5	5	* You have sudo rights on the machine where you're trying to install the XWiki server on
6	6	* This machine already has docker fully installed and properly configured on it. Please perform a test installation of any random image from docker hub to ensure that everything works appropriately
7	7	* You already own and are in control of a domain name for which you wish to make the XWiki server accessible through. This domain name is already pre-configured to point to the server that you wish to install XWiki on. In my particular case, I already have pentilescu.com configured to point to my VPS and, what I wished to accomplish was to have a subdomain via which I could access XWiki. In this particular case, this subdomain was wiki.pentilescu.com. To that end, you must have nginx also configured and running on the same server in the background, to have it redirect connections whose destination is a specific port to a subdomain
8		-* Finally, you must have an SMTP email server running somewhere accessible to the docker instance. XWiki will need to use this server to relay account activation emails as well as password reset emails to its users

134	134	Please replace <database_password> and <mysql_root_password> with randomly generated long strings, preferrably containing a long sequence of lowercase, uppercase letters, digits and symbols. In my case, I chose 12 character long sequences for each of them. It's unlikely for a hacker to compromise your docker environment but it's still best practice to make the passwords as long and hard to guess as possible, as an extra layer of security.

159	159	For the time being, press the "Later" button on the dialog (not the "Never" one!) and then run a "docker-compose down" to stop the container from running. The first test run was a success! Congratulations!

163	163	We assume you already have Nginx installed and properly configured on your machine. Also, we will assume you have an X.509 certificate whose Subject Alt Names includes both your domain name, as well as the subdomain for your wiki (i.e. in my case for pentilescu.com and wiki.pentilescu.com, respectively) and you've configured Nginx to utilize both of them! If this is not the case or you're unsure how to perform these configurations, please check the internal "How to setup an Nginx reverse proxy and also provide a global X.509 certificate for it" guide at the bottom of this page.
