Docker with Thingworx + PostgreSQL fails to start

Hi!

 

I am struggling a lot with OOTB Docker images which PTC provides for Thingworx 8.4 & PostgreSQL setup.

What I am trying to do is to run Docker containers on my Ubuntu 18.04 Virtual Machine.

 

Everything seems to be installed correctly, but it fails to start with this error log:

Actually I found a solution.

According to the doc those variables:

      - "TWX_DATABASE_USERNAME=twadmin"
      - "TWX_DATABASE_SCHEMA=thingworx

NEED TO BE THE SAME. I changed it for thingworx everywhere and it is working like a charm.

I have no idea why there are 2 variables exposed, but only one value can be assign to both in one time.

 

Nevertheless that resolved my issue.

Hello,

 

Since it cannot find the relation, it looks like the database schema didn't initialize correctly. I suggest looking earlier in the docker-compose log, up to the point where it executes /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/db-setup.sh

 

Regards,
Constantine
