Before you start ONLYOFFICE Community Server, you need to create the following folders:
- For MySQL server
sudo mkdir -p "/app/onlyoffice/mysql/conf.d";
sudo mkdir -p "/app/onlyoffice/mysql/data";
sudo mkdir -p "/app/onlyoffice/mysql/initdb";
- For Community Server data and logs
sudo mkdir -p "/app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data";
sudo mkdir -p "/app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/logs";
sudo mkdir -p "/app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/letsencrypt";
- For Document server data and logs
sudo mkdir -p "/app/onlyoffice/DocumentServer/data";
sudo mkdir -p "/app/onlyoffice/DocumentServer/logs";
- And for Mail Server data and logs
sudo mkdir -p "/app/onlyoffice/MailServer/data/certs";
sudo mkdir -p "/app/onlyoffice/MailServer/logs";
- For Control Panel:
sudo mkdir -p "/app/onlyoffice/ControlPanel/data";
sudo mkdir -p "/app/onlyoffice/ControlPanel/logs";
Then create the onlyoffice network:
sudo docker network create --driver bridge onlyoffice
After that you need to create MySQL server Docker container. Create the configuration file:
echo "[mysqld]
sql_mode = 'NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION'
max_connections = 1000
max_allowed_packet = 1048576000
group_concat_max_len = 2048" > /app/onlyoffice/mysql/conf.d/onlyoffice.cnf
Create the SQL script which will generate the users and issue the rights to them. The onlyoffice_user is required for ONLYOFFICE Community Server, and the mail_admin is required for ONLYOFFICE Mail Server in case it is going to be installed:
echo "ALTER USER 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'my-secret-pw';
CREATE USER IF NOT EXISTS 'onlyoffice_user'@'%' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'onlyoffice_pass';
CREATE USER IF NOT EXISTS 'mail_admin'@'%' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'Isadmin123';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'onlyoffice_user'@'%';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'mail_admin'@'%';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;" > /app/onlyoffice/mysql/initdb/setup.sql
Please note, that the above script will set permissions to access SQL server from any domains (%). If you want to limit the access, you can specify hosts which will have access to SQL server.
Now you can create MySQL container setting MySQL version to 8.0.29:
sudo docker run --net onlyoffice -i -t -d --restart=always --name onlyoffice-mysql-server \
-v /app/onlyoffice/mysql/conf.d:/etc/mysql/conf.d \
-v /app/onlyoffice/mysql/data:/var/lib/mysql \
-v /app/onlyoffice/mysql/initdb:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d \
-e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=my-secret-pw \
-e MYSQL_DATABASE=onlyoffice \
mysql:8.0.29
Use this command to install ONLYOFFICE Community Server:
sudo docker run --net onlyoffice -i -t -d --privileged --restart=always --name onlyoffice-community-server -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -p 5222:5222 --cgroupns=host \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_ROOT_PASSWORD=my-secret-pw \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_DB_NAME=onlyoffice \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_HOST=onlyoffice-mysql-server \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_USER=onlyoffice_user \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_PASS=onlyoffice_pass \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data:/var/www/onlyoffice/Data \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/logs:/var/log/onlyoffice \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt \
-v /sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:rw \
onlyoffice/communityserver
All the data are stored in the specially-designated directories, data volumes, at the following location:
- /var/log/onlyoffice for ONLYOFFICE Community Server logs
- /var/www/onlyoffice/Data for ONLYOFFICE Community Server data
- /etc/letsencrypt for information on generated certificates
To get access to your data from outside the container, you need to mount the volumes. It can be done by specifying the '-v' option in the docker run command.
sudo docker run -i -t -d -p 80:80 --cgroupns=host \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/logs:/var/log/onlyoffice \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data:/var/www/onlyoffice/Data \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt \
-v /sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:rw onlyoffice/communityserver
Storing the data on the host machine allows you to easily update ONLYOFFICE once the new version is released without losing your data.
