Hi, I used the latest docker compose in github docker compose I use open-core section of docker-compose above. I replaced GRAYLOG\_DATANODE\_PASSWORD\_SECRET and GRAYLOG\_DATANODE\_ROOT\_PASSWORD\_SHA2 as instructed in datanode and graylog section. I spin up using docker-compose up -d It is up in [http://localhost:9000](http://localhost:9000). I login using the password (I tried both value of password as clear text and as hash value) and it still fails. I ssh into the container to check the /run/secret/ and there is no value there. I confused on how to login. Please help datanode: image: “${DATANODE\_IMAGE:-graylog/graylog-datanode:5.2}” environment: GRAYLOG\_DATANODE\_NODE\_ID\_FILE: “/var/lib/graylog-datanode/node-id” GRAYLOG\_DATANODE\_PASSWORD\_SECRET: “gj21DLc1h3M60fYlFZcBFu3QLvDuh6itBb6LozhpO48Yr5GOuN21YpW98isQoWh1rfMbcTT1zgmRiyNxmDsMthlcEs0Y4Uho” GRAYLOG\_DATANODE\_ROOT\_PASSWORD\_SHA2: “d3bcc4ceb0547442ce0695dab9275880f29767de27b26783146be2b68d17207a” GRAYLOG\_DATANODE\_MONGODB\_URI: “mongodb://mongodb:27017/graylog” graylog: hostname: “server” image: “${GRAYLOG\_IMAGE:-graylog/graylog:5.2}” depends\_on: mongodb: condition: “service\_started” entrypoint: “/usr/bin/tini – /docker-entrypoint.sh” environment: GRAYLOG\_NODE\_ID\_FILE: “/usr/share/graylog/data/data/node-id” GRAYLOG\_PASSWORD\_SECRET: “gj21DLc1h3M60fYlFZcBFu3QLvDuh6itBb6LozhpO48Yr5GOuN21YpW98isQoWh1rfMbcTT1zgmRiyNxmDsMthlcEs0Y4Uho” GRAYLOG\_ROOT\_PASSWORD\_SHA2: “d3bcc4ceb0547442ce0695dab9275880f29767de27b26783146be2b68d17207a” GRAYLOG\_HTTP\_BIND\_ADDRESS: “0.0.0.0:9000” GRAYLOG\_HTTP\_EXTERNAL\_URI: “[http://localhost:9000/](http://localhost:9000/)” GRAYLOG\_MONGODB\_URI: “mongodb://mongodb:27017/graylog” ---

I am also facing the same problem, but I installed mine on Ubuntu server! ---

What are y’all seeing? What do the docker logs (or local logs) say? I believe you have to setup the datanode first before you can use graylog and the info about that is in the logs (either via docker logs, or the local log). I just spun up the compose file and this is what i’m seeing: # first time setup ```auto 2024-01-03 19:13:13,046 INFO : org.graylog2.bootstrap.preflight.PreflightJerseyService - --- --- --- ######## ### ######### ########## #### #### --- .---- ---- ############### ###################### ##### #### --- ------------ .----------- -- ##### ###### ##### #### #### #### --- --- --- --- ----- #### #### #### ############ #### #### --- -- --- --- --- ### ### #### ############## #### #### --- --- -- -- -- #### #### #### #### #### #### #### --- --- -- -- .-- ##### ##### #### #### #### ####### --- --- --- --- --- ################ #### ############## ######- -- ---- ---- --- ----- ############## #### ############# ##### ----- ----------- ---------- -- #### #### --- ##### #### #### - .-- ############# #### ----- ---- ###### #### ------- ======================================================================================================== It seems you are starting Graylog for the first time.

Hi Thanks for the reply. I tried your suggestion to run docker logs Then I get to see username & password that are provided; however this is NOT in the README.md thus I kept entering the password that i created using sha (as instructed) and graylog kept refusing me. Thank you for your reply. Please fix the readme ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/graylog/original/3X/1/1/114d8b6a37ece02c323f540dfc91cee6edd76900.png) ---
