Issues w/ Dokku Subdomains, pushes, and DB's

Posted on May 5, 2014

Having some issues lately with the 1 click app Dokku on Ubuntu 14, seems to hang completely when attempting to either push or run a mysql/mariadb command.

Setup Dokku using virtual hosts naming (subdomain.domain.com). Can access the root domain, but all other subdomains cant be found. Have been fiddling with dns all day but no dice. Current setup is: default settings with an addition of - cname * @

As for git pushes, they initially worked, then started to error out, and now simply hang. Added them by: git remote add dokku dokku@ip_address:app_name, since dokku dokku@domain_name:app_name was giving errors.

Installed mysql plugin, and running any command hangs the console, deleted mysql and install mariadb - same issue.

Not sure if this makes a difference, but all the apps are php based (wordpress).

Any ideas?

Is it possible you’re running out of memory? Is there anything interesting in “/var/log/syslog” ? To look at the logs of the apps being run by Dokku, find the app’s id using: <br> <br><pre> <br>docker ps -a <br></pre> <br> <br>and then run: <br> <br><pre> <br>docker logs <container ID> <br></pre>

Hey Andrew! <br> <br>Running “docker ps -a” looks normal to me, but then again im not too sure what to look for, as for “docker logs” - the containers im having trouble with are saying no such file or directory…

I’ve resized my drop to 4gb/2cpus, 60gb ssd. 4tb transfer - but the droplet admin is showing 4GB Ram 20GB SSD Disk… and even after the resize, the hanging still occurs…
