I also normally add a php.ini file to the container since JCB is a fairly large component in relation to Joomla.

Here you can read more on that: https://git.vdm.dev/joomla/Component-Builder/wiki/PHP-Settings

PS. note that I have a little bash script to manage all this for me called OctoJoom: https://git.vdm.dev/octoleo/octojoom

Thanks for this. I have not yet delved into comparing your Docker setup to mine. I did already adjust the PHP settings per the documentation. Installing from the file you mentioned got it hooked up to Joomla but I am noticing the languages seem to be amiss, as the menus are identified by their language identifier e.g. COM_COMPONENTBUILDER_MENU.

There was a warning after install:
Copy file failed
Package Install: There was an error installing an extension: joomla__Component-Builder__5.x.zip
danger
Error installing package.

I will certainly explore further according to the instructions you provided, unless you have a quick fix for the new problems.

Are you sure that it's the component at fault? JCB has been the backbone for hundreds of corporate development infrastructures, and while I understand you're having issues, dismissing it entirely based on setup difficulties isn't productive.

I've been working with JCB daily for the past 10 years, alongside many teams worldwide who use it in production environments. We have automated systems that deploy and test JCB on a daily basis, including compiling tests. Rest assured, the component is functioning as expected.

What could be happening is that your system setup has some unique characteristics or configurations that we're not aware of. Instead of saying "the component is not working at all," it would be far more helpful if you could provide detailed information about your environment and the specific steps you're taking. This way, we can work together to identify and resolve the issue.

I think you are taking this too personally. I'm not disrespecting this obviously valuable tool. I've tried it before a few years ago and I was impressed. I'm just stating that the furthest I got was that it almost installed, I saw a bunch of menu items that were just language codes. Later I clicked on them to test things and I got more errors. So the component was not working, as I said.

So in the spirit of what you suggest, here's my current Docker compose file. Thanks again for your help.

For the record, in my attempt to fix the copy error I tried fixing the permissions using AdminTools but it didn't work.
As for the specific steps I'm taking, I simply attempt to install the package file and then I get the copy error.
Copy file failed
Package Install: There was an error installing an extension: joomla__Component-Builder__5.x.zip

Error installing package.

I tried "installing from folder" after that and had the same problem.

Okay I took your docker-composer.yml file and found one error... the JOOMLA_ADMIN_USERNAME

This file just as it is worked perfectly well for me.

Just change the admin_user to adminuser to clear this error from the logs:

MySQL Database Created
[ERROR] JOOMLA_ADMIN_USERNAME must contain **no spaces and be only alphabetical**!
 This server is now configured to run Joomla!

  NOTE: You will need your database server address, database name,
        and database user credentials to install Joomla.

Then I add the JCB package to the install env values with:

JOOMLA_EXTENSIONS_URLS: https://git.vdm.dev/joomla/pkg-component-builder/archive/5.x.zip

And it all worked and installed and compiled... hope this helps.

That username was actually edited by me because I didn't want it public here. I do have a working Joomla running in Docker now. Thanks for checking my docker setup though. That bit about the JOOMLA_EXTENSIONS_URLS is good to know. I have been doing work on my current installation already so I'm hoping I don't have to start from a fresh install just yet.

I am able to install other components by uploading a zip or gzip file, with no error. Are you able to install the package "pkg-component-builder-v5.0.3.tar.gz" using that method?

I found the solution.
According to this article https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62390727/docker-chown-doesnt-work-for-www-data-user-permissions-arent-changing the problem is the volume mounting - the volume preserves the permissions from outside the container; it is inheriting the host user's permissions. I did check that and it seemed that the user was properly set to www-data, but I finally did this then it worked:
chown -R www-data: /var/www/html

Before doing that I had to open up a shell within the docker container. First found the hash for it (f7896c83e0d3) using docker container ls -a then started the shell using docker exec -t -i f7896c83e0d3 /bin/bash. Then did the chown function and installed the component.