To change the port, use the -p command. E.g.: to make your portal accessible via port 8080 execute the following command:
sudo docker run -i -t -d --privileged -p 8080:80 --cgroupns=host \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/logs:/var/log/onlyoffice \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data:/var/www/onlyoffice/Data \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt \
-v /sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:rw onlyoffice/communityserver
The container ports to be exposed for incoming connections are the folloing:
- 80 for plain HTTP
- 443 when HTTPS is enabled (see below)
- 5222 for XMPP-compatible instant messaging client (for ONLYOFFICE Talk correct work)
You can expose ports by specifying the '-p' option in the docker run command.
sudo docker run -i -t -d --privileged -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -p 5222:5222 --cgroupns=host \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/logs:/var/log/onlyoffice \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data:/var/www/onlyoffice/Data \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt \
-v /sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:rw onlyoffice/communityserver
For outgoing connections you need to expose the following ports:
- 80 for HTTP
- 443 for HTTPS
Additional ports to be exposed for the mail client correct work:
- 25 for SMTP
- 465 for SMTPS
- 143 for IMAP
- 993 for IMAPS
- 110 for POP3
- 995 for POP3S
sudo docker run -i -t -d -p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/logs:/var/log/onlyoffice \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data:/var/www/onlyoffice/Data onlyoffice/communityserver
Access to the onlyoffice application can be secured using SSL so as to prevent unauthorized access. While a CA certified SSL certificate allows for verification of trust via the CA, a self signed certificates can also provide an equal level of trust verification as long as each client takes some additional steps to verify the identity of your website. Below the instructions on achieving this are provided.
To secure the application via SSL basically two things are needed:
- Private key (.key)
- SSL certificate (.crt)
So you need to create and install the following files:
/app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data/certs/onlyoffice.key
/app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data/certs/onlyoffice.crt
When using CA certified certificates (e.g. Let's Encrypt, these files are provided to you by the CA. When using self-signed certificates you need to generate these files yourself.
sudo docker exec -it onlyoffice-community-server bash
bash /var/www/onlyoffice/Tools/letsencrypt.sh yourdomain.com subdomain1.yourdomain.com subdomain2.yourdomain.com
Where yourdomain.com is the address of the domain where your ONLYOFFICE Workspace is installed, and subdomain1.yourdomain.com and subdomain2.yourdomain.com (and any other subdomains separated with a space) are the subdomains for the main domain which you use.
The script will automatically create and install the letsencrypt.org CA-signed certificate to your server and restart the NGINX service for the changes to take effect.
Now your portal should be available using the https:// address.
Generation of self-signed SSL certificates involves a simple 3 step procedure.
STEP 1: Create the server private key
openssl genrsa -out onlyoffice.key 2048STEP 2: Create the certificate signing request (CSR)
openssl req -new -key onlyoffice.key -out onlyoffice.csrSTEP 3: Sign the certificate using the private key and CSR
openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in onlyoffice.csr -signkey onlyoffice.key -out onlyoffice.crtYou have now generated an SSL certificate that's valid for 365 days.
This section provides you with instructions to strengthen your server security. To achieve this you need to generate stronger DHE parameters.
openssl dhparam -out dhparam.pem 2048Out of the four files generated above, you need to install the onlyoffice.key, onlyoffice.crt and dhparam.pem files at the onlyoffice server. The CSR file is not needed, but do make sure you safely backup the file (in case you ever need it again).
The default path that the onlyoffice application is configured to look for the SSL certificates is at /var/www/onlyoffice/Data/certs, this can however be changed using the SSL_KEY_PATH, SSL_CERTIFICATE_PATH and SSL_DHPARAM_PATH configuration options.
The /var/www/onlyoffice/Data/ path is the path of the data store, which means that you have to create a folder named certs inside /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data/ and copy the files into it and as a measure of security you will update the permission on the onlyoffice.key file to only be readable by the owner.
mkdir -p /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data/certs
cp onlyoffice.key /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data/certs/
cp onlyoffice.crt /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data/certs/
cp dhparam.pem /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data/certs/
chmod 400 /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data/certs/onlyoffice.keyYou are now just one step away from having our application secured.
Please refer the docker run command options for the --env-file flag where you can specify all required environment variables in a single file. This will save you from writing a potentially long docker run command.
Below is the complete list of parameters that can be set using environment variables.
