Wallabag container never actually successfully starts up again after the initial run and installation.

[GlassedSilver]

Basically it never survived the reboot.

I got one run and that was one hell to setup.

I'm using docker compose with Postgres and redis.

My Wallabag container basically just cycles through this over and over again:

I am absolutely at the end of my wisdom, I have never had a deployment this hard to get done and most importantly:

It did run, but after a restart of the container: NADA.

What the hell?

[GlassedSilver]

Btw, I did clear the cache, I did try the migrate commands and I did also run docker exec -t wallabag_wallabag_1 php /var/www/wallabag/bin/console wallabag:install --env=prod -n.

The cache cleared successfully, the migrations return No migrations to execute. and the installation fails:

In AbstractPostgreSQLDriver.php line 70:

  An exception occurred while executing 'INSERT INTO "wallabag_user" [...]

SQLSTATE[23505]: Unique violation: 7 ERROR:  duplicate key value violates unique constraint "uniq_<REDACTED>"
  DETAIL:  Key (username_canonical)=(wallabag) already exists.

So uh...

I also tried pretty much any of what I could find in the other issues, at least I think I did. To no avail.

I can only reiterate how baffled I am how hard this application is to get setup and keep running. I have spent several dozens of hours with this already II have to admit, and I think I've really done as much research as was possible, I don't like asking for help too easily, but it seems like I'm good company so... screw it. Help me, please if you don't mind. :/

Your issue seems unrelated, since you get a completely different log readout.

Did you run the wallabag:install command? In any case, maybe consider creating a separate issue or check out other tickets with the error "no such table": https://github.com/wallabag/docker/issues?q=no+such+table

[Monirzadeh]

sorry i create a new issue if it possible please remove your comment to keep issue clean
just one question where shroud i enter wallabag:install command?

[GlassedSilver]

Answered to your question in your issue :)

[DySprozin]

Well, I got it)

0. docker-compose down
1. Create empty db (if db exists, drop db and recreate)
2. docker-compose up -d
3. Run migrations:

docker exec -t wallabag_wallabag_1  /var/www/wallabag/bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate --env=prod --no-interaction

4. Run install

docker exec -t wallabag_wallabag_1 php /var/www/wallabag/bin/console wallabag:install --env=prod -n

5. Enjoy!)

[thomas-mc-work]

Black magic, thank you very much!

Here for docker compose users:

docker compose exec wallabag /var/www/wallabag/bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate --env=prod --no-interaction
docker compose exec wallabag php /var/www/wallabag/bin/console wallabag:install --env=prod -n

[GlassedSilver]

Yeah I don't know how I figured it out eventually and if I did the same things (probably yes?), but docs were severely lacking in this regard when I tried and quite honestly if I give all info in the docker compose config the entire stack should figure out itself.

I know of no software that combines complicated, undocumented on-boarding with "works once, stops working after a reboot" with overall lots of additional steps like this.

Once you have it got to work Wallabag is nice, but boy if I had to spin up a second instance today without a backup and knowing what this issue documents I'd shudder and probably just consider Shiori, although there were some aspects to Wallabag over Shiori that had me stop considering it as alternative which is why I was willing to go through this much pain. If I wasn't so pedantic and picky I wouldn't have invested a fraction of the time I did to get into Wallabag.
