Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some guidance on a couple of Docker issues I’ve been struggling with.
Yesterday, I asked about how to bake credentials into a Docker image so they are pre-loaded. I have already tried using an entrypoint script (.sh), passing a .env file, and defining them in docker-compose.yml, but none of these methods seem to be working for my specific setup. Does anyone have a reliable tutorial or “best practice” guide for handling this?
Secondary Question:
I am planning to deploy this container to a headless Linux server (no GUI). Is it possible to deploy it smoothly in that environment? Currently, every time I start my container, it stops at a login screen/prompt. How can I bypass this or automate the login so the application starts immediately upon deployment?
Thanks in advance for the help!
What is the error message (if any)?
