To run this application you need Docker Engine >= 1.10.0
. Docker Compose is recommended with a version 1.6.0
or later.
Running SuiteCRM with a database server is the recommended way. You can either use docker-compose or run the container manually.
This is the recommended way to run SuiteCRM. You can use the following docker compose template:
version: '2'
services:
mariadb:
image: 'bitnami/mariadb:latest'
environment:
- MARIADB_USER=bn_suitecrm
- MARIADB_DATABASE=bitnami_suitecrm
- ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes
volumes:
- 'mariadb_data:/bitnami'
suitecrm:
image: 'bitnami/suitecrm:latest'
environment:
- MARIADB_HOST=mariadb
- MARIADB_PORT_NUMBER=3306
- SUITECRM_DATABASE_USER=bn_suitecrm
- SUITECRM_DATABASE_NAME=bitnami_suitecrm
- ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes
ports:
- '80:80'
- '443:443'
volumes:
- 'suitecrm_data:/bitnami'
depends_on:
- mariadb
volumes:
mariadb_data:
driver: local
suitecrm_data:
driver: local
If you want to run the application manually instead of using docker-compose, these are the basic steps you need to run:
- Create a new network for the application and the database:
$ docker network create suitecrm-tier
- Create a volume for MariaDB persistence and create a MariaDB container
$ docker volume create --name mariadb_data
$ docker run -d --name mariadb \
-e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes \
-e MARIADB_USER=bn_suitecrm \
-e MARIADB_DATABASE=bitnami_suitecrm \
--net suitecrm-tier \
--volume mariadb_data:/bitnami \
bitnami/mariadb:latest
Note: You need to give the container a name in order to SuiteCRM to resolve the host
- Create volumes for Suitecrm persistence and launch the container
$ docker volume create --name suitecrm_data
$ docker run -d --name suitecrm -p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
-e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes \
-e SUITECRM_DATABASE_USER=bn_suitecrm \
-e SUITECRM_DATABASE_NAME=bitnami_suitecrm \
--net suitecrm-tier \
--volume suitecrm_data:/bitnami \
bitnami/suitecrm:latest
Then you can access your application at http://your-ip/
If you remove the container all your data and configurations will be lost, and the next time you run the image the database will be reinitialized. To avoid this loss of data, you should mount a volume that will persist even after the container is removed.
For persistence you should mount a volume at the /bitnami
path. Additionally you should mount a volume for persistence of the MariaDB data.
The above examples define docker volumes namely mariadb_data
and suitecrm_data
. The SuiteCRM application state will persist as long as these volumes are not removed.
To avoid inadvertent removal of these volumes you can mount host directories as data volumes. Alternatively you can make use of volume plugins to host the volume data.
This requires a minor change to the docker-compose.yml
template previously shown:
version: '2'
services:
mariadb:
image: 'bitnami/mariadb:latest'
environment:
- ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes
- MARIADB_USER=bn_suitecrm
- MARIADB_DATABASE=bitnami_suitecrm
volumes:
- '/path/to/mariadb-persistence:/bitnami'
suitecrm:
environment:
- SUITECRM_DATABASE_USER=bn_suitecrm
- SUITECRM_DATABASE_NAME=bitnami_suitecrm
- ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes
image: 'bitnami/suitecrm:latest'
depends_on:
- mariadb
ports:
- '80:80'
- '443:443'
volumes:
- '/path/to/suitecrm-persistence:/bitnami'
In this case you need to specify the directories to mount on the run command. The process is the same than the one previously shown:
- Create a network (if it does not exist):
$ docker network create suitecrm-tier
- Create a MariaDB container with host volume:
$ docker run -d --name mariadb \
-e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes \
-e MARIADB_USER=bn_suitecrm \
-e MARIADB_DATABASE=bitnami_suitecrm \
--net suitecrm-tier \
--volume /path/to/mariadb-persistence:/bitnami \
bitnami/mariadb:latest
Note: You need to give the container a name in order to SuiteCRM to resolve the host
- Create the SuiteCRM container with host volumes:
$ docker run -d --name suitecrm -p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
-e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes \
-e SUITECRM_DATABASE_USER=bn_suitecrm \
-e SUITECRM_DATABASE_NAME=bitnami_suitecrm \
--net suitecrm-tier \
--volume /path/to/suitecrm-persistence:/bitnami \
bitnami/suitecrm:latest
Bitnami provides up-to-date versions of MariaDB and SuiteCRM, including security patches, soon after they are made upstream. We recommend that you follow these steps to upgrade your container. We will cover here the upgrade of the SuiteCRM container. For the MariaDB upgrade you can take a look at https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-mariadb/blob/master/README.md#upgrade-this-image
-
Create snapshots, which you can use to restore the application state should the upgrade fail:
-
Take a snapshot of the application state
$ rsync -a /path/to/suitecrm-persistence /path/to/suitecrm-persistence.bkp.$(date +%Y%m%d-%H.%M.%S)
-
Create a snapshot with the MariaDB data.
