after I deploy, internel error happen about vikunja

[kolaente]

Which vikunja version is that? How are you hosting it (docker etc)?

The error message looks like the db credentials are incorrect. Can you verify the ones you have in the Vikunja config file are correct?

[rogerBridge]

Which vikunja version is that?

Vikunja api version v0.17.0+61-5b825f1cc8
Built with go1.16.5

How are you hosting it (docker etc)?

I use docker, sir, docker-compose.yml from your website

Can you verify the ones you have in the Vikunja config file are correct?

Sir, could you tell me how to verify it? thank you : )

[kolaente]

Sir, could you tell me how to verify it?

Does this work: docker-compose exec db mysql -u <vikunja user> -p<vikunja password> vikunja? (substitute the values from the config)

[rogerBridge]

sir, I did it, and it shows a long text

  -?, --help          Display this help and exit.
  -I, --help          Synonym for -?
  --auto-rehash       Enable automatic rehashing. One doesn't need to use
                      'rehash' to get table and field completion, but startup
                      and reconnecting may take a longer time. Disable with
                      --disable-auto-rehash.
                      (Defaults to on; use --skip-auto-rehash to disable.)
  -A, --no-auto-rehash 
                      No automatic rehashing. One has to use 'rehash' to get
                      table and field completion. This gives a quicker start of
                      mysql and disables rehashing on reconnect.
  --auto-vertical-output 
                      Automatically switch to vertical output mode if the
                      result is wider than the terminal width.
  -B, --batch         Don't use history file. Disable interactive behavior.
                      (Enables --silent.)

  -c, --comments      Preserve comments. Send comments to the server. The
                      default is --skip-comments (discard comments), enable
                      with --comments.
  -C, --compress      Use compression in server/client protocol.
  -#, --debug[=#]     This is a non-debug version. Catch this and exit.
  --debug-check       This is a non-debug version. Catch this and exit.
  -T, --debug-info    This is a non-debug version. Catch this and exit.
  -D, --database=name Database to use.
  --default-character-set=name 
                      Set the default character set.
  --delimiter=name    Delimiter to be used.
  --enable-cleartext-plugin 
                      Enable/disable the clear text authentication plugin.
  -e, --execute=name  Execute command and quit. (Disables --force and history
                      file.)
  -E, --vertical      Print the output of a query (rows) vertically.
  -f, --force         Continue even if we get an SQL error.
  --histignore=name   A colon-separated list of patterns to keep statements
                      from getting logged into syslog and mysql history.
  -G, --named-commands 
                      Enable named commands. Named commands mean this program's
                      internal commands; see mysql> help . When enabled, the
                      named commands can be used from any line of the query,
                      otherwise only from the first line, before an enter.
                      Disable with --disable-named-commands. This option is
                      disabled by default.

                      Don't write column names in results.
  --sigint-ignore     Ignore SIGINT (CTRL-C).

                      default database is the one named at the command line.
  --pager[=name]      Pager to use to display results. If you don't supply an
                      option, the default pager is taken from your ENV variable
                      PAGER. Valid pagers are less, more, cat [> filename],
                      etc. See interactive help (\h) also. This option does not

  --protocol=name     The protocol to use for connection (tcp, socket, pipe,
                      memory).
  -q, --quick         Don't cache result, print it row by row. This may slow
                      down the server if the output is suspended. Doesn't use
                      history file.
  -r, --raw           Write fields without conversion. Used with --batch.
  --reconnect         Reconnect if the connection is lost. Disable with

                      \C and DELIMITER, in non-interactive mode (for input
                      piped to mysql or loaded using the 'source' command).

  --zstd-compression-level=# 
                      Use this compression level in the client/server protocol,
                      in case --compression-algorithms=zstd. Valid range is
                      between 1 and 22, inclusive. Default is 3.
  --load-data-local-dir=name 
                      Directory path safe for LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE to read
                      from.

[kolaente]

Mhh that does not look like it should. Does this work: docker-compose exec db mysql -u <vikunja user> -p vikunja - it should ask you for the db password you have in the docker-compose.yml file.

I can see though you're using mysql 8 which isn't explicitly supported and thus might have issues.

Could you share your compose file?

[rogerBridge]

yes, sir, I am sorry, I face some issue in my real life, I will give it to you
here is:

version: '3'

services:
  db:
    image: mysql:8.0.25
    command: --character-set-server=utf8mb4 --collation-server=utf8mb4_unicode_ci
    environment:
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: supersecret
      MYSQL_DATABASE: vikunja
    volumes:
      - ./db:/var/lib/mysql
    restart: unless-stopped
  api:
    image: vikunja/api
    environment:
      VIKUNJA_DATABASE_HOST: db
      VIKUNJA_DATABASE_PASSWORD: supersecret
      VIKUNJA_DATABASE_TYPE: mysql
      VIKUNJA_DATABASE_USER: root
      VIKUNJA_DATABASE_DATABASE: vikunja
    volumes: 
      - ./files:/app/vikunja/files
    depends_on:
      - db
    restart: unless-stopped
  frontend:
    image: vikunja/frontend
    restart: unless-stopped
  proxy:
    image: nginx
    volumes:
      - ./nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf:ro
    depends_on:
      - api
      - frontend
    restart: unless-stopped

networks:
  default:
    external:
      name: nginx-net

and I have a nginx-server in then same network: nginx-net, and I use nginx webserver as a reverse proxy to visit 'proxy'

[kolaente]

Does this work: docker-compose exec db mysql -u root -psupersecret vikunja` or do you get the mentioned help text output?

The compose file looks correct to me. The error you originally got looks like the mysql container went down at some point but I'm not sure why that might be the case. Anything in the logs?

[rogerBridge]

sir, I try the command: "docker-compose exec db mysql -u root -psupersecret vikunja" and nothing output, I think this is my problem, when I try caddy as a reverse proxy, vikunja works fine, when I try use nginx as a reverse proxy, vikunja works bad, I think something is wrong in my /etc/nginx/conf.d, , I will figure out it and explain it to you, please keep this issue open, thank you sir

[rogerBridge]

sir, I think maybe the permission issue is because I use nginx-proxy-manager, I try just use nginx and put nginx docker and vikunja docker-compose into the same network, it works fine, when I use nginx-proxy-manager and vikunja docker-compose into same network, it works bad, I think maybe some bug in nginx-proxy-manager, but I don't know why, these is not vikunja's issue, sorry : (

[rogerBridge]

maybe just config error in nginx-proxy-manager, but I check it complete, I don't find something is incorrect

[rogerBridge]

I thougth I found why, because I add some container, network-alias is "db", and vikunja's docker-compose has a container name db, so, vikunja-api don't know which db should it dial, haha, I am too stupid, sir

[kolaente]

That's interesting it does that. I though docker-compose would "know" what alias would be valid in what network and make sure there aren't any duplicates. Glad you figured it out!

As this appears to be solved, I'm closing this issue. Feel free to ping me if you have other questions.
