Issue

  • I noted that Alpine OS is no longer available in the newer Liferay DXP docker images, they use Ubuntu instead
  • I would like to know if Liferay plans to include Alpine OS again

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.0+

Resolution

  • Liferay does not plan to have the official docker images recompiled with Alpine OS
  • We have migrated over to Ubuntu as an earlier Elasticsearch update caused it not to start up on Alpine (it is also not a supported distribution by Elasticsearch)
