Multiple domains Collabora

Hi All,

Iā€™ve seen several topics to use collabora and multiple domains, but I still canā€™t find the right script. Can somebody explain which command I need to use to add several domains to collabora? I have tried several options, like below command:

sudo docker run -t -d -p 127.0.0.1:9980:9980 -e ā€˜domain=1\.domain\.com|domain=2\.domain.comā€™ --restart always --cap-add MKNOD collabora/code

Many thanks!

What works for me:

docker run -t -d -p 127.0.0.1:9980:9980 -e 'domain=nc\\.domain1\\.com\|nc\\.domain2\\.com\|nc\\.domain3\\.com' --restart always --cap-add MKNOD collabora/code

You have to escape the dots in the domain names with two backslashes.

I know itā€™s an old thread, but it fits here best: for unknown reasons this solution has stopped working at the latest CODE docker image (COOLWSD 21.11.3.4). I have searched for a while, but did not find a solution. At the moment I have the impression it only works with the first domain that uses the instance after reboot. Does anybody maybe have a hint?

Hi @tim.s

This is working for me with two seperate Nextcloud instancesā€¦

docker run --name collabora -t -d -p 127.0.0.1:9980:9980 \
 -e 'domain=cloud01\\.domain\\.tld' \
 -e 'domain=cloud02\\.domain\\.tld' \
 -e 'dictionaries=de_CH' \
 -e 'username=adminuser' \ 
 -e 'password=supers3cr3tpa$$w0rd \
 --restart always --cap-add MKNOD collabora/code

@bb77: Tried your suggestion and splitting the domains up in individual arguments, but unfortunately that didnā€™t help either. It led to the situation that only the last one worked. When combining it as the years before, the first domain works.
Itā€™s weird, because it just stopped working after having run smoothly for two years or so.

Update: It appears that Collabora configuration has changed in the latest releases, so @bb77 's solution will probably also fail soon. I realised when I checked the docker logs:

-e ERR: Use of domain variable is not supported. First host/domain who tries to connect to COOL is always allowed.
To allow multiple host and its aliases use something like this and pass it as env variable:
aliasgroup1=https://domain1:443,https://its-alias|its-second-alias:443 
aliasgroup2=https://domain2:443,https://its-alias:443 
For more info: https://sdk.collaboraonline.com/docs/installation/CODE_Docker_image.html

The linked article confused me a bit, and I did not get it running. Then I discovered that the mentioned configuration apparently will only be available in the upcoming docker release (https://forum.collaboraonline.com/t/fixing-code-multihost-configuration/1001/8)

For the moment one has to change it inside the docker file. I managed to get it running again with the description mentioned here: https://forum.collaboraonline.com/t/21-11-3-4-1-problem-with-multiple-domains/991/3

Thought this may be helpful to others as well.

This will break a lot of instances soon (it already started) and should in my opinion be addressed in sticky post or so. Information is now also available under:
https://sdk.collaboraonline.com/docs/installation/CODE_Docker_image.html

@tim.s : youā€™ve had the link already in the error log, just saw it now.

Hello!
We created an easy setup script for Debian 11 which can install Nextcloud High performance backend, Signaling & Collabora Office (with MS fonts) with Multi Domain Support.
