docker-php-nginx VS LibreNMS-docker

You can't compare that... your image is just another fpm/nginx combo ... plenty of these around

simple light weight

It's a question of ressource allocation / scalability desires vs ease of deployment... php ships an apache image ready to go docker pull php:apache. Personally I would prefer using a php-fpm/nginx hybrid for performance ... something like this

I have a dull day at work, so i'm going to play around with trying to get it running based on (this)[https://hub.docker.com/r/trafex/php-nginx] image.

I think I found a decent starting point: https://github.com/TrafeX/docker-php-nginx

linbrenms docker there is a docker image that can be built. I haven't tried but this is on a list of things to try.

I'm using the provided docker-compose.yml file and have all the environment files setup but if I go to Alert Transports and create an email based transport and test it I get the error "Could not instantiate mail function."

I want to migrate my install from a standard install to docker. I know it needs a database but do I need the other five containers listed in the sample docker-compose file?

change the config from https://github.com/librenms/docker/blob/master/doc/notes/edit-config.md

From: https://github.com/librenms/docker/blob/master/examples/compose/docker-compose.yml

Have a look here at their example docker-compose file on github so you can see the service structure. Its not Portainer, but its pretty straightforward.

mkdir $HOME/src cd $HOME/src git clone https://github.com/librenms/docker.git librenms-docker cd librenms-docker/examples/compose docker-compose up -d
