New Server Instance

Conforma New server setup on Ubuntu 10.04

Steps to create new server:

• Have new server running on Openstack
• Open ports 50000 and 50001 for public
• Add the BW entry " Conforma Server" and with the public address to be used for Conforma app
  • to be edited by the end of this setup (here only for reference)
• After provided with public key, access via terminal using ssh
• Install Docker engine as instructed here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-use-docker-on-ubuntu-20-04
• Log in to docker hub (terminal docker login) as msupplyfoundation user
• Pull the last image from docker-hub: Example: sudo docker pull msupplyfoundation/conforma-demo:build-v0.2.0-3_2022-04-06_pg-12_node-14
• Set all required ENV VARIABLES: Example:
  • export TAG='build-v0.2.0-3_2022-04-06_pg-12_node-14'
  • export WEB_HOST='<host-domain>:50000'
  • export JWT_SECRET='<make-your-own>'
  • export SMTP_SECRET='<secret-in-BW>'
  • export BACKUPS_FOLDER='~/Dropbox/conforma_backups'
  • export BACKUPS_PASSWORD='<super-secret-encryption-key>'
• Install Docker compose: sudo apt install docker-compose
• Upgrade Docker compose to v2 as instructed here: https://docs.docker.com/compose/cli-command/#install-on-linux
• Copy demo-server folder to new server with scp
• Configure the domain: for host on cpanel with BW "conforma.nz cpanel"
• Install SSL Certificate with certbot (Let's encrypt)
• Install nginx and copy config from demo-server/
• Make sure nginx is running with: systemctl status nginx
• Manually changed nginx config file to forward external ports to internal: todo - add file example to demo-server folder...
• Open ports 50000 and 50001 externally on new server
• Started App & Dashboard on local ports 8000 and 8001:
  • You will need to be inside the folder demo-server
  • Run PORT_APP=8000 PORT_DASH=8001 sudo -E docker compose --project-name 'conforma-on-8000' up -d Note that uses docker compose instead of docker-compose to use the correct package installed on the server. Otherwise (when using docker-compose) you'll get this error:
