Hello, I want to install searxng without using Docker so I basically run the install script. But now i’m struggling with the setup of apache to expose the service. Any help here? Thank you very much
You state that you did use the install script, but also that you want to run it with docker. Did you follow the instructions in their docker repository? It’s quite easy to get it running - they included a complete docker-compose, a Caddyfile and all you need.
Said *without docker
You don’t need to use Apache if that’s confusing you. The project seems to include a full Caddyfile so that’s probably going to be easier for you.
Would like to understand it to customize it a bit and serve the service to a port instead of an URL for example
The service will always be on a port, that’s just how networking works.
Do you mean you want to get rid of the path and serve it on the root? So https://searx.mydomain/ instead of https://mydomain/searx
You can do that with caddy.
You are going to need to provide a significant more amount of information. Like guide are you using, which specific step isn’t working, what error messages are you getting.
edited the original post sorry
What do you want to do? Your explanation isn’t very clear on that…
