Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 15:57): Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 15:57):Hello! Good afternoon!
Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 15:58):Don wanted me to try and replicate an issue on 6.8
So, I cloned the develop branch and attempted to spin up the docker-compose-dev for 6.8
Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 15:58):There were some issues which I don't think the team could possibly do anything about like MinIO dying and such, which I used some workarounds for
Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 15:58):But, then it started pulling Payara 7 and Postgres 17 for 6.8
Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 15:59):I think this is one of the quirks of using tags like :latest or :unstable
Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 15:59):But, do we want to think about container reproducibility? I just wanted to collect some thoughts
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 29 2026 at 17:23):We're talking about this file at this version, right? https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/v6.8/docker-compose-dev.yml
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 29 2026 at 17:24):image: postgres:${POSTGRES_VERSION}
POSTGRES_VERSION=17 is expected. It's from https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/v6.8/.env
We've been using PG17 in dev for a long time.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 29 2026 at 17:26):Payara should be 6, though, not 7. Specifically <payara.version>6.2025.3</payara.version> according to https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/v6.8/modules/dataverse-parent/pom.xml#L152
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 29 2026 at 17:27):My workflow would be something like this:
Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 17:54):I think this is what caused a Payara 7 pull
"APP_IMAGE=gdcc/dataverse:unstable"
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 29 2026 at 17:58):ah, from .env, yes
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 29 2026 at 17:58):I guess you have to know to build the base image if you're going back in time like that.
Should we document it, at least? :thinking:
Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 18:00):It makes sense to. I kept running into a brick wall.
Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 18:01):Also the note about MinIO too, if its not already documented!
Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 18:01):docker pull fails on everything
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 29 2026 at 18:01):Hmm. Ok. Where would you look for those tidbits?
Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 18:03):Within the container guide, maybe a section named backwards compatability or legacy installs?
Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 18:03):I had to use this for minIO:
docker pull pgsty/minio:latest
docker tag pgsty/minio:latest minio/minio:latest
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 29 2026 at 18:05):Sure, sounds find. Do you want to make a PR?
Ash Manda (Sep 29 2026 at 18:06):Sure! I'll make a PR
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 29 2026 at 18:07):Thanks!
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Sep 29 2026 at 19:00):I just added this to the agenda for Thursday. Please see #containers > meetings.
Oliver Bertuch (Sep 29 2026 at 19:10):Please note that APP_IMAGE is overwritten by whatever Maven has in app.image. If you are spinning up using docker directly, you'd fall into that trap.
Oliver Bertuch (Sep 29 2026 at 19:11):It's really hard to maintain compatibility between both worlds 
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Oct 01 2026 at 18:57):Sorry we didn't get to this today.
Ash Manda (Oct 01 2026 at 19:38):no worries, today's discussions were more important in my opinion
