Hi could you share more details? do you run it using start.sh? or just docker-compose?

update .env from

KONGA_ENV=production

KONGA_ENV=development

./start.sh
go to localhost:9000

Already done, I even tried changing the db_names but that didn't work. pastebin.com/wmcHb9Tw

I've notice you're using windows. Did you use wsl? And what terminal are you running? Command prompt?

Ayyappa • Jul 23 '20

I ran with start.sh script
Also what i noticed was the db name needs to be kong always else kong is throwing kong database doesn't exist.

Kelvin • Aug 30 '20

yes, I forgot to mention that in article. thanks man

Brilliant post dude! Your guide is valuable and well written.

Thanks!
