Install using Docker Compose

Use this information to quickly start up Content Services using Docker Compose.

Note: While Docker Compose is often used for production deployments, the Docker Compose file provided is recommended for development and test environments only. Customers are expected to adapt this file to their own requirements, if they intend to use Docker Compose to deploy a production environment.

To deploy Content Services using Docker Compose, download and install Docker, then follow the steps below. Make sure that you’ve reviewed the prerequisites before continuing.

  1. Download the docker-compose.yml file by accessing the Content Services Download Trial page, which will give you a 30-day license.

    If you already have a valid license file for Content Services 7.3, you can apply it directly to the running system. See Uploading a new license for more details.

    Note: Make sure that exposed ports are open on your host computer. Check the docker-compose.yml file to determine the exposed ports - refer to the host:container port definitions. You’ll see they include 5432, 8080, 8083 and others.

    Note: The Download Trial is usually updated for major.minor versions of Content Services. The latest published version on our website is labelled Version 7.3 - December 2022).

  2. Save the docker-compose.yml file in a local folder.

    For example, you can create a folder acs-trial.

  3. Change directory to the location of your docker-compose.yml file.

  4. Log in to Quay.io using your credentials:

     docker login quay.io

    Alfresco customers can request Quay.io credentials by logging a ticket with Alfresco Support. These credentials are required to pull private (Enterprise-only) Docker images from Quay.io.

  5. Deploy Content Services, including the repository, Share, Postgres database, Search Services, etc.:

     docker-compose up

    This downloads the images, fetches all the dependencies, creates each container, and then starts the system:

     ...
 Creating network "acs-trial_default" with the default driver
 Creating volume "acs-trial_shared-file-store-volume" with default driver
 Creating acs-trial_control-center_1     ... done
 Creating acs-trial_activemq_1           ... done
 Creating acs-trial_sync-service_1       ... done
 Creating acs-trial_solr6_1              ... done
 Creating acs-trial_digital-workspace_1  ... done
 Creating acs-trial_share_1              ... done
 Creating acs-trial_postgres_1           ... done
 Creating acs-trial_alfresco_1           ... done
 Creating acs-trial_shared-file-store_1  ... done
 Creating acs-trial_proxy_1              ... done
 Creating acs-trial_transform-router_1   ... done
 Creating acs-trial_transform-core-aio_1 ... done
 Attaching to acs-trial_postgres_1, acs-trial_control-center_1, acs-trial_sync-service_1, acs-trial_share_1, acs-trial_digital-workspace_1, acs-trial_alfresco_1, acs-trial_solr6_1,    acs-trial_activemq_1, acs-trial_shared-file-store_1, acs-trial_proxy_1, acs-trial_transform-router_1, acs-trial_transform-core-aio_1
 ...

    Note that the name of each container begins with the folder name you created in step 2.

    As an alternative, you can also start the containers in the background by running docker-compose up -d.

  6. Wait for the logs to complete, showing messages:

     ...
 alfresco_1 | 2022-12-14 14:00:50,707  INFO  ... Starting 'Transformers' subsystem, ID: [Transformers, default]
 alfresco_1 | 2022-12-14 14:00:50,874  INFO  ... Startup of 'Transformers' subsystem, ID: [Transformers, default] complete
 ...

    See Troubleshooting if you encounter errors whilst the system is starting up.

  7. Open your browser and check everything starts up correctly:

    Service Endpoint Comment
    Administration and REST APIs http://localhost:8080/alfresco
    Share http://localhost:8080/share
    Digital Workspace http://localhost:8080/workspace
    Search Services administration http://localhost:8083/solr

    To get to the Solr Admin UI it’s necessary to add a header with a secret.

    For Safari:

    1. Go to Develop -> Show Web Inspector -> Sources.
    2. Click on the + next to Local Overrides and select Local Overrides….
    3. Configure URL with regular expression, using Solr host and port (e.g http://localhost:8983/solr/*) and add the X-Alfresco-Search-Secret header with the secret value.

    For Chrome, FireFox, Opera, and Edge:

    1. Install the ModHeader extension.
    2. Add the X-Alfresco-Search-Secret header with the secret value, as seen in the image.
    Sync Service health check http://localhost:9090/alfresco/healthcheck
    Admin Console http://localhost:8080/alfresco/s/enterprise/admin

    If Docker is running on your local machine, the IP address will be just localhost.

    If you’re still using the Docker Toolbox, you’ll need to switch to Docker Desktop as Docker Toolbox is deprecated.

  8. Log in as the admin user. Enter the default administrator password admin.

Check system start up

Use this information to verify that the system started correctly, and to clean up the deployment.

