[ERROR] White website

[WaterKnight1998]

When I access the website I see a White Landing Page.
I built it as follows:

git clone https://github.com/metasfresh/metasfresh-docker.git
cd metasfresh-docker/
docker-compose build
docker-compose up -d

I believe CORS is enabled by default. Can you pls try accessing the URL with the browser having disabled web security ? Thanks

It was solved editing config.js

I suggest you to update installation documentation

@WaterKnight1998 How did you edit config.js?

@TKlerx

You have two ways of editing the config.js:

1. in your docker-compose.yml

• metasfresh-docker/docker-compose.yml

  Line 67 in 1a7f95e

  #- WEBAPI_URL=http://example.com:8080

  • shall point to where your system shall be available from the clients (yeah I know, naming is a bit confusing and suboptimal but it's from pretty early days where webapi needed to be separated by webui on port-level)
  • so if you want your clients to use https://mymetasfresh_server.com you would set WEBAPI_URL=https://mymetasfresh_server.com
• this is a global environment variable which is used to fill in the blanks in config.js

2. manually in metasfresh-docker/webui/sources/configs/config.js

• https://github.com/metasfresh/metasfresh-docker/blob/master/webui/sources/configs/config.js
• again, replace http://MYDOCKERHOST:PORT with where your clients shall access the webui
• then build and up the project: docker-compose down && docker-compose build && docker-compose up -d

---

You can verify your settings are correct by:

• checking in docker:
  • docker exec metasfresh-docker_webui_1 cat /opt/metasfresh-webui-frontend/dist/config.js
• or checking dev-tools in your browser
  • eg. chrome: ctrl+shift+i -> Sources Tab -> hard refresh page (eg. ctrl+shift+r)
    They both shall point to the url of your browser - aka where your clients will access the server.

Thanks for the reply. Somehow, I did not follow this thread any more. My solution was to use this docker-compose.yml file:

We were exited to used metafresh as a case study for a discipline of software testing in my university, unfortunately this bug killed the idea. Hope you guys fix it till next year.

It's nearly 4 years since this bug was reported, why isn't this problem solved?
This is the second erp-software with issues due to documentation an configuration in/with docker. Why is this such an problem?
I would realy like tu use the software but there is no way like that.
