hello

what is the best way to run this software on top of esxi? I have switched from unraid to esxi and I want to continue using your software. currently the best I can think of is to make a ubuntu vm and install portainer on it and install it ontop of that but I feel like there must be a better way

Similar situation here. I solved it recently.

  • Create a VM with 32GB storage and 2GB RAM.
  • Download a minimal 64bit Ubuntu version.
  • Install it (with OpenSSH-server)
  • Create static IP
  • Download docker and git
  • Download docker-compose (portainer is optional)
  • "Git clone Https://GitHub.com/jc21/nginx-proxy-manager.git"
  • Enter folder and edit docker-compose.yml (ports)
  • Enable UFW (SSH, HTTP(s) and take precautions against port and IP issues)
  • Do "docker-compose up -d"
  • Go to http://vm:port and profit
