**GUIDE** How to Install Authelia on unRAID

[Sycotix]

Had a lot of trouble fining help getting Authelia working on unRAID. Mostly due to my own lack of knowledge. But thanks to some help and time put in, I present you my guide written based on what I did to get it working, alongside NGINX Proxy Manager.

 

Never used git before but here you go: https://github.com/ibracorp/authelia

 

If anyone knows how to put an XML on Community Apps for easier finding please let me know I'd be happy to do it.

 

Cheers

and after go to radarr.myunraid.ru/ page redirect to https://authelia.myunraid.ru/?rd=http://radarr.myunraid.ru/

and i see 403 error.

but if i write https://authelia.myunraid.ru/?rd=httpS://radarr.myunraid.ru/ then that work.

[Sycotix]

@Un1Q thanks for posting the logs and files. 

 

I see in your Authelia configuration the information is not right. Such as the rules section. Is this on purpose? Currently it shows example.com. which needs to be updated. 

 

Also, for HTTPS, NGINX Proxy Manager should already be handling this for you. I use Cloudflare too which guarantees the SSL and is free. Perhaps this is something you could set up too.

Can I ask you to keep the conversation going in the support thread? Found here: https://forums.unraid.net/topic/94096-support-ibracorp-all-images-and-files/

Hi,

I have swag and Authelia containers, I want to jail login attemps from Authelia, but jail.local need to reads Authelia log. I tried to point to Authelia log from swag/jail.local, but it could not find it. How can jail.local read Authelia log?

 

I want to backup Authelia. I have backup the appdata/authelia and MariaDB. Do I need to backup redis DB? If yes how?

One issue I am getting is bypassing local network these are my setting if someone can help. Even with this rule it stills ask for authentication internally

 

default_policy: deny

    rules:

    - domain: "*.XXXXXXXX.com"

      policy: bypass

      networks:

        - 192.168.1.0/24

    - domain: "*.XXXXXXXcom"

      policy: two_factor

Is it possible to use Authelia in front of Nextcloud? I know you can do it when using a web browser but I can't get it to work if I want to use the Nexcloud-client(https://nextcloud.com/install/) on my PC or android phone.

[norsemanGrey]

I am using Authelia together with Nginx Proxy Manager. Both are installed with Docker containers on the same host. I have got the setup working with most of my services, but for some reason when trying to get it to work with VSCode (using linuxserver/code-server) I only get a white/blank screen after login. Anyone have any tip as to what might be wrong? I am using the same endpoint configuration for all the services just changing out the address and port number. I have no trouble with VSCode when not behind Authelia.

Yes, just change the protocol to https instead of http. I've got it working on mine.

This what i followed ... also guide from ibracorp website (they made cool job) but having server error on start up authelia docker!

but no auto config file when created authelia docker.

Also deleted and recreated container some times but having same error .

1. maked database in mariadb

2. installed redis + bitnami folder

3. when making authelia container no auto making config ?!?

 

then i dowloaded original config and from ibracorp github also edited config with my data and copied to Authelia empty folder

made other stuff like auth.myserver.com but same error ...

 

 

[xxbigfootxx]

You'll need post your authelia logs so I can see what the exact error is.

 

Also I found that copying full config file and editing that worked best for me.

The problem i dont have Authelia log becose of Server error ( Execution error) 

[xxbigfootxx]

Can you send screenshot of your docker settings? And where you can see execution error

i Solved the problem by changing port to 9092 (9092:9091)

some how i having error on 9091 (9091:9091) but i have no other docker on port 9091  ...

 

 

[xxbigfootxx]

You won't typically get that error even if another application is using the same port. It will still add, it just won't start the container as something else is running.

 

That error usually means there's an issue with docker image.

 

But if it's working now, that's good.

Thanks

The question - we can add users only by adding them to users_database.yml file manualy like in video we added first user ?

Yes, that's correct. All users will need to be specified that way and given a password that is hashed

Hope this is the right spot for Authelia support questions...it's been awhile since I've posted, everything has been working very well.     

 

I applied some docker updates this morning, but now I cannot get Authelia to start.   Redis, MariaDB and swag all start ok, but Authelia gives the following error:

Has anyone else seen this?

Seems like an issue with your SQL database.

 

Stop Authelia, force a manual update check on Mariadb and restart it, and then try to start Authelia.

[gravymaker]

OK - yeah, tried the force update on MariaDB, but it does look like something is wrong with MariaDB.    Although it shows as "started" in the Unraid GUI, the MariaDB log shows that it is constantly restarting.   Lots of this repeating in the log:

Might be easier to just blow away Mariadb and reinstall container. Depending on how many databases you've got setup, but if you don't clear appdata and reinstall from CA Previous Apps if should be fine.
