Installation problem

Are you using our SaaS platform (Baserow.io) or self-hosting Baserow?

Self-hosted

If you are self-hosting, which installation method do you use to run Baserow?

docker compose

Docker version 28.3.2, build 578ccf6
Docker Compose version v2.38.2

What are the exact steps to reproduce this issue?

Hello,

I’m new to BaseRow and using Docker.

I have a VPS on OVH. I installed Docker Compose and N8N on it.

I’d like to install BaseRow on the same VPS so I can use it. I’ve already set my custom URL to redirect to my VPS.

To connect to the VPS, I use the Termius software.

I tried following the documentation to install BaseRow on Docker Compose without success because it gives me errors for ports 80 and 443.

So, I removed everything and started from scratch with your advice.

Could you help me install BaseRow correctly?

Thank you very much.

Hi @cheunapan, welcome to the community!

This is likely being caused by a port conflict with n8n or a reverse proxy. Firstly, check what is running on those ports using the commands:

sudo netstat -tulpn | grep :80
sudo netstat -tulpn | grep :443

So we can be sure this is the issue.

You can get around this issue by using a different port when installing baserow. Just edit the yml file and change the ports to 8080:80 and 8443:443 and then access baserow from those prots isntead. (http://your-domain:8080 or https://your-domain:8443)

Hello,

Thank you very much for your reply and help.

Indeed, n8n calls ports 80 and 443.

Do you have a dedicated guide for installing baserow alongside n8n? It seems that simultaneous installation is complex (https://www.reddit.com/r/n8n/comments/1jtdzwa/windows_docker_desktop_localbuild_baserow_n8n/?tl=fr)

Thank you for your feedback.

Sincerely,

Hi @cheunapan, we don’t have a dedicated guide for this but the reddit post you pointed to is pretty much a guide on what needs to be done - which part are you stuck on?
