Issue with crawl4ai using docker on intel mac

[rothnic]

I ran the docker-start.sh script. Everything seemed to start up correctly, but i received this error when i started a crawl:

[ERROR] 🚫 arun(): Failed to crawl https://stately.ai/docs, error: BrowserContext.new_page: Target page, context or browser has been closed

I looked at the console output again and noticed this issue:

 ! crawl4ai The requested image's platform (linux/arm64/v8) does not match the detected host platform (linux/amd64/v3) and no specific platform was requested                                   0.0s 

I took a look at the crawl4ai issues and found this discussion: unclecode/crawl4ai#554

So, I tried using this in the docker-compose file instead: image: unclecode/crawl4ai:basic-amd64, but you can see the discussion here about the image being old and having issues when built manually.

Using the suggested image kind of works? It seems to take forever to come back with a crawl depth greater than 1, but does seem to finally present all the links available to crawl. Maybe this is as expected though.

Hi @rothnic there is a fix for this in the discord channel. https://discord.gg/JHKncaAj

Problem: If you are using intel based macs the docker file for Crawl4Ai wont work right as its emulating the behavior of amd(silicon mac) to fix that one needs to change the following in the docker-compose.yml file.

Solution: Thanks to <@123909877931311107> for the solution

In the docker-compose.yml just change
crawl4ai:
image: unclecode/crawl4ai:all
to
crawl4ai:
image: unclecode/crawl4ai:all-amd64

Running into the same issue on Intel Windows. Tried changing the docker-compose.yml file to
image: unclecode/crawl4ai:all-amd64 and rebuilding, but it reverts back to image: unclecode/crawl4ai:all. Any ideas?
