Kiwi TCMS under Docker windows issues


Below is my configuration:

  • Docker version 18.09.2, build 6247962
  • Host OS: Win 10 Pro

I am evaluating this tool for my personal use. But the problem is that some of my standard port is already in use either by IIS/System on the host. I was able to get the kiwi docker image and also clone the GIT repo.

Since the standard ports are already in use, I changed the docker-compose.yml file as shown below:

ports:
        - 90:8080
        - 1443:8443

Now the docker container kiwi_web is up and running successfully on 1443 port. But it displays Internal Server Error when I visit the page. I guess this error is because more commands to be executed?

As per the documentation, now I am trying to execute the next command, which results in an error.

    $ winpty docker exec -it kiwi_web /Kiwi/manage.py migrate
OCI runtime exec failed: exec failed: container_linux.go:344: starting container process caused "exec: \"C:/Program Files/Git/Kiwi/manage.py\": stat C:/Program Files/Git/Kiwi/manag
e.py: no such file or directory": unknown

What should I do? Yes, I am executing this command from the cloned repository directory.

Are there better instructions to do this activity on Windows machines?

UPDATE: I managed to find the OIC problem issue. Below is the changed command:

$ winpty docker exec -it kiwi_web //bin//sh
sh-4.2$ ls

Looks like I managed to solve the problem.


Solution

  • Looks like this one https://github.com/kiwitcms/Kiwi/issues/231 and there isn't anything we can do about it. This is a cryptic error comming from your docker installation so your best bet is to google about it. We've seen this kind of error when trying to mount files instead of directories but there could be other things causing it.
