Xibo with Kubernetes

1

HI,

I’m trying to set Xibo using Kubernetes. It works fine but sometimes i get an SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed error. I’ve tried to add the MYSQL_PORT into the configmap. For now it works but for how long ? I don’t know why this is working sometimes and then no more.

Any ideas ?

Hi Lancelot

Kubernetes is not listed among our supported environments for self-hosted CMS instances

We Highly recommend the setup below,

Supportable Configuration

  • Ubuntu Server 64 bit running on an x86-64 architecture CPU - any current LTS release (20.04, 22.04, 24.04) or the Debian equivalent.

  • Minimum 4GB RAM.

  • Minimum 20GB free storage space (SSD/NVMe ideally), plus however much storage you will need to upload your content to the CMS, and to store any logs and proof of play data you might want to collect.

  • Access to the server running the CMS via SSH/HTTPS or TeamViewer, or TeamViewer access to a workstation with SSH/HTTPS access to the CMS. Access must be possible as the user root or as a user with full sudo permissions to become root.

  • Server must have access to the Internet to download the provided container images.

  • Installation with Docker using the docker-compose files we provide for the CMS installation

  • Optionally (but recommended) an nginx or Apache reverse proxy infront of the CMS handling TLS termination

  • One each of a cms-web, one cms-db, one cms-xmr container, and with memcached enabled

  • No modifications to the contents of the provided containers

  • Any white labelling must be applied by the use of a theme. We reserve the right to temporarily disable the theme to see if a custom theme is the cause of any issues with the CMS

  • Any custom code must be in the form of a separate custom module or middleware. We reserve the right to temporarily disable any custom code to see if it is the cause of any issues with the CMS. Any custom code falls outside the scope of support.

Best regards
