$ docker exec -i collabora sh -c 'cat > /etc/loolwsd/loolwsd.xml' < loolwsd.xml

This is creating additional overhead on my deployment routine since I'm using it for my personal Nextcloud instance and I was looking for an automated way to have both Collabora and Nextcloud containers up and running.

Right now this inconvenience looks like it's not worth investing the time to overcome.

HELP: I would like to use environment variables when launching the Collabora container to achieve the same level of customization but I cannot seem to find that anywhere.

If anyone has a full list of environment variables to use when starting up Collabora containers , please point me towards it.

Getting back to investigating why Collabora still won't work behind my Nginx reverse proxy :(
