- MYSQL_DATABASE=orangehrm
```
Once you've pasted in the yaml code, make sure to change the values in angle brackets "<" and ">". You'll want to create your own user, and your own strong password. Make sure the user and passwords match in each section (oragnehrm and mariadb).
Finally, if your chosen host system is already using port 8200, or port 8443, please change the left side of the port mapping only. Never change the right side of a port mapping. The left side port is the port that you'll use to reach the application, and to optionally setup your reverse proxy. In my case I changed the ports to 8280 and 8243 respectively.
Once you've completed all of your changes, save the file with CTRL + O, and press Enter to confirm. Then quickly double check your entries, and make sure there are no errors or odd spacing issues, then exit the nano editor with CTRL + X.
Now back at the prompt, we'll run our command to pull down the images we need, and start up our server containers.
`docker-compose up -d`
Once you see the 'done' message, and are back at the prompt. Wait about 2 minutes, then go to your favorite browser, and navigate to your host machine's IP address, and the port you entered mapped to the container's port 80.
In my case I went to [`http://192.168.10.154:8280`](http://192.168.10.154:8280)
Once here, you'll be prompted to run through the Web Installer Wizard.
1. Select "Fresh Install" if this is your first time running the wizard...if you are updating, select the Update option. Click Next.
2. Agree to the GNU V2 License, and click Next.
3. When you come to the database setup page, you'll want to select 'Existing Empty Database'. Then enter the DB Name as 'orangehrm', enter the user as 'root', and the password you created in your docker-compose.yml file.
The 'root' user is only used by the wizard to create the 'orangehrm' non-root database user, which is then used for all of the application database transactions.
4\. Continue through the Install Wizard to the end. During the Wizard you'll also be asked to create the administrative user for your OrangeHRM install, the company base information, and to confirm all of your settings.
When the wizard completes, you'll be given a button to navigate you to the OrangeHRM login screen. Login using your administrative user, and password you created in the installation wizard.
You are now ready to start configuring your OrangeHRM system. Check out my video for all the details of getting the system configured, new users entered, and leave options setup and assigned to users.
