Deploy with Docker on Windows

In case you went with Docker on Windows, please make sure you changed the 'volumes' value for postgres container from "For unix host" to the "For windows host":

  volumes:
    # For windows host
    - postgres:/var/lib/postgresql/data
    # For unix host
    # - ./data/postgres:/var/lib/postgresql/data

If you haven’t done this, you will get an error

data directory “/var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata” has wrong ownership

Then uncomment the following:

    volumes:
     # For unix host
     # - ./data/storage:/data 
     # For windows host
      - minio:/data

And after that uncomment the following:

# Docker volume for Windows host
volumes:
  postgres:
  minio:

Updating ReportPortal with Docker​

Updating ReportPortal with Docker is a two step process.

In the first step, your Docker Compose file should be replaced with a new one (with the latest version services) from here.

The second step is update / redeploy the application using the following command:

docker-compose -p reportportal up -d --force-recreate

There is no strict need for backup / restore the data if you are keep the postgres, elasticsearch & minio volumes. However, it is recommended (see Maintain commands Cheat sheet).
