Did not create BookLore.  Just created template for Unraid

https://github.com/adityachandelgit/BookLore

 

Any instructions on how to set it up?  I can't seem to get it started.

 

I get this error:

What does your config look like?

Just now, GreenEyedMonster said:

I am new to booklore but I am pretty sure the database connection needs the full url. So from your config, change the database url to

jdbc:mariadb://192.168.80.100:3306/booklore

@GreenEyedMonster I just struggled with this for the last hour with those same errors and realized that BookLore does not seem to like MySQL. Use the string that @jmztaylor mentioned pointing to a MariaDB container. Not sure if you went with MySQL like I did, but I think the Template should be modified to require MariaDB and not to even mention MySQL. Just my humble opinion. I got it working now.

Best of luck to you.

Did that now I'm getting this error:

SQL State : HY000

Error Code : 1728

Message : (conn=5) Cannot load from mysql.proc. The table is probably corrupted

I updated the template to remove mysql reference.

@Tylan mentioned mysql isn't working and the requirement is actually mariadb.

I got to work. Made a new mariadb official container and it worked. :)

Thank you!

Im trying to enable this container but getting the error:

When I try to open the webui I just get a timeout on the page load.

Probably need to get support at the project page. Doesn't seem like a template issue.

This does not work for me at all. Using MariaDB. Is there a step by step guide for this?

To OP consider using original logo? https://github.com/booklore-app/booklore/blob/develop/assets/favicons/android-chrome-512x512.png

Been running this for months already on unraid with the following settings:

Hi,

Trying to get this working. Can someone post their working config for maridb? and same for the booklore app, so that I can see what goes where?

Same here. Tried all the above and can't get Booklore to work at all.

I have it running. I made sure the database was created with the user having privileges to the database in MariaDB.

Care to share some details, because at this point, nothing I've tried has worked. In fact, in the log file for Booklore, it says "Access denied for user 'booklore'@'172.17.0.1'" which isn't even a valid IP address anywhere in my system.

Nothing special in my settings... Have you set up the database in MariaDB before starting the container?

No. Didn't see anything that I needed to. Google is my friend. DB and user created and Booklore now running. Thanks!!!

Would you be bale to explain how you did this? I cant seem to figure this out even with Googling.

Install Mariadb from the Apps tab. I used the official container. Random password for root (displayed in the log for the container so you won't forget), and then used the rest of the template to setup a db for booklore with username and password appropriate for that. Then start the container, and install Booklore. Supply those credentials you just created for mariadb to the Booklore docker template. Worked first time for me, and that's saying something!

Great app! It's like Plex for ebooks. So much nicer than the calibre stuff.

I got Boooklore working. Here's my MariaDB setup:

I left REMOTE_SQL untouched because I don't know what it does. Note the non-standard WebUI port, because I have another MariaDB container running.

Here's my Booklore setup:

Hope this helps, @Johnny Utah

Hey y'all,

I followed the guide that sonofdbn outlined above, and it seemed to install okay, but the container didn't automatically start. When I started it and tried to access the webUI, Firefox just said it couldn't connect. I checked the logs and it keeps saying "socket fail to connect to localhost. Connection refused"

I'm so confused - I have other servers running on the local host and I can connect to them no problem. I'll attach the full log here. If anyone can shine a light on why it won't run, I'd sure appreciate it.

Is localhost in your db URL? If so, it should be your server IP
