How do I log in to BookStack?

Apps 108 views Markdown
  1. In the panel, open My servers and click your server.
  2. On the Overview tab, wait for the App row to say "BookStack is ready". The page refreshes itself.
  3. Click Open app.
  4. Log in with the details from the Email and Password rows. There is no setup screen.
  5. In your profile, update your email address. The install uses a placeholder address.

Further down the page, the Username row and the Password row below it are for SSH. Don't use them to log in to BookStack.

Good to know

  • The interface starts in Turkish.
  • BookStack doesn't send email yet. For invitations and password resets, add mail settings such as MAIL_HOST to /opt/seturack/bookstack/compose.yaml.
  • The site opens over HTTPS on a free sslip.io address based on your IP. If a certificate can't be issued, it opens over http:// instead. Only ports 80, 443 and 22 (for SSH) are open to the outside.

To use your own domain, see this article.

No server yet? Order a server with BookStack installed: you choose the size and pay for what you choose.
