NTOPNG and nProbe in Docker - nProbe Restarting

[vanquishsecurity]

When trying to use the following Dockerfile to install NTOPNG, nProbe, and Redis, nProbe container fails to start .

I am using the official Github for NTOPNG here https://github.com/ntop/docker-ntop/tree/master. (one from Readme without clickhouse) Once the Docker compose up is done installing, I ran the "docker ps -a" and see two nProbe containers running. One says up, one says restarting.

Does the office Docker image ntop/ntopng:stable already include nProbe?

if I dont run the detach and watch the startup, I see the following error

nProbe keeps restarting with error of "[nprobe.c:5572] ERROR: Unable to read config. file nprobe netmon-nprobe_collector-1 exited with code 255"

docker ps

I do not see an directory or nprobe .conf file in the nprobe container. The NTOPNG container has in /etc/nprobe.

docker exec -it 4dcadf54887c ls -la /etc/ntopng

I cant find anything on the web that has a solution.

Hello, i just had the same problem, and i just have to remove the parameter "nprobe" from the "command" line in the compose.yml :

command: ['--zmq', '"tcp://172.30.20.98:5556"', '--interface', 'none', '-n', 'none', '--collector-port', '2055', '-T', '"@NTOPNG@"', '--collector-passthrough']

instead of :

command: ['nprobe', '--zmq', '"tcp://172.30.20.98:5556"', '--interface', 'none', '-n', 'none', '--collector-port', '2055', '-T', '"@NTOPNG@"', '--collector-passthrough']

I know it's been a while that you opened this issue, but if someone else is blocked on this, and if the maintener could correct this too...
