Why might Collabora CODE docker image not be responding to HTTP(S)?

Hey Hey,

Iā€™m having some problems getting the Collabora docker image to run. First time poster here, any help that can point me in the right direction is appreciated.

Iā€™m trying to get the Collabora docker image set up.

Docs Iā€™ve been following: Nextcloud Office - Self-hosted online office suite also taking in https://www.collaboraoffice.com/code/docker/

Before setting up the reverse proxy, I wanted to prove the docker image was serving content:

root@srv-4qw44:~# curl -k https://localhost:9980
curl: (35) OpenSSL SSL_connect: SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL in connection to localhost:9980

From inside the docker image:
root@5b5dec6105cd:/# curl 127.0.0.1:9980
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 9980: Connection refused

What Iā€™m seeing is that both from inside and outside the container are failing requests of HTTP or HTTPS on port 9980.

Iā€™m expecting to see ā€œOKā€ or at least some random HTML.

I am trying to start the docker image with:
docker run -t -d -p 127.0.0.1:9980:9980 -e "domain=tim\\.example\\.co\\.uk" -e "username=admin" -e "password=Test12345" --cap-add MKNOD --restart always collabora/code

docker logs gives me https://pastebin.com/raw/iDyFWkgP

root@srv-4qw44:~# cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=18.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=bionic
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION=ā€œUbuntu 18.04.2 LTSā€

root@srv-4qw44:~# docker -v
Docker version 18.09.6, build 481bc77

Iā€™m happy to offer more information - any thoughts or suggestions would be very welcome!

Iā€™ve not fixed it, but Iā€™ve worked around it by using different versions:

root@srv-yce6b:~# cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=16.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=xenial
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION=ā€œUbuntu 16.04.6 LTSā€
root@srv-yce6b:~# docker -v
Docker version 18.09.2, build 6247962

did you try curl https://127.0.0.1:9980 --insecure inside the container?
or docker exec <your-collabora-container-id> curl https://127.0.0.1:9980 --insecure outside the container.

I did.

They got ā€œconnection refusedā€

Iā€™ve deleted that server and container now - my suspicion is that those versions donā€™t play nicely together.

Thanks for the rapid response @Reiner_Nippes - I appreciate it!
