How to Install Muximux on OMV and Docker

In this video we’ll take a look at How to Install Muximux on OMV and Docker.

Muximux is a lightweight portal to view & manage your webapps without having to run anything more than a PHP enabled webserver.

Install Muximux

For this install we’ll use another LinuxServer.io stack from the Docker website.

---
version: "2.1"
services:
  muximux:
    image: linuxserver/muximux
    container_name: muximux
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
    volumes:
      - path to data:/config
    ports:
      - 80:80
    restart: unless-stopped

There isn’t much to change here, but you’ll want to change the PUID, PGID, TZ (Time Zone), the volume, and (probably) the port.

Because you’ve already got something running on port 80, you’ll want to change that to a port that isn’t being used. Your port entry might look like this:

- 1234:80

Once you’ve done that, you can click “Deploy the Container” and give it a bit to do its thing in the background.

Setup

When the container is loaded and ready to go, you can go to your server’s IP address and the port you put the container on: http://your-server-address:1234 and the page should load up with a bunch of included links on the dashboard.

Go to the bottom left where the gear icon is and click it. You can then go in and edit each of the entries. Or you can scroll to the bottom of the page and remove all the entries and start fresh.

You’ll need to enter each of your service names and addresses in the respective fields. You can also add icons and colors if you want as well.

Side Note

Some applications will have security in place that will keep them from being loaded in an iframe. For some applications, there’s nothing you can do about that. For others, like qBittorrent, you can change a setting that will allow for the application to run in an iframe. You’ll need to do some research for any application you want to use to make sure it can be run in an iframe and whether or not it has a setting that will keep it from doing so.
