Once the image gets downloaded, click on the icon Create container to create the container, the wizard will ask you the parameters, be sure to give the container name's logicaldoc-db:
Configure the working parameters
Open the Advanced Settings and with the Add button set the following parameters:

| MARIADB_USER | ldoc | username used by LogicalDOC to connect to the database |
| MARIADB_PASSWORD | changeme | password used by LogicalDOC to connect to the database |
Map the ports
Open the Network tab and map the Container Port 3306 to the Host Port 3386.
Check the running container
At the end, you should see the logicaldoc-db container up and running in the Container area:
Set up the LogicalDOC container
After setting up the database, you proceed now to set up the container of the LogicalDOC application.
Open the Images tab of the Container Station interface, here click on the Pull button and download the latest logicaldoc/logicaldoc image from Docker Hub.
Once the image gets downloaded, click on the icon Create container to create the container, the wizard will ask you the parameters, be sure to give the container name's logicaldoc:

Map the ports
Open the Network tab and map the Container Port 8080 to the Host Port 1280 and the 22 to 1222:
Map the volumes
We suggest creating a dedicated folder called logicaldoc somewhere in your NAS and then the subfolders logicaldoc/conf and logicaldoc/repository
Then open the Shared Folders tab and map those folders to the LogicalDOC's volumes /LogicalDOC/conf and /LogicalDOC/repository:
The volume /LogicalDOC/conf is where LogicalDOC saves the main configuration files, while the /LogicalDOC/repository is where your documents files are stored.
Check the running container
At the end, you should see the logicaldoc container up and running in the Container area:
At this point you should be able to enter LogicalDOC at http://IP_OF_YOUR_QNAP:1280 with admin as username and password
