Launch services

You should now have a working configuration file (/etc/elabftw.yml) and can start the services with:

sudo elabctl start
# same as: docker compose -f /etc/elabftw.yml up -d

Install the database structure

After the first start, you must install the database with:

sudo elabctl initialize
# same as: docker exec -it elabftw bin/init db:install