- ONLYOFFICE_HTTPS_HSTS_ENABLED: Advanced configuration option for turning off the HSTS configuration. Applicable only when SSL is in use. Defaults to
true. - ONLYOFFICE_HTTPS_HSTS_MAXAGE: Advanced configuration option for setting the HSTS max-age in the onlyoffice nginx vHost configuration. Applicable only when SSL is in use. Defaults to
31536000. - SSL_CERTIFICATE_PATH: The path to the SSL certificate to use. Defaults to
/var/www/onlyoffice/Data/certs/onlyoffice.crt. - SSL_KEY_PATH: The path to the SSL certificate's private key. Defaults to
/var/www/onlyoffice/Data/certs/onlyoffice.key. - SSL_DHPARAM_PATH: The path to the Diffie-Hellman parameter. Defaults to
/var/www/onlyoffice/Data/certs/dhparam.pem. - SSL_VERIFY_CLIENT: Enable verification of client certificates using the
CA_CERTIFICATES_PATHfile. Defaults tofalse - MYSQL_SERVER_HOST: The IP address or the name of the host where the server is running.
- MYSQL_SERVER_PORT: The port number.
- MYSQL_SERVER_DB_NAME: The name of a MySQL database to be created on image startup.
- MYSQL_SERVER_USER: The new user name with superuser permissions for the MySQL account.
- MYSQL_SERVER_PASS: The password set for the MySQL account.
ONLYOFFICE Community Server is a part of ONLYOFFICE Community Edition that comprises also Document Server and Mail Server. To install them, follow these easy steps:
STEP 1: Create the onlyoffice network.
docker network create --driver bridge onlyofficeThen launch containers on it using the 'docker run --net onlyoffice' option:
STEP 2: Install MySQL.
Follow these steps to install MySQL server.
STEP 3: Generate JWT Secret
JWT secret defines the secret key to validate the JSON Web Token in the request to the ONLYOFFICE Document Server. You can specify it yourself or easily get it using the command:
JWT_SECRET=$(cat /dev/urandom | tr -dc A-Za-z0-9 | head -c 32);
STEP 4: Install ONLYOFFICE Document Server.
sudo docker run --net onlyoffice -i -t -d --restart=always --name onlyoffice-document-server \
-e JWT_ENABLED=true \
-e JWT_SECRET=${JWT_SECRET} \
-e JWT_HEADER=AuthorizationJwt \
-v /app/onlyoffice/DocumentServer/logs:/var/log/onlyoffice \

-v /app/onlyoffice/DocumentServer/fonts:/usr/share/fonts/truetype/custom \
-v /app/onlyoffice/DocumentServer/forgotten:/var/lib/onlyoffice/documentserver/App_Data/cache/files/forgotten \
onlyoffice/documentserverTo learn more, refer to the ONLYOFFICE Document Server documentation.
STEP 5: Install ONLYOFFICE Mail Server.
For the mail server correct work you need to specify its hostname 'yourdomain.com'. To learn more, refer to the ONLYOFFICE Mail Server documentation.
sudo docker run --init --net onlyoffice --privileged -i -t -d --restart=always --name onlyoffice-mail-server -p 25:25 -p 143:143 -p 587:587 \
-e MYSQL_SERVER=onlyoffice-mysql-server \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_PORT=3306 \
-e MYSQL_ROOT_USER=root \
-e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWD=my-secret-pw \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_DB_NAME=onlyoffice_mailserver \
-v /app/onlyoffice/MailServer/data:/var/vmail \
-v /app/onlyoffice/MailServer/data/certs:/etc/pki/tls/mailserver \
-v /app/onlyoffice/MailServer/logs:/var/log \
-h yourdomain.com \
onlyoffice/mailserverThe additional parameters for mail server are available here.
