Is this the right place to file bug reports? I was able to get ignition 8.3beta-2 running on my ARM Mac with a direct install, but when pulling the docker image and running it, it hangs on the `Ignition Gateway is Starting` page. Repro steps: `docker pull inductiveautomation/ignition:8.3.0-beta2` `docker run -d -p 9088:8088 --name ignition-test inductiveautomation/ignition:8.3.0-beta2 ` `-n docker-test -a localhost -h 9088 -s 9043` ![Screenshot 2025-08-06 at 5.12.55 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/f/b/fbfcc219e39586b356f2ad0ef7575e3def937617.png) ---

Can you share the gateway logs? ---

Did a fresh attempt this morning. Here’s the result of `docker logs ignition-test`. Not seeing any obvious errors, but it the whole thing ran for 20+ mins and is still “Starting” [ignition-test-logs.txt](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/uploads/short-url/5aYEa6io5POIZEs1GD8k2B17VEi.txt) (54.5 KB) Is there another place I can look at for more detailed logs? ---

You’ll need to get a terminal in the container as root, then install a JDK and use jps/jstack to get a thread dump of the “WrapperSimpleApp” pid: ```python kevin@DV-55J5DY3-LT:~$ docker exec -it -u root aa38ff98785470f33833d798dba0d13dec471cd653e6eaaba58c294e19ac8569 /bin/bash root@aa38ff987854:/usr/local/bin/ignition# apt-get update && apt-get install openjdk-17-jdk root@aa38ff987854:/usr/local/bin/ignition# jps 6135 Jps 91 WrapperSimpleApp root@aa38ff987854:/usr/local/bin/ignition# jstack 91 ``` (while it’s stuck at this spot in the logs) ---

Also, can you provide the output from `docker version` ? ---

It eventually started, but only somewhat. Got me to the main gateway page, Perspective and some other stuff didn’t load. After a little while it went back to the Gateway is Starting page. The direct install of 8.3-beta2 is running with no issues on the same machine. ---

Thank you for providing this. It looks like you’re using [colima](https://github.com/abiosoft/colima) for Docker on macOS. Admittedly, I hadn’t used colima before but I took it for a quick spin on my M2 Max MBP here and everything seems to work as expected, with the gateway starting up in ~12 seconds. Just one more piece of information gathering if you wouldn’t mind: ```bash colima status && colima list ``` Even with the fairly minimal defaults of 2 vCPUs and 2GiB of RAM, a single gateway container seems to launch alright. I captured a brief snippet of my testing with Colima, fwiw: ![SCR-20250807-ntht](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/2/d/2d711bee67ea9fb25ee20beb49f97131a7e91adb.png) You’d definitely need to adjust those defaults if you’re running multiple containers to avoid slowdowns. ---

Oh man 🤦. It didn’t even occur to me that colima itself might be the bottleneck. I’m running a small k8s cluster on the same machine too. Increased to 4cpu and 8gb memory, and the gateway started instantly with no issues. I should have realized when the docker commands were taking so long. Thanks a lot!
