Docker compose from documenation gives error about website

We can try to reproduce, so might me in triage, but I haven't heard any complains by far.

@ayusharma Are you fine if we close it?

This happens for me running the docker image standalone as well. My method:

mkdir -p $BASE_CONF_DIR/verdaccio/conf
mkdir -p $BASE_DATA_DIR/verdaccio/storage

chown -R 10001:65533 $BASE_CONF_DIR/verdaccio
chown -R 10001:65533 $BASE_DATA_DIR/verdaccio

docker run -d \
  -v $BASE_CONF_DIR/verdaccio/conf:/verdaccio/conf \
  -v $BASE_DATA_DIR/verdaccio/storage:/verdaccio/storage \
  -p 4873:4873 \
  verdaccio/verdaccio

 fatal--- cannot open config file /verdaccio/conf/config.yaml: Error: CONFIG: it does not look like a valid config file

Workaround: Grab one of the default configs from here https://github.com/verdaccio/verdaccio/blob/master/conf/ and place in your /conf mount.

But as I understood it the first run should have populated a default configuration, if none exists?

[ayusharma]

I think we can close it.

I faced the same problem and I resolved it by correcting the file name.

my config file name was config.yml and renaming it to config.yaml solved the issue.

yml to yaml.

Try it out, it might work.

Is this still relevant?
