FlowForge instance not running

Support
1

Hi there,
I installed FlowFuse according to official documentation using docker compose as the deployment model.
To install and configure DNSMasq, I use flowfuse ubuntu example:
sudo apt-get install dnsmasq
sudo echo “bind-interfaces” >> /etc/dnsmasq.conf
sudo echo “no-resolv” >> /etc/dnsmasq.conf
sudo echo “conf-dir=/etc/dnsmasq.d” >> /etc/dnsmasq.conf
sudo echo “address=/example.com/172.17.0.1” > /etc/dnsmasq.d/02-flowforge.conf
sudo service dnsmasq restart
sudo echo “DNS=127.0.0.1” >> /etc/systemd/resolved.conf
sudo echo “DOMAINS=~example.com” >> /etc/systemd/resolved.conf
sudo service systemd-resolved restart

Once DNS is well-configured, I download the github project and run ‘docker pull flowforge/node-red’ and ‘docker compose -p flowforge up -d’.
After signing up, when flowforge is opened in the browser http://forge.example.com/, I try to create/run an instance, but Node-RED is stopping for some reason.

Does anybody know how to fix it?
Thanks in advance!

We need to see more of the node-red log from the top image, as it is we can’t see enough of the log to be able to make any comment, as it is things look to be working fine, just a little slow.

It may be that you need to edit the stack (you will need to delete all instances using the stack first) and increase the amount of CPU allocated to the each instance if it’s taking too long to start.

What is the specification of the machine you are running all this on?

ahh, it looks like a Pi 4.

The default is 10%, you probably need 20% on the Pi to run smoothly
