getting started wtih docker

[qc-technology]

hi guys, new to Alfresco and i'm excited about getting it up and running.

i'm having a problem with the community eddition though, 

i have basically followed;

https://www.alfresco.com/thank-you/thank-you-downloading-alfresco-community-edition 

installed docker, downloaded the YML file and ran the "alfresco-compose up" command on my windows 10 machine

there was plenty going on in powershell but it appears to stall / hang.

powershell is showing

Have you got any solution same issue  i am also facing.

Thanks in Advance

Yes I did actually, check your docker settings and increase the CPU cores and ram

Bump th ram up to a minimum of 7gig and then try it again

It should al work from there

[akash251998]

So i should uninstall docker and again install it and change the configuration and then run the docker-compose up again??

Or i should change the setting at this time only.

Please suggest.

Thanks in Advance

Hi @akash251998,

You should be OK to just increase the RAM to at least 8GB, then restart docker & then run docker-compose up.

HTH,

[akash251998]

My system configuration is 8 gb RAM only.

@EddieMay This is my system configuration but Docker maximum memory is 3.75 what configuration i should make so that i can do the installation. I feel i am asking a lot. Any help will be appreciable.

Hi @akash251998,

I'm afraid you won't be able to run Alfresco ACS on your machine - 8GB ram is the minimum (I assign 12GB ram on my laptop).  I suggest you try the online trial version while you look at upgrading your machine.

Cheers,

[akash251998]

Thanku so much dear @EddieMay i will upgrade and again do the installation.
