Dear community,
today I tried deploying traccar via Docker to my HomeServer (Raspberry Pi4).
Regardless of what docker image/tag I use: 5.10-ubuntu, 5-ubuntu, 4.15-ubuntu ...
The container successfully starts, but the webfrontend is not reachable on the exposed port (in my case: 83 -> 8082).
When taking a look at the HOST computers CLI I can see via htop that all four CPU-cores are literally maxed out with JAVA tasks dealing with the traccar.xml.
In traccar.log I see only a single entry:
"INFO : HikariPool-1 : Starting ..."
my default.xml and traccar.xml are absolutely stock and unmodified.
Here is my docker-compose file:
version: "3" # Specify the version of Docker Compose syntax
services:
# Service name: app
app:
image: traccar/traccar5.10-ubuntu # Specifies the Docker image to use for this service. Using the latest version of the traccar image.
container_name: traccar # Name of the container that will be created
hostname: traccar # Hostname of the container
restart: unless-stopped # Restart policy. The container will restart unless it's explicitly stopped.
ports: # Ports mapping from the host to the container
- "83:8082" # Maps port 83 on the host to port 8082 in the container
- "5000-5150:5000-5150" # Maps ports range 5000-5150 on the host to the same range in the container for TCP
- "5000-5150:5000-5150/udp" # Maps ports range 5000-5150 on the host to the same range in the container for UDP
volumes: # Defines volume mounts for the container
- /DATA/AppData/traccar/logs:/opt/traccar/logs:rw # Mounts the logs directory from the host to the container with read and write permissions
- /DATA/AppData/traccar/traccar.xml:/opt/traccar/conf/traccar.xml:ro # Mounts the traccar.xml config file from the host to the container with read-only permissions
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks!
How much RAM does it have?
Hey Anton,
thanks for your quick reply.
The Raspberry Pi4 that I am using has 4GB of RAM. The Server does provide other Services (NodeRED, Grafana, Portainer...) ... however without the Traccar container running CPU load is at approx 20% and the system is using 1,2-1,8GB of RAM... so half the RAM should be still available.
Traccar will only be used to track 3-4 devices so it will not work too hard.
I guess the only way to know what's going on is by getting checking jstack output.
From what I understand: In order to solve the problem we need to gain access to some java debug output, right? Can you guide me on how to achieve that? I am a newbie to docker: I know how to delpoy stuff and orchestrate things with Portainer. However gaining deep insight into containers is something I am not particularilly familiar with. Any help/guidance is much appreciated though.
It would be nice if the containers debug output would be a bit more verbose...
I don't use docker much, so won't be able to help. You can try installing the normal version and see if it helps.
I am running an older version (must be 4.x - the one with the legacy UI) on a seperate Pi natively. It works flawlessly.... However my aim was to consolidate all services to a single Pi to free up some Pi's for other projects!
Since my Homeserver is running Docker and Portainer anyways: Going with with docker seemed to be the way to go. :-)
