Looping db check when installing via docker compose

Hi,

I am trying to install homearr using the docker compose on https://homarr.dev/

version: '3'
#---------------------------------------------------------------------#
#     Homarr - A simple, yet powerful dashboard for your server.     #
#---------------------------------------------------------------------#
services:
  homarr:
    container_name: homarr
    image: ghcr.io/ajnart/homarr:latest
    restart: always
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock # Optional, only if you want docker integration
      - /.config/services/prod/web/homarr/configs:/app/data/configs
      - /.config/services/prod/web/homarr/icons:/app/public/icons
      - /.config/services/prod/web/homarr/data:/data
    ports:
      - '7575:7575'

version: '3'
#---------------------------------------------------------------------#

services:

    restart: always
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock # Optional, only if you want docker integration
      - /.config/services/prod/web/homarr/configs:/app/data/configs
      - /.config/services/prod/web/homarr/icons:/app/public/icons
      - /.config/services/prod/web/homarr/data:/data
    ports:
      - '7575:7575'

version: '3'

version: '3'
#---------------------------------------------------------------------#
#     Homarr - A simple, yet powerful dashboard for your server.     #
#---------------------------------------------------------------------#
services:
  homarr:
    container_name: homarr

      - /.config/services/prod/web/homarr/data:/data
    ports:
      - '7575:7575'

and I'm getting a looping message

homarr    | ℹ Instance is using a database on the file system. Checking if file '/data/db.sqlite' is writable...
homarr    | ℹ Database is writeable

Solution

Then closing the terminal will terminate Homarr, yes. You should press CTRL + C and run

docker compose up -d

docker compose up -d

instead.

-d

-d

-d

-d means detached - it will run in the background without relying on your Terminal session

Hi @SchmittyD , this is normal. No need for concern

SchmittyDOP•12/22/23, 8:19 AM

Ah ok. Thanks. How long should it take to run?

Manicraft1001•12/22/23, 8:19 AM

The database check should pass within 10 milliseconds (unless you have a very slow SSD / HDD).
Is the page not loading?

SchmittyDOP•12/22/23, 8:21 AM

I'm just looking at the terminal output. I'm running it on a linode.

Manicraft1001•12/22/23, 8:22 AM

These messages are nothing unusual. But since you only sent a part of the log, I cannot tell if the app is actually running or not

Manicraft1001•12/22/23, 8:23 AM

I assume you haven't connected to it yet? I don't quite understand your question yet...

SchmittyDOP•12/22/23, 8:23 AM

I've loaded the web page. It seems to working.

Manicraft1001•12/22/23, 8:23 AM

Awesome. Can we mark this as resolved then?

SchmittyDOP•12/22/23, 8:24 AM

Can I close the terminal window now or will that close it?

Manicraft1001•12/22/23, 8:24 AM

Do you run using Docker? How did you start Homarr?

SchmittyDOP•12/22/23, 8:25 AM

Yes, I am using Docker. Using the docker-compose file from the web site

Manicraft1001•12/22/23, 8:26 AM

Did you run

docker compose up

docker compose up

docker compose up -d

docker compose up -d

SchmittyDOP•12/22/23, 8:26 AM

docker compose up

SchmittyDOP•12/22/23, 8:27 AM

Ah ok, Thanks. This is my first time using docker

Manicraft1001•12/22/23, 8:28 AM

No worries. Does it run again after running the command?

SchmittyDOP•12/22/23, 8:29 AM

Yes

Manicraft1001•12/22/23, 8:30 AM

Awesome! Have fun with Homarr homarr

. Let us know if you have any questions

SchmittyDOP•12/22/23, 8:32 AM

Thanks very much! Will do. This is resolved now.
