Odysseus Docker Guide: Compose, Logs, Ports and Health Checks
Separate Docker readiness from app-level failures.
Independent guide. Unofficial. Verify commands against the official Odysseus sources before running them.
Day 1
Odysseus Docker action map
Odysseus Docker guide for Docker Desktop, Compose, ports, logs and container health checks.
Common blockers
- Docker daemon stopped.
- Port 7000 already used.
- Volume or image pull failure.
- Ollama endpoint points at the wrong network context.
Command order
- Clone the official repo first.
- Create explicit environment defaults when the README recommends them.
- Bring the compose stack up once, then inspect status before repeating builds.
What to collect for support
- Docker version and OS.
- docker compose ps output.
- The last 120 Odysseus container log lines with secrets removed.
- The exact local URL that did or did not open.
Last-click answers
Answers for the reason this page gets the click.
These cards turn the common search intent into a concrete next step, so visitors do not need to bounce back to Google for the same blocker.
Docker is running but Odysseus does not open.
A healthy Docker daemon is not the same as a healthy Odysseus app. Check container status, mapped port, first admin password output and the Odysseus container logs before rebuilding.
Next: Run docker compose ps, then read the last Odysseus log lines.
Ollama works on the host but not from Docker.
Inside the container, localhost means the container itself. Host Ollama usually needs a Docker-to-host route such as host.docker.internal plus the matching provider URL.
Next: Open the Ollama page or endpoint tool before changing model settings.
Docker build succeeded, then the container restarts.
Treat this as an app startup or image-entrypoint problem, not a model problem. Capture the first restart error and avoid editing several files at once.
Next: Use the error doctor with a short redacted log snippet.
Editorial basis
Why this Odysseus Docker page exists.
This page is written as a setup decision aid, not a copied README, transcript dump or doorway page.
Official source before shortcuts
Commands, download advice and risk warnings are anchored to the official repository, the official README and visible project behavior before any community shortcut is treated as usable.
What this page adds
It turns the Odysseus Docker search into a specific route: source verification, one setup path, first-run evidence, safe support boundaries and the next internal guide when this page is not enough.
Who should use it
Use it when you need a plain-English decision path. If you are changing source code, packaging releases or reporting upstream bugs, move from this guide to the official source and issue tracker.
When it changes
Update this page when the official install route, default branch, setup scripts, login behavior, model-provider instructions or public-access guidance changes.
Next action
Do this before opening another search result.
Each page now gives a short route from search intent to a concrete setup action, so beginners can keep moving without random command changes.
- 01Prove Docker is runningCheck Docker Desktop or the Linux daemon before reading Odysseus logs.
- 02Start one stackUse one compose path, wait for the build, then inspect container status before changing ports.
- 03Read the app logsUse Docker logs to separate image, dependency, password, database and Ollama failures.
- 04Fix the network boundaryIf Ollama runs on the host, the container often needs host.docker.internal instead of localhost.

FAQ
Fast answers before setup support.
These answers target the common follow-up questions behind the current search query.
A running container can still have an app-level failure. Check the container logs, port mapping and first admin password output.
Inside a container, localhost means the container itself. When Ollama is on the host machine, try the host.docker.internal route.
No. First classify whether the blocker is Docker daemon, image build, port, app startup, login or Ollama endpoint.
