Unable to run image

[olegmeister]

Hi, I am running this command verbatim:

docker run -d -p 8083:8083 -v recorder_store:/store -e OTR_HOST=mqtt_broker owntracks/recorder

But all it does is print a long hex string and nothing starts. Checking with "docker ps" doesn't list anything. Any advice?

can you remove the image and start over? (docker images; docker rmi)

[olegmeister]

Thanks. I didn't understand I needed to install an mqtt service first. I installed and was able to test it from two terminal windows but the image still cannot connect to it, fails with "connecting to MQTT on: as clientID ot-recorder- without TLS" Unable to connect (15) [Lookeup error.]: unknown reason.

A complete end-2-end example of how to start the mqtt broker and how to start the container would help. I get all sorts of errors.

@olegmeister have you meanwhile succeeded?

[olegmeister]

No, I have not :( Thanks for reaching out. I'll try it again this weekend.
