Hi guys, really want to set up some dockers but am completely stuck one one step in the process.

 

I've just updated to v6 of unraid and really like the look of it.

 

I've enabled the docker,set the default image size to 10GB and set the path of the image to /mnt/disk5/docker.img

 

I then goto the Docker tab where the standard repository is listed https://github.com/limetech/docker-templates

 

However, when I goto add container and click the select a template drop down, the only options are [user defined templates] and [Default templates]. However, neither of these are selectable and there are no other templates listed below these headings.

 

I have tried adding other repositories ie https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Build/tree/master/unraid-templates/emby and https://github.com/aptalca/docker-templates but this makes no difference.

 

I have also tried changing the path of the docker image to /boot/docker/docker.img so that it would be on the flash drive but again, I still have no templates to select.

 

I've searched everywhere to try and find out what's going on but can't find anything. If someone could help me with this, I'd be very appreciative.

PS: I've attached a syslog of me booting up if that helps.

Install the community application plugin by pasting this into the install plugin field and hitting install.

After that you don't need to bother with adding template repositories and can instead just search for dockers and plugins in the APP tab

This ^^^^

 

Also, I wouldn't be surprised if you're going to also have to go to settings - Network Settings and put in static DNS addresses of 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

Change this back.  You don't want the docker.img to be on the flash drive

The better way of doing this is going to Tools - Diagnostics and post the file that results.  Has far more information contained within it

Thanks saarg and Squid. I tried installing the plugin but that informed me there was a dowload failure.

 

I then tried putting the static DNS addresses in as recommended by Squid and everything seems to work now and I can select templates in the add container area.

 

I already had a static ip. Do you know why I needed a static DNS address to make this all work?

 

Thanks again both for your help.

Without a static DNS, the dns requests get forwarded to the router and then in turn forwarded to your ISP's DNS servers, and as a general rule they all suck.

 

But even with the system populating the templates now, do yourself a favour and install CA (should work now with the DNS set up right)

Ahh right, thanks for the DNS answer.

 

I'll install the CA now.

 

Cheers,
