Invoice Software - Office 365 Or Purchase Software Suite?
-
Still in Limbo over this project...I tried to install the self-hosted Invoice Ninja on Ubuntu but even following the directions here https://www.invoiceninja.com/self-host/ or trying the Docker file, I am running into errors I don't know how to fix (total newbie with Linux)...the "legacy" developer they still insist on using wants to try something in "DreamWeaver" he said.
Oh the fun...

@garak0410 What errors did you see, I'm happy to try help fix it.

Trying the Docker file at https://www.invoiceninja.com/self-host/
When I try docker -compose up, it says docker-compose isn't installed and to try sudo apt install docker-compose. Stuck there...and I am sure it is due to my inexperience with linux commands...
-
@garak0410 Have you tried running sudo apt install docker-compose

Of course he does. That's going to be his retirement guarantee.

sudo apt install docker-compose
Yes...says sudo: app: command not found

docker-compose up
ERROR: In file './docker-compose.yml' service 'version' doesn't have any configuration options. All top level keys in your docker-compose.yml must map to a dictionary of configuration options.I'm sure this is a newbie thing too...

From searching online this error can sometimes be resolved by upgrading your version of docker-compose.

You can check which version you're using by running:
docker-compose version -

Read the recommendations carefully, the alternative steps should be tried first.

That error usually means you have something open like Software Updater or something else needs to be closed.
Just reboot, login open terminal(if using a gui) and then do your
sudo apt-get update
edit forgot this: sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -
Do you have a GUI on this server?

Why the "desktop" version?
Linux has always been designed as a server first, and things removed for the desktop version. If you're using this to host applications, you really should use the "Server" version.

@garak0410 Start over with this ISO.
