[Bug] first instance good. 2nd instance not responding? #307
Description
Current Behavior
I assume I can run the docker command again changing the container name and the ports. I changed the web port for the 2nd one to 5808. The logs show 5800 in places and 5808 in other places. This is running remotely on a VPS on the internets
Expected Behavior
