Fixes redirect issue where application redirects to localhost:3000
instead of server IP when accessed from remote browser.
Problem:
- Accessing http://192.168.1.190:3000 redirects to http://localhost:3000
- NEXTAUTH_URL was hardcoded to localhost in .env
- Remote users cannot access the application
Solution:
1. Create .env.docker with server-specific configuration
- NEXTAUTH_URL="http://192.168.1.190:3000"
- Ollama URL for container-to-container communication
2. Update docker-compose.yml:
- Add env_file: .env.docker
- Loads Docker-specific environment variables
3. Create .env.docker.example as template:
- Document NEXTAUTH_URL configuration
- Users can copy and customize for their server IP/domain
Files:
- .env.docker: Docker environment (gitignored)
- .env.docker.example: Template for users
- docker-compose.yml: Load .env.docker
- .env.example: Update NEXTAUTH_URL documentation
Usage:
On production server, edit .env.docker with your server IP:
NEXTAUTH_URL="http://YOUR_IP:3000"
