How to stop services in docker installed alfresco

[akash251998]

I had installed alfresco 6.2 using docker installation. But like in case of 5.2 we can stop postgresql and tomcat using the command in root. /alfresco.sh stop. 

Similarly for 6.2 also is there  any step or how to stop postgresql and tomcat for doing any changes in 6.2.

Thanks in advance

You need to use "docker-compose" CLI in order to start, stop, etc. 

You can use to start/stop all containers together by using below command:

To start:

docker-compose -f ./docker-compose.yml up

To stop/shudown:

docker-compose -f ./docker-compose.yml down

Or

You can choose to start/stop a selected container as well.

To stop:

docker-compose -f ./docker-compose.yml kill <containerName>
or
docker-compose -f ./docker-compose.yml down <containerName>

To start:
docker-compose -f ./docker-compose.yml up <containerName>

Here -f ./docker-compose.yml is an optional parameter if you are executing the commands where docker-compose.yml file is located. Else you must provide the file with exact path.

For example: docker-compose -f c:\Alfresco\6.1\docker-compose.yml up

You can always, use "docker-compose help" to know more option for docker compose cli.
