- My goal: get Retool running on onprem hyper-v VM ubuntu
- Issue: not starting
- Retool version & hosting setup (Docker, K8s, cloud provider, etc.): Docker

Welcome to the community, @Riaan_Roux! Are you able to share any relevant container logs? Assuming you're using Docker Compose, you can run docker compose logs -f or, if you want the logs for just the retool-api container, docker compose logs retool-api -f.
Do you still need help with this, @Riaan_Roux?
Hi there. I managed to get it running not sure what the issue was, but if you can assist me to get ssl installed it would be great. And maybe a nice how to to install it then i can make sure its running like it should
I want to run n8n and retool on same server but need to add SSL cert to be able to access APIs is this possible or do I need a server for retool and another one for n8n
Hi @Riaan_Roux , have you already tried this one?
- Configure SSL and custom certificates | Retool Docs
Once that's done, make sure to set COOKIE_INSECURE to false.
Let us know if you have any additional questions, @Riaan_Roux!
