Before proceeding please note that Dply services are no longer available
We’ve covered installing Docker on Dply.co in a previous post, this post will be a follow on to this post and we’ll use Docker containers to install WebMail Lite Docker container on dply.co
This post will be an introduction to deploying web applications on dply.co using Docker containers, please note that the free tier of dply.co is only for 2 hours so you should only use it for trial purposes, of course, you can always pay to make it a production version.
Step One
Follow the first post to create an account and install Docker.
Step Two
In the terminal window, we’ll need to install Docker compose using the following command;
docker run -it -p 8080:80 afterlogic/docker-webmail-lite
Step Three
You’ll then be prompted by an error message, just ignore it
Step Four
After the installation process is complete, you can log to your container from the browser using your IP address that you can get from your Dply dashboard e.g. (http://machine_IP:8080/adminpanel).
Step Five
You should be directed to your admin panel, just use username: user and password; 12345
Step Six
Finally, create the database for your installation from the following window, then click on the “save” tab.
Congratulations, you’ve successfully installed a Webmail Lite container on Dply.
