NSO Docker

[jeyriku]

Hi Devnet team,

Thanks to the following great article, https://developer.cisco.com/codeexchange/github/repo/NSO-developer/nso-docker

i was able to deploy an instance of NSO using a docker container.

However, as soon as i expose & publish some ports i can not access NSO webui:

d64c559c9e15   cisco-nso-dev:5.5.3      "/enter-shell.sh"   9 minutes ago   Up 9 minutes   0.0.0.0:222->22/tcp, 0.0.0.0:82->80/tcp, :::82->80/tcp, 0.0.0.0:4443->443/tcp, :::4443->443/tcp, 0.0.0.0:8082->8080/tcp, :::8082->8080/tcp   nsojey

Can you please lead me to the correct direction ?

Thanks in advance,

Jerems,

Hey.

I would troubleshoot like this:

1. Try another browser (so if Firefox is not opening it, try Chrome and vice versa
2. Go to container and:
   1. Make sure NSO is actually up and running
   2. Issue:

      curl -k -X GET https://localhost:443/restconf/data -H 'Accept: application/yang-data+json' -u admin:admin -v

   3. Check ncs.conf if RESTCONF or webui is 'false'
3. On docker host issue

   curl -k -X GET https://localhost:4443/restconf/data -H 'Accept: application/yang-data+json' -u admin:admin -v

4. Try telneting from your PC to X.X.X.X 4443 (here I suppose you use windows PC, if you have mac or linux pc, try curl like above)

If 3. is fine but 4. fails then you need to have a word with whoever is doing firewalls.

Hi @u.avsec,

First of all, thank you for reverting to me. I finally found my way in this "maze" but i keep your tshoot steps for sure !

As you mentioned it, the webui is in the "false" boolean state by default. I solved my issue by putting it into "true".

Now i'm struggling with ADMIN_PASSWORD which seems to not apply the password i want to set.

I'm going to cretate another topic about what should be the step from moving to a basic development install to a docker base install of NSO.

Thank you again for your help.
