Docker basset storage:link not working

[Read2uk]

hello all,

Just did the upgrade from backpack 5 to version 6.
All my assets are not loading because php artisan storage:link does not run on my docker environment when deploying to prod, so all the assets are 404.

I see basset added a post-install-cmd script in composer.json to run but on deployment I get this then it fails:

@php artisan storage:link --quiet

936 |  
937 | In Connection.php line 829:
938 |  
939 | SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused

What is the best way to fix this issue?

Is there a way to upgrade to backpack 6 without basset? Its causing me more troubles than its worth.

thank you all

also when running RUN composer run-script post-install-cmd:

Hello @Read2uk

What version of "backpack/generators" did you install?

Can you share all versions:

php artisan backpack:version

What kind of server and versions did you run in your docker container?

Cheers.

Looks like very similar problem the one you mentioned.

Looks like if I delete the files from bootstrap/cache then run docker, it builds successfully .

I think its because when I run composer install locally, it installs the --dev scripts from composer.json and then creates the cache files with the dev packages, and when I run the docker file, it runs the composer install --no-dev meaning it won't have the packages on docker but the cache files already has references from dev packages....

Is this normal behaviour?

Also when it builds, looks like the post-install-cmd script to create the storage:link is not functioning properly as I have 404 on all assets from /storage

I feel like the basset its giving me a lot of problems, is there a way to run backpack v6 without the basset or /storage folder mapped to public?

Your "APP_URL" in .env file is correctly set?

Then try to clean with:

php artisan basset:cache
php artisan basset:clear

Or check the issues with:

php artisan basset:check

About your question, basset is disabled by default in local dev, you can check the docs

There are a lot of people who run Backpack in Docker without any issues, I think this issue is more connected to your server config or the way how you upgrade version.

Cheers.

Hi @jcastroa87 I kind of managed to get it working by adding this in the dockerfile:

RUN rm -rf /var/www/html/bootstrap/cache/*.php

Not sure if there is a better solution but this seems to work

thanks for your help
