Thingworx 9.3 Docker Images

Hello,

Today I tried to build and start docker containers with Dockerfiles provided on PTC Support download page.
I've discovered that there is new container named 'security-cli' using by default 'thingworx/security-tool:latest' (screenshot of example docker-compose file below) image, but I cannot find any information about it, and I'm unable to run Thingworx containers becouse I didn't have this 'security-tool' image which now contains TWX_DATABASE_PASSWORD env. variable.

I would be grateful for any hints on running this version of Thingworx as docker container.

Hello @Chrischhan and @ZKacper ,

If I'm looking now in the support portal, I see the relevant Dockerfiles for the security CLI image in there. There was a delay until they were added indeed, but can you please let me know if you see these files or not?

The documentation is also available in the Help Center at these links: https://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx/platform/r9/en/index.html#page/ThingWorx/Help/Installation/ThingWorxDockerGuide/thingworx_docker_security_cli_setup.html#

The getting started guide is in process of being updated (https://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx/platform/r9/en/index.html#page/ThingWorx/Help/Installation/ThingWorxDockerGuide/thingworx_docker_getting_started.html# ). Probably due to this you were not aware about this change.

hi,

 

I found the same problem yesterday. PTC has changed the creation of the images (for me since the 9.1).
I think PTC forgot to include the Dockerfile to create the security tool.

 

i hope they will fix it soon, or anyone can provide a Dockerfile for creation of the security tool
