Hello everyone ,
I’m seeking assistance with an issue I’m encountering while making backend changes. Despite my efforts, the changes aren’t reflecting as expected. Any guidance or support would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi @ravi . if you are making any changes in the backend Java Source code then you should follow these steps for changes to reflect
- Run the maven build again to re-build the War file
mvn clean install -DskipTests
- Recreate the Openelis webapp container
docker-compose -f dev.docker-compose.yml up -d --no-deps --force-recreate oe.openelis.org

Just wanted to ask while recreating Openelis-webapp container should I stop the other containers entirely and then use the command or just stop the webapp container and then run the command while not stopping other containers.

Hey @Prajjwal_Kohli better stop all the containers and recreate the openelis-webapp container and give all containers a fresh start. Because [openelis-webapp container] is main backed operations heavy container.

Hey @Prajjwal_Kohli I think better will be to stop other containers otherwise it may show error that port is already occupied. I have faced this issue. So i’ll suggest to just stop other containers then re-create Openelis-webapp container.
