I have finally found some instructions that I had been looking for till now from @stephenwaite : Blank screen on first start of OpenEMR 5.0.2 - #40 by stephenwaite .
It appears that in my attempts to remember/figure out what needed to be done I have predictably missed out a few steps, namely, after installing docker.io:
- s
udo systemctl enable --now docker sudo usermod -aG docker $USERnewgrp docker
I have now done them and run docker-compose up -d again.
No joy.
I read in the same thread that Apache could be competing for ports, so I commented out port 80 in the docker-compose file. No difference. I have now uninstalled apache2.
Now both http://localhost and http://localhost produce ‘Problem loading page. Secure connection failed’.
