Port not accessible about postfixadmin HOT 11 CLOSED

Because this is not (by default) an external port. This port is used by your reverse proxy.

More information : https://github.com/hardware/mailserver/wiki/Reverse-proxy-configuration

location / {
    proxy_pass http://postfixadmin:8888;
    include /etc/nginx/conf/proxy_params;
}

from postfixadmin.

And how can i connect this postfixadmin to mail server running in another docker container where should i provide the path

from postfixadmin.

You don't need to connect this container to mail server, MariaDB is used for this purpose.

Then i get an error for login page i cannot access it i can send you my docker-compose.yml, i have my docker and maria db running and mysql instance too running and all up, but when i hit on 8888, i get an error on login page and it is not loading

from postfixadmin.

i can send you my docker-compose.yml

Yes.

from postfixadmin.

postfixadmin:
image: hardware/postfixadmin
container_name: postfixadmin
domainname: domain.tld
hostname: mail
links:
- mariadb:mariadb

environment:
- DBHOST=localhost:3306
- DBUSER=admin
- DBNAME=postfix
- DBPASS=admin
- UID=991

mariadb:
image: mariadb:10.1
container_name: mariadb
volumes:
- /mnt/docker/mysql/db:/var/lib/mysql
environment:
- MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=admin
- MYSQL_DATABASE=postfix

from postfixadmin.

If you really want to access postfixadmin container with an external port, you can add this :

postfixadmin:
  ports:
    - "8888:8888"

# URI : http://IPADDR:8888

Or you can use nginx as reverse proxy :

location / {
  proxy_pass http://postfixadmin:8888;
  include /etc/nginx/conf/proxy_params;
}

from postfixadmin.

I have use docker run command and passed port with -p and now i can access it from server where i have hosted it, now how to use the login page, as when i hit on login page i get an error for help page.

Error :
DEBUG INFORMATION:
Connect: Network unreachable

how to access logs for this?
And do we need a domain which will be used to send mail and where to configure if it isnt the case i can install it on my machine rather then server where mail server is hosted which is using that domain and can send mails. ?

We need a mailserver connection to manage domains, this postfix admin is accessing which mail server, how do i connect it to my own mail server ?

from postfixadmin.

# docker-compose.yml
extra_hosts:
 - "mariadb:xx.xx.xx.xx"

xx.xx.xx.xx : IP address of your MariaDB/MySQL server.
