Hello,

I believe my current situation does not allow these environment variables to 
properly reach my pgadmin installation.

Let me provide some context, it might help you help me.

  1.  I start from the image ‘mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:1809’
  2.  Then Docker downloads the windows installer located at 
https://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/pgadmin/pgadmin4/v6.7/windows/pgadmin4-6.7-x64.exe
  3.  It then executes the installer.
  4.  I am now trying to work through the initial setup in server deployment, 
regarding setting config files and running setup.py.

My guess is that this is the wrong way to go about a windows deployment in this 
context, but I’m not sure.

I did try the method of passing environment variables to my container. 
Unfortunately, the results are the same. Without something built into the 
Dockerfile to run the setup.py, no configuration is done during image build. 
When I run the image using ‘docker run -e …’, and then execute setup.py, it 
does not appear to see the environment variables, and hangs as before.

Thank you,

Alexander Biezenski

Hi Alexander,

The important part is the docker command to start pgAdmin. You need to pass the 
correct env vars -

Hello,

The steps there link to setting up a linux container; the docker hub only has 
linux/amd and linux/arm distributuons. I am looking to put together a windows 
container/distribution.

Or did I misunderstand you?

Thank you,

Hi Alexander,

If you're using docker then follow the steps here - 
https://www.pgadmin.org/docs/pgadmin4/6.7/container_deployment.html
You will have to have email and password when docker image is run.

Hello,

I am attempting to install pgadmin4 into a windows container using Docker, on a 
Windows Server 2019 system. The Dockerfile uses an image pulled from 
‘mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:1809<http://mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:1809>’.

I am restricted to cmd/PowerShell and am having issues at the setup.py step in 
the deployment guide.

If I try to use the Dockerfile RUN functionality to run the setup.py script 
(RUN C:\'program files'\'pgadmin 4'\v6\python\python.exe C:\'program 
files'\'pgadmin 4'\v6\web\setup.py), it asks for the initial email, and then 
errors out. There is not an easy way (that I have found), to pipe through an 
argument mid script, to answer the email/password prompt.

I then tried to stop short of that run step and finish this step manually via 
an exec <container> PowerShell and commit the changes setup.py back to the 
image. However, when I manually run the setup.py in this nested PowerShell, the 
prompt appears, and then refuses to accept input. I can put whatever text I 
want in, hit enter, and it just goes to the next line, with no further 
messages; no errors, not anything.

Do you have any suggestions? Is there an argument setting I am missing? Could I 
pre-generate the files somewhere and copy them over? Or is this simply 
unsupported?

Thank you,

Alexander Biezenski
