They weren’t cut using anything close to “atomic” or nuclear!
The Internet is NOT atomic proof, and never will be!
You are completely right.
After more than 40 trials and attempts, am happy to report that we have a new docker container that implements the suggestions by Steph.
All the download logic is implemented in the dockerfile unit
only the database execution and restore parts have been impleemnte din a seprate db_setup/sh file.
you should technically be in a position to start the container when no connectivity is available.
the contained docker is implemented here: geniusdynamics/docker-glpi at combined (github.com)
and published here with a tag: combined
geniusdynamics/glpi Tags | Docker Hub
NEthserver App that implements this new docker is found here: geniusdynamics/ns8-glpi at genius-glpi (github.com)
under the branch genius-glpi
you can install and test the new container implementation by running
add-module ghcr.io/geniusdynamics/glpi:genius-glpi 1
You can update to this build by running
api-cli run update-module --data '{"module_url":"ghcr.io/geniusdynamics/glpi:genius-glpi","instances":["glpi1"],"force":true}'
TEsted scenarios
A) New instalaltion - seems to work well with no issues
B) Update from existing Image - breaks and presents default apache2 debian webpage
However, accessing the link with /glpi appended, takes you to the login page
and all your data is restored and in place.
Am not sure why this is the case,
@stephdl since you ar emore experienced with the container, could you help Audit the container kindly and suggest areas of improvemnts.
We implemented functions to restore database, if the docker container is run independently as well as if run within the nethserver context to properly handle the restore_db commands.
Afew security warnings, working on the last one, not sure about the second last one
point me the branch of the project, the main has no changes
the install.php can be removed once downloaded from glpi project
the second you needs to make a virtualhost to silent the warning (check my repo on glpu)
and the third I suppose you have to enable it,
immediately after download?!
combined branch of docker-glpi
Edit
i might have pushed an update tryign to impleemnt
# Proper permissions and configurations for GLPI

from the previous docker that is causing some issues on install.
working on a resolution…
implementing either
apachectl -D FOREGROUND
and
exec apache2-foreground
on our entrpoint seems to cause an issue, not sure what happened there
Seen the culprit…
resolved
love this part in the logs, meaning backup restore works…
2024-03-19T14:52:58+03:00 [1:glpi10:glpi-app] Database backup found on external database. Restoring...
is this going to be an issue?

I think you should at the end of dockerfile try to clean tmp apt cache to shrink the size of the image
RUN apt-get clean
&& rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
Do the same in each tmp folder you can find

Try to install with apt install --no-install-recommends like this you could avoid to install deb that you do not need

I got it myself a lot of time…evident issue is the one we search more
I had not seen one, thanks for the sight.
need to remove lots of modules on my testing server
and it seems you gys fixed a more problematic issue, it was initially not possible to properly habdle low dis space, and the server would crash completely without ability to access or recover web UI, during core updates
this server has been busy testing