  1. Open a new terminal window.

  2. Change directory to the docker-compose folder that you created in the deployment steps.

  3. Verify that all the services started correctly.

    1. List the images and additional details:

       docker-compose images

      You should see a list of the services defined in your docker-compose.yml file (below are the tags used in the latest 7.3.0 release):

       Container                        Repository                                     Tag                       Image Id       Size

    2. List the running containers:

       docker-compose ps

      You should see a list of the services defined in the docker-compose.yml file.

    3. View the log files for each service <service-name>, or container <container-name>:

       docker-compose logs <service-name>
 docker container logs <container-name>

      For example, to check the logs for Share, run any of the following commands:

       docker-compose logs share
 docker container logs acs-trial_share_1

      You can add an optional parameter --tail=25 before <container-name> to display the last 25 lines of the logs for the selected container.

       docker-compose logs --tail=25 share
 docker container logs --tail=25 acs-trial_share_1

      Check for a success message:

       Successfully retrieved license information from Alfresco.

    Once you’ve tested the services, you can clean up the deployment by stopping the running services.

  4. Stop the session by using CONTROL+C in the same window as the running services:

     Gracefully stopping... (press Ctrl+C again to force)
 Stopping acs-trial_transform-router_1   ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_proxy_1              ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_transform-core-aio_1 ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_postgres_1           ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_alfresco_1           ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_solr6_1              ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_shared-file-store_1  ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_share_1              ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_sync-service_1       ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_control-center_1     ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_digital-workspace_1  ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_activemq_1           ... done

  5. Alternatively, you can open a new terminal window, change directory to the docker-compose folder, and run:

     docker-compose down

    This stops the running services, as shown in the previous example, and removes them from memory:

     Stopping acs-trial_transform-core-aio_1 ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_transform-router_1   ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_proxy_1              ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_shared-file-store_1  ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_solr6_1              ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_share_1              ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_alfresco_1           ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_postgres_1           ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_digital-workspace_1  ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_sync-service_1       ... done
 Stopping acs-trial_activemq_1           ... done

 Removing acs-trial_activemq_1           ... done
 Removing acs-trial_control-center_1     ... done
 Removing network acs-trial_default

  6. You can use a few more commands to explore the services when they’re running. Change directory to docker-compose before running these:

    1. Stop all the running containers:

       docker-compose stop

    2. Restart the containers (after using the stop command):

       docker-compose restart

    3. Starts the containers that were started with docker-compose up:

       docker-compose start

    4. Stop all running containers, and remove them and the network:

       docker-compose down [--rmi all]

      The --rmi all option also removes the images created by docker-compose up, and the images used by any service. You can use this, for example, if any containers fail and you need to remove them:

       docker-compose down --rmi all

Deployment project in GitHub

See the Alfresco/acs-deployment GitHub project for more details.

  • In this project, you’ll find several Docker Compose files. The default docker-compose.yml file contains the latest work-in-progress deployment scripts, and installs the latest development version of Content Services.
  • To deploy a specific released version of Content Services, several major.minor Docker Compose files are provided in the docker-compose folder of the project.
  • To modify your development environment, for example to change or mount files in the existing images, you’ll have to create new custom Docker images (recommended approach). The same approach applies if you want to install AMP files into the repository and Share images. See the Customization guidelines for more.

Using one of the Docker Compose - Enterprise files in this project deploys the following system:

Customize

To customize the Docker Compose deployment, for example applying AMPs, we recommend following the best practice of creating your own custom Docker image(s). The Customization guidelines walks you through this process.

Cleanup

To bring the system down and cleanup the containers run the following command:

docker-compose down

Troubleshooting

  1. If you have issues running docker-compose up after deleting a previous Docker Compose cluster, try replacing step 5 in the initial Docker Compose instructions with:

     docker-compose down && docker-compose build --no-cache && docker-compose up

  2. If you’re having issues running docker-compose up on Windows environments due to unavailable or reserved ports, and get errors such as: bind: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions which means that the Windows NAT (WinNAT) service has reserved the port range that Docker Compose is trying to use.

    To remedy this issue, run the following in a terminal:

     net stop winnat
 docker-compose up
 net start winnat

  3. Stop the session by using CONTROL+C.

  4. Remove the containers (using the --rmi all option):

     docker-compose down --rmi all

  5. Try allocating more memory resources to Docker, as advised in docker-compose.yml.

    For example, in Docker, change the memory setting in Preferences (Mac) or Settings (Windows) > Resources > Advanced > Memory to at least 13 GB. If you make changes, click Apply & Restart and wait for the process to finish before continuing.

    Go back to step 5 in the initial Docker Compose instructions to start the deployment again.

When using Linux as Docker host, all the memory in the computer is available to Docker Compose. So no additional actions are required.

When using Docker with Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) 2 Backend in Windows, use the .wslconfig file to increase the memory available for Docker Compose.

Note: In order to deploy onto Docker Desktop you need to allocate at least 13 GB (preferably 16 GB) to the Docker Engine on the Resources tab in Docker Desktop’s preferences pane as shown in the screenshot below. This is required because insufficient memory will cause containers to exit without warning.