-
-
Upgrade SuiteCRM by following the official SuiteCRM upgrade instructions using the upgrade wizard.
When you start the SuiteCRM image, you can adjust the configuration of the instance by passing one or more environment variables either on the docker-compose file or on the docker run command line.

suitecrm:
image: bitnami/suitecrm:latest
ports:
- 80:80
environment:
- SUITECRM_PASSWORD=my_password
- For manual execution add a
-e
option with each variable and value:
$ docker run -d -p 80:80 -p 443:443 --name suitecrm \

The Bitnami SuiteCRM Docker image is designed to be extended so it can be used as the base image for your custom web applications.
Before extending this image, please note there are certain configuration settings you can modify using the original image:
- Settings that can be adapted using environment variables. For instance, you can change the ports used by Apache for HTTP and HTTPS, by setting the environment variables
APACHE_HTTP_PORT_NUMBER
andAPACHE_HTTPS_PORT_NUMBER
respectively. - Adding custom virtual hosts.
- Replacing the 'httpd.conf' file.
- Using custom SSL certificates.
If your desired customizations cannot be covered using the methods mentioned above, extend the image. To do so, create your own image using a Dockerfile with the format below:
FROM bitnami/suitecrm
## Put your customizations below
...
Here is an example of extending the image with the following modifications:
- Install the
vim
editor - Modify the Apache configuration file
- Modify the ports used by Apache
FROM bitnami/suitecrm
LABEL maintainer "Bitnami <[email protected]>"
## Install 'vim'
RUN install_packages vim
## Enable mod_ratelimit module
RUN sed -i -r 's/#LoadModule ratelimit_module/LoadModule ratelimit_module/' /opt/bitnami/apache/conf/httpd.conf
## Modify the ports used by Apache by default
# It is also possible to change these environment variables at runtime
ENV APACHE_HTTP_PORT_NUMBER=8181
ENV APACHE_HTTPS_PORT_NUMBER=8143
EXPOSE 8181 8143
Based on the extended image, you can use a Docker Compose file like the one below to add other features:
version: '2'
services:
mariadb:
image: 'bitnami/mariadb:10.3'
environment:
- MARIADB_USER=bn_suitecrm
- MARIADB_DATABASE=bitnami_suitecrm
- ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes
volumes:
- 'mariadb_data:/bitnami'
suitecrm:
build: .
environment:
- MARIADB_HOST=mariadb
- MARIADB_PORT_NUMBER=3306
- SUITECRM_DATABASE_USER=bn_suitecrm
- SUITECRM_DATABASE_NAME=bitnami_suitecrm
- ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes
ports:
- '80:8181'
- '443:8143'
volumes:
- 'suitecrm_data:/bitnami'
depends_on:
- mariadb
volumes:
mariadb_data:
driver: local
suitecrm_data:
driver: local
- This image has been adapted so it's easier to customize. See the Customize this image section for more information.
- The Apache configuration volume (
/bitnami/apache
) has been deprecated, and support for this feature will be dropped in the near future. Until then, the container will enable the Apache configuration from that volume if it exists. By default, and if the configuration volume does not exist, the configuration files will be regenerated each time the container is created. Users wanting to apply custom Apache configuration files are advised to mount a volume for the configuration at/opt/bitnami/apache/conf
, or mount specific configuration files individually. - The PHP configuration volume (
/bitnami/php
) has been deprecated, and support for this feature will be dropped in the near future. Until then, the container will enable the PHP configuration from that volume if it exists. By default, and if the configuration volume does not exist, the configuration files will be regenerated each time the container is created. Users wanting to apply custom PHP configuration files are advised to mount a volume for the configuration at/opt/bitnami/php/conf
, or mount specific configuration files individually. - Enabling custom Apache certificates by placing them at
/opt/bitnami/apache/certs
has been deprecated, and support for this functionality will be dropped in the near future. Users wanting to enable custom certificates are advised to mount their certificate files on top of the preconfigured ones at/certs
.
- Due to several broken SuiteCRM features and plugins, the entire
htdocs
directory is now being persisted (instead of a select number of files and directories). Because of this, upgrades will not work and a full migration needs to be performed. Upgrade instructions have been updated to reflect these changes.
-
If you are automatically logged out from the administration panel, you can try deploying SuiteCRM with the environment variable
SUITECRM_VALIDATE_USER_IP=no
-
If you get a timeout error during the initial setup similar to:
Error executing 'postInstallation': Timeout: did not get to load all resources on this page
You can try to increase the value of the
SUITECRM_HTTP_TIMEOUT
environment variable mentioned above.
