Our images support multiple architectures such as `x86-64`, `arm64` and `armhf`. We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker [here](https://github.com/docker/distribution/blob/master/docs/spec/manifest-v2-2.md#manifest-list) and our announcement [here](https://blog.linuxserver.io/2019/02/21/the-lsio-pipeline-project/).
This image provides various versions that are available via tags. `latest` tag usually provides the latest stable version. Others are considered under development and caution must be exercised when using them.
| Tag | Description |
| :----: | --- |
| latest | Currently using Ubuntu base images. Will be moved to the Alpine base in the near future. |
If you didn't set a password during installation, (see logs for warning) use
`mysqladmin -u root password <PASSWORD>`
to set one at the docker prompt...
NOTE changing the MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD variable after the container has set up the initial databases has no effect, use the mysqladmin tool to change your mariadb password.
NOTE if you want to use (MYSQL_DATABASE MYSQL_USER MYSQL_PASSWORD) **all three** of these variables need to be set you cannot pick and choose.
Unraid users, it is advisable to edit the template/webui after setup and remove reference to this variable.
Find custom.cnf in /config for config changes (restart container for them to take effect)
, the databases in /config/databases and the log in /config/log/myqsl
### Loading passwords and users from files
The `MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD MYSQL_DATABASE MYSQL_USER MYSQL_PASSWORD REMOTE_SQL` env values can be set in a file:
Docker images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate `<external>:<internal>` respectively. For example, `-p 8080:80` would expose port `80` from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port `8080` outside the container.
For all of our images we provide the ability to override the default umask settings for services started within the containers using the optional `-e UMASK=022` setting.
Keep in mind umask is not chmod it subtracts from permissions based on it's value it does not add. Please read up [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umask) before asking for support.
When using volumes (`-v` flags), permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container, we avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user `PUID` and group `PGID`.

We publish various [Docker Mods](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-mods) to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) as well as universal mods that can be applied to any one of our images can be accessed via the dynamic badges above.
* **26.01.19:** - Add pipeline logic and multi arch.
