I’m having some problems installing Vaultwarden and I wonder if it because I’m running docker compose in the wrong way and there are user permission issues.

What is the right way of installing docker compose (on a linux VM)? In in the past I would create a docker folder /home/user/docker. In there I would create the folder firefly or whatever and then I would run docker compose as user. So, when installing firefly, I would be in the /home/user/docker/firefly and run docker compose from within. Not as root (using sudo) but as a the normal user user. Firefly service would just run without problmes. Shoudl I be installing containers this way of shoudl I be using root (sudo)?

    Compose is just a single binary. There is no wrong way to install it really as long as it can find all the needed shared libraries and such.

    If in doubt, look at the manual install instructions. Run through that, and see if it behaves any differently.

    Some logs from the startup of a this container would help. Just run docker compose up (without the -d) and you’ll get all the output up front.
