Is there any guide to deploy kobweb on azure virtual linux, i tried myself but not able to, even listening to port 8080 but not able to access it from the public IP(Ports are allowed by the firewall)

[David Herman]

No guide for azure at the moment. Just render via docker

Means Render is the only way?

[David Herman]

Oh no not at all

[David Herman]

Just it's the only guide

[David Herman]

Kobweb is just ktor

[Anant Kumar Gupta]

I thought at least I could run as a development mode in linux server to explore all these things

[David Herman]

There's no reason it shouldn't work.

[David Herman]

Maybe look online for how to run a ktor server on Azure?

[David Herman]

Try running a dummy ktor server in your environment and if that works, then next thing you need to do is kobweb export --env prod your site and then, after exporting, run ./kobweb/server/start.bat (if windows) or start.sh (if linux)

[Anant Kumar Gupta]

I was trying with docker also but it failed at the line of kobweb export --notty inside the dockerfile

[Anant Kumar Gupta]

And Kobweb export --env prod getting error of, Error:no such option : "--env"

[Anant Kumar Gupta]

Thanks, i found the solution. In case if i will have any doubt i will ask....:)

[David Herman]

You only need the env parameter when running Kobweb

[David Herman]

There's no such thing as a dev export in other words
