Hi, I was able to download the VirtualBox image for Ambar but ran into some issues configuring it and getting it to work.

I'm putting it on my server behind an Apache web server so it's hosted with a proxypass directive on a custom hostname.

However, it's trying to hit the API on port 8004 with it's IP address, which looks like it's configurable by editing the apiURL.txt file on the container.

However, I can't gain access to the container to edit the apiURL file. Easiest would be the SSH credentials.

Hello @pengc99!

The VM credentials is:

To make it work you need to edit docker-compose.local.yml.

First of all, stop Ambar instance sudo ./ambar.sh stop
Open docker-compose.local.yml and find the following:

 frontend:
    environment:
      api: http://192.168.56.222:8004
    image: repo.rdseventeen.com:443/ambar-frontend:latest
    ports:
    - 80:80
    restart: always

Replace the http://192.168.56.222:8004 with your address.

Start Ambar instance sudo ./ambar.sh start

Hope it helps!

P.s. we'll release docker setup very soon

Thanks! I'll give it a shot when I get home from work.

Any plans to integrate the client completely over port 80/443 so it doesn't try to make API calls over other ports?
