Hi there,
I tried to install Xibo on Windows 10 in a Docker (Docker for Windows).
The installation was successfull but after a rebooting the server all media and layout’s are lost.
The checkbox in the shared drives settings in front of “C” is ticked.
The directory C:\users\shared\cms exist and there is some data in it. But the uploaded media isn’t there.
Please help me.
Please see the following page in the manual which describes this (in the Docker for Windows section):
http://xibo.org.uk/manual-tempel/en/install_docker.html
Please note, that at the time of writing, there is a bug with Docker for Windows which means that when your Windows computer is restarted, the CMS will appear to lose all your Media, Layouts and Configuration. Your content is safe! Until this issue is resolved, after a reboot, you will need to manually restart the CMS containers to restore the content. To do so, you would run the following from the PowerShell command prompt:
cd \Xibo-docker
docker-compose stop
docker-compose start
where \Xibo-docker is the directory you’ve installed the CMS in.
cd \Xibo-docker
docker-compose stop
docker-compose start
where \Xibo-docker is the directory you’ve installed the CMS in.
What should I do if this doesent work? My user and media is still lost after executing this powershell commands.
I have the same problem i tried to execute the powershell commands and still is not working, lost data yet
You need to make sure that the drive you have the CMS on is still shared in the Docker settings.
Open the Docker settings, ensure that the drive Xibo is on is shared. If it isn’t tick the box to share it.
If it is, click the Reset Credentials button, and then apply.
Then repeat the PowerShell commands.
Thanks im new in xibo, where is the docker settings?
is a installation with docker toolbox on windows7 64 bit.
Hello Alex I have a problem, I’m here again, I just changed the port in Docker-Compose and to apply changes I did a docker-compose down and then docker-compose up-and again I lost data after restarting, the last time You helped me to add the ** command: --innodb_use_native_aio = 0 ** because the database did not start, the shared folders were not created, any suggestions on what to do?
FYI - docker-compose up would have been sufficient.
Your shared folders should still be in place on the host machine? So I suspect it is just a case of re-sharing your C drive
Restarting the containers manually should fix your issue (after making sure your C drive is shared still in the Docker configuration utility).

It had a lot of DB repairing to do, but it looks like it came up OK?
Not yet, do not create the shared folder and do not save
Where has the shared folder gone? Did you delete it?
docker-compose down will not delete anything on the host machine so I would expect the shared folder to still be exactly where it was.
The instructions for Docker Toolbox are here: https://xibo.org.uk/manual/fr/install_docker_winother_64bit.html are you sure you have followed all the steps?
If your shared folder has gone, I am not sure what to suggest - perhaps Alex will have some insight as he was able to help you before.
Do not delete the folder, in fact I had already had this problem and alex
helped me to fix it, xibo was already working completely, but I had to
change the port I was in, when I did docker-compose down and then up I did
not keep saving my files, then delete the shared folder and reinstalled
xibo from scratch and it does not work, it does not save
When I connected last time, we checked that the shared folder was created and that files were being created in the media library.
Xibo cannot have deleted that shared directory itself, so perhaps you’re in the wrong location? You had multiple sets of docker-compose files from memory before. You have to be in the directory with the shared folder in it already for it to be able to connect to your existing data.
Hi alex, is in the same directory c:/users/xibo, and the shared folder is
the same, the fact is that if the folder is shared in this location, but
after making the port change xibo no longer take it, and now everything new
you do is not saved.
OK, but in your last post you said there was no shared directory and it wasn’t created, and now you say there is a shared directory. So both can’t be true?!
When I changed the port, I noticed that my data no longer appeared, so I
backed up the shared folder and reinstalled xibo from scratch, waiting for
the shared folder to be created again, and it was not created, so I
returned to its place the folder of shared previous and neither reads it,
use the same file of docker-compose that you helped me to modify where you
added the line “command: --innodb_use_native_aio = 0” and I did
docker-compose stop and start, I do not know I have tried several ways of
the forums and it does not work, I am in trouble, I really appreciate your
attention alex.
But if you deleted the shared folder, all your data will have been lost at that point!
I did not erase the data, after changing the port in the docker-compose
file, I did a docker-compose down and then up -d to update the changes and
note that Xibo no longer read my data, so I backed up the shared folder in
another location and proceeded to reinstall xibo again with the same
docker-compose file that you helped me to modify, when everything was
reinstalled it was supposed to create a new shared folder and it did not.
