This guide documents the fixes implemented to resolve authentication issues in the Docker deployment.
The most recent fixes address the syntax error in the Dockerfile:
- Created
production-server.jsdirectly in the repository instead of attempting to generate it in the Dockerfile - Fixed build process to properly handle client and server files with correct directory structure
- Made sure all scripts are properly copied and have executable permissions
-
Database Connection Issue:
- Removed the
@neondatabase/serverlesspackage which was causing connection problems - Updated database client to use standard PostgreSQL connections
- Fixed environment variables in Docker Compose configuration
- Removed the
-
Production Build Issue:
- Created a dedicated production server that doesn't rely on Vite plugins
- Ensured all necessary production dependencies are installed
- Modified the build process to prevent build-time errors
# Build the containers with no cache to ensure fresh dependencies
docker-compose build --no-cache
# Start the services
docker-compose up -d
# Check logs for any issues
docker-compose logs -f# Use the production-specific configuration
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml build --no-cache
# Start the services
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
# Check logs for any issues
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml logs -fYou can verify the database connection is working with:
# Run the database check script
docker-compose exec app node --experimental-specifier-resolution=node check-database.jsIf issues persist:
-
Check the PostgreSQL container is running:
docker-compose ps
-
Verify environment variables are set correctly:
docker-compose exec app env | grep PG
-
Check the database connection logs:
docker-compose exec app node --experimental-specifier-resolution=node check-database.js -
If needed, rebuild without cache:
docker-compose down docker-compose build --no-cache docker-compose up -d
