Console/root password for SU of docker container?

Graylog Central (peer support)
1

Greetings,

I’m trying to do some network connectivity tests within the docker container itself, and am trying to elevate the console within the container to root so that I can install apt packages temporarily.

I’ve tried su - , and then entering the password i’ve defined for GRAYLOG_ROOT_PASSWORD_SHA2, “admin”, and (blank) to no avail

I at least need to be able to run a ping command from within the container

Does anyone happen to know the password for “root” so that I can run console CLI commands within the container?

There is a whole section on the docker root password here… maybe there is part of a config you are missing?

The password properties specified in it just effect the WebUI Unfortunately.

I should have read that better. :expressionless:

There is a long post here about getting to root on a container, does that help?

Hello,

Adding on to @tmacgbay stated.

A community member had the same problem here

That only seems to effect the password for the webui ,
I may need to fork the docker file and have it install net tools and other packages during the build so that I can do some troubleshooting. Not a priority though as I abandoned the IPVlan idea for the moment.
