How to deploy docker stack/swarm application
I've switched from docker compose to docker stack and after making changes to my docker-compose.yaml I've successfully deployed using docker stack/swarm.
However I am unable to access any of my applications even after setting domains and redeploying. I also can't see any containers running.
I feel like this is a simple issue but I don't know what to do since the docs are very somewhat basic. I am still confused on how to deploy using docker stack. I've built and pushed my images to docker hub in private repos.
I've attached my yaml file and build logs

Check Traefik logs
I feel like theres some crucial thing I am missing. Because I do not see any of the containers for the defined services in the Logs, Monitoring tabs or on the Docker Containers page. I only see my 2 databases (redis + mysql) containers running there.
Have I done the right steps? Isn't there a need for credentials or anything since the images are hosted on a private registry?
Although it says deployment was successful it seemed too easy 😩
So making the images on docker hub public resolves my deployment and I can access the applications. But I still don't know how we can use private image repositories when deploying with docker stack
I may have figured it out. I took these steps and it seems to work now:
- Add a container/docker registry account to dokploy
- append '--with-registr-auth' to the default command used to start the docker compose stack (can be found in the 'Advanced' tab)
stack deploy -c ./docker-compose.ya<...> --with-registry-auth --prune
I say may because I tried a bunch of other stuff when I SSH'd into the server running dokploy also. I did try to undo as much of them as I could so I could isolate and confirm this was the solution thoughI think I’m running into a similar issues transitioning from pertained (swarm) to dokploy. Will try your fix and report back if that get’s it working
Seems to fix it. But I think dokploys swarm support isn't quite there yet. We'll visit it in a couple of months to see how swarm support might have improved.
You may need to do some slight manual configuration to the
traefik.yml file to have Swarm working
