hi @Mohammad, would recommend using the openemr docker after installing docker for macos

[cyril]

this or either using MAMP

I ended up installing it on windows 10 and XAMPP, however it is awful slow, I tried the demo on your site and it was lightening fast, any reasons?

docker for macos

How do I do this as I am not a coder, it is all a bit confusing.

I am using a Macbook with M2 Chip and MacOS Ventura 13.5.1

Download for Macbook?

Hey there ajaymedic, I wanted to share a quick step-by-step guide on how to install OpenEMR on your Apple M1 Mac using Docker. Docker provides a convenient way to run applications in containers, ensuring a smooth and consistent setup. Here are the steps: Step 1: Install Docker for Apple M1 Head over to the official Docker website for macOS and download the Docker Desktop designed for Apple Silicon: Docker for Apple M1. Follow the installation instructions to set up Docker Desktop on your Ma…

[stephenwaite]

hah, great work on the forum @Thepherm !

your well formatted and detailed replies are inspiring and a role model

Any ideas what this means. This was from step 6

Can you cat docker-compose.yml and put its output here, removing any sensitive data of course, it seems there may be a syntax error in your docker-compose.yml file

Here is an example docker-compose.yml you can also reference

version: '3'
services:
  openemr:
    image: openemr/openemr
    ports:
      - "8080:80"
    environment:
      - MYSQL_HOST=db
      - MYSQL_ROOT_PASS=root_password
      - MYSQL_USER=openemr
      - MYSQL_PASS=openemr_password
    depends_on:
      - db
  db:
    image: mysql:8.1
    environment:
      - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root_password
      - MYSQL_USER=openemr
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=openemr_password
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=openemr

@Thepherm

You can also try running the docker run command directly to bypass docker-compose temporally to verify everything is working correctly.

For the OpenEMR service:

docker run -d \
  -p 8080:80 \
  --env MYSQL_HOST=db \
  --env MYSQL_ROOT_PASS=root_password \
  --env MYSQL_USER=openemr \
  --env MYSQL_PASS=openemr_password \
  --name openemr-container \
  --network="bridge" \
  openemr/openemr

For the MySQL service:

docker run -d \
  --env MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root_password \
  --env MYSQL_USER=openemr \
  --env MYSQL_PASSWORD=openemr_password \
  --env MYSQL_DATABASE=openemr \
  --name db-container \
  --network="bridge" \
  mysql:8.1

interesting,

it seems that the output is incorrect and contains some type of styling text. Try using the code block below if you run into any paste issues try opening the file up with Visual Studio Code.

version: '3'
services:
  openemr:
    image: openemr/openemr
    ports:
      - "8080:80"

      - MYSQL_ROOT_PASS=root_password
      - MYSQL_USER=openemr
