Need help with config - [Errno 98] error while attempting to bind on address

[k9barry]

I am struggling to get mailrise to work with traefik in docker. I am trying to use my domain (changed to mydomain.com for security) and I have pointed my DNS MX to mydomain.com (not sure if the MX record is needed). I try to forward an email from outside my server to [email protected] but the email bounces.

The error from the log shows [Errno 98] error while attempting to bind on address port 8025. I have checked docker ps and none of my other services are using that port.

Any help will be appreciated!

My config file is:

configs:
[email protected]:
urls:
- ntfy://ntfy.mydomain.com/TEST
- pover://user-token-redacted/token-redacted

My docker-compose file is:
mailrise:
image: yoryan/mailrise
container_name: mailrise
labels:
- com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true
- traefik.tcp.routers.mailrise.rule=HostSNI(*)
- traefik.tcp.routers.mailrise.tls=true
- traefik.tcp.routers.mailrise.tls.certresolver=lets-encrypt
- traefik.tcp.routers.mailrise.tls.domains[0].main=mailrise.mydomain.com
- traefik.tcp.routers.mailrise.tls.domains[0].sans=mydomain.com
- traefik.tcp.routers.mailrise.entrypoints=mailsecure
volumes:
- $PWD/data_docker/mailrise/mailrise.conf:/etc/mailrise.conf:ro
restart: unless-stopped
networks:
- internal
- web
-
My Traefik static file is:

[entryPoints]
[entryPoints.web]
address = ":80"

[entryPoints.web.http.redirections.entryPoint]
to = "websecure"
scheme = "https"

[entryPoints.websecure]
address = ":443"

[entryPoints.mailsecure]
address = ":465"`

Logs from my mailrise docker listed below:

I don't have any specific advice to offer, unfortunately. Maybe run a docker ps -a and look for any stopped containers you can clean up. Are you able to run Mailrise without compose?

docker run -it --rm -v $PWD/data_docker/mailrise/mailrise.conf:/etc/mailrise.conf:ro yoryan/mailrise

[k9barry]

Thank you for the response. I will try to run mailrise without compromise and see if that advances me further.

[k9barry]

Getting the same errors when using docker run. Thank you for the suggestions.

I would try once more with an absolute minimal config:

configs:
  test:
    urls:
      - json://localhost

$ docker run -it --rm -v /path/to/my/mailrise.conf:/etc/mailrise.conf:ro yoryan/mailrise -v /etc/mailrise.conf
[2022-12-05 20:03:09] INFO:mailrise.skeleton:Loaded configuration with 1 recipient(s)
[2022-12-05 20:03:09] INFO:mail.log:Available AUTH mechanisms: LOGIN(builtin) PLAIN(builtin)
- snip -

If this doesn't work, I'm afraid I'm out of ideas. Your Docker daemon could be in some kind of weird state.

It's a shot in the dark, but you could also try the yoryan/mailrise:latest-buster image, which is based on Debian Buster instead of Bullseye.
