Hi all,

I test to install Zentyal using Docker but dpkg displays an error message during the configuration of packets :

aptitude install zentyal

You can download the image of my experiment on Docker Hub drekorig/zentyal4.
To install Zentyal I followed this guide.

Do you have any suggestions of what can prevent the installation of Zentyal on Docker ?

Thank you in advance for your help and sorry for my English.

Do you really want to have it dockerized? It’s a complete gateway solution with dozen different and complex services. It’s definitely not a Docker way (One service - one container).

Thank you for your reply.
Yes, I want to use a single service mails from Zentyal.
You always think this is a poor use of Docker?
Should I use something else like Vagrant?

You might try contacting the guys on this project: https://github.com/openchange/docker

They appear to have at least parts of Zentyal working under Docker.

Drekoring,

do you have any update about Dokenizing Zentyal?