STEP 6: Install ONLYOFFICE Control Panel
docker run --net onlyoffice -i -t -d --restart=always --name onlyoffice-control-panel \
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data:/app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data \
-v /app/onlyoffice/ControlPanel/data:/var/www/onlyoffice/Data \
-v /app/onlyoffice/ControlPanel/logs:/var/log/onlyoffice onlyoffice/controlpanelSTEP 7: Install ONLYOFFICE Community Server
sudo docker run --net onlyoffice -i -t -d --privileged --restart=always --name onlyoffice-community-server -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -p 5222:5222 --cgroupns=host \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_ROOT_PASSWORD=my-secret-pw \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_DB_NAME=onlyoffice \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_HOST=onlyoffice-mysql-server \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_USER=onlyoffice_user \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_PASS=onlyoffice_pass \
-e DOCUMENT_SERVER_PORT_80_TCP_ADDR=onlyoffice-document-server \
-e DOCUMENT_SERVER_JWT_ENABLED=true \
-e DOCUMENT_SERVER_JWT_SECRET=${JWT_SECRET} \
-e DOCUMENT_SERVER_JWT_HEADER=AuthorizationJwt \
-e MAIL_SERVER_API_HOST=${MAIL_SERVER_IP} \
-e MAIL_SERVER_DB_HOST=onlyoffice-mysql-server \
-e MAIL_SERVER_DB_NAME=onlyoffice_mailserver \
-e MAIL_SERVER_DB_PORT=3306 \
-e MAIL_SERVER_DB_USER=root \
-e MAIL_SERVER_DB_PASS=my-secret-pw \
-e CONTROL_PANEL_PORT_80_TCP=80 \
-e CONTROL_PANEL_PORT_80_TCP_ADDR=onlyoffice-control-panel \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data:/var/www/onlyoffice/Data \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/logs:/var/log/onlyoffice \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt \
-v /sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:rw \
onlyoffice/communityserverWhere ${MAIL_SERVER_IP} is the IP address for ONLYOFFICE Mail Server. You can easily get it using the command:
MAIL_SERVER_IP=$(docker inspect -f '{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' onlyoffice-mail-server)
Alternatively, you can use an automatic installation script to install ONLYOFFICE Workspace at once. For the mail server correct work you need to specify its hostname 'yourdomain.com'.
STEP 1: Download the ONLYOFFICE Workspace Docker script file
wget https://download.onlyoffice.com/install/workspace-install.shSTEP 2: Install ONLYOFFICE Workspace executing the following command:
workspace-install.sh -md yourdomain.comOr use docker-compose.
First you need to clone this GitHub repository:
git clone https://github.com/ONLYOFFICE/Docker-CommunityServerAfter that switch to the repository folder:
cd Docker-CommunityServerFor the mail server correct work, open one of the files depending on the product you use:
- docker-compose.yml for Community Server (distributed as ONLYOFFICE Groups)
- docker-compose.yml for ONLYOFFICE Workspace Community Edition
- docker-compose.yml for ONLYOFFICE Workspace Enterprise Edition
For working on Ubuntu 22.04 and Debian 11 or later, you need to use docker-compose versions v2.16.0 or later and uncomment the cgroup line in the yml file
Then replace the ${MAIL_SERVER_HOSTNAME} variable with your own hostname for the Mail Server. After that, assuming you have docker-compose installed, execute the following command:
cd link-to-your-modified-docker-compose
docker-compose up -dTo upgrade to a newer release, please follow these easy steps:
STEP 1: Make sure that all the container volumes are mounted following the Storing Data section instructions:
sudo docker inspect --format='{{range $p,$conf:=.HostConfig.Binds}}{{$conf}};{{end}}' {{COMMUNITY_SERVER_ID}}
where {{COMMUNITY_SERVER_ID}} stands for a container name or ID
STEP 2 Remove the current container sudo docker rm -f {{COMMUNITY_SERVER_ID}}
STEP 3 Remove the current image sudo docker rmi -f $(sudo docker images | grep onlyoffice/communityserver | awk '{ print $3 }')
STEP 4 Run the new image with the same map paths
sudo docker run -i -t -d --privileged -p 80:80 --cgroupns=host \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_ROOT_PASSWORD=my-secret-pw \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_DB_NAME=onlyoffice \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_HOST=onlyoffice-mysql-server \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_USER=onlyoffice_user \
-e MYSQL_SERVER_PASS=onlyoffice_pass \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/logs:/var/log/onlyoffice \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/data:/var/www/onlyoffice/Data \
-v /app/onlyoffice/CommunityServer/letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt \
-v /sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:rw onlyoffice/communityserver
This will update Community Server container only and will not connect Document Server and Mail Server to it. You will need to use the additional parameters (like those used during installation) to connect them.
Or you can use ONLYOFFICE Workspace script file to upgrade your current installation:
bash workspace-install.sh -u true
It will update all the installed components automatically. If you want to update Community Server only, use the following command:
bash workspace-install.sh -u true -cv 9.1.0.393 -ids false -ims false
Where 9.1.0.393 is the number of Community Server version which you are going to update to.
You can now create your own modules and connect them to ONLYOFFICE Community Server. See this instruction for more details.
