Redis & Docker socket questions #18343
-
|
I'm new here and was very excited to get Authentik up and running. I'm getting this "Not Found" which can mean anything from not adding a trailing / to a url to I don't know what. Regardless that it's now running, I was shocked to see a docker socket mount into a container that would have full read/write to it. No big deal, I'll read the documentation about it. So yeah, where is this documentation and why isn't it on the Docker installation page? Also, I've read about this "Not Found" issue - mostly users trying one hack or another, switching to different older versions, or going into the container to set a pw and bypass initial config. Good grief. But in the process I see all sorts of mentions of Redis. Did Authentik abandon the use of a cache? Where is the Redis documentation - or at least the documentation saying its been deprecated? |

The docker socket mount is required on the worker container if you want it to be able to deploy and manage outposts. If not, it can be removed and you can manually deploy the outposts. This is documented here. I'll add some notes about this to the docker install documentation. Redis was deprecated in 2025.10 and it's documented here: |
