Experimenting with Docker

Hello everyone,

I have seen on the forum that most users use docker to use N8N and have a much leaner system. I have installed Win11 Pro Docker Desktop on my PC and downloaded the n8nio/n8n:latest container so that I can start testing and see if it may be useful to study docker.

After downloading the container and starting it the log window tells me that N8N is accessible by opening localhost:5678 however if I try I get the classic browser error saying page not found.

Is there any particular configuration I need to do?

Thanks

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: lates
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main): default
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): Docker desktop
  • Operating system: Windows 11 Pro + Docker Desktop

Hi @chr4ash

Have you set up the port in your docker? Which commands did you run to set up the container? Did you set a custom URL variable?
