Has anyone installed Emoncms in a docer container on and Asustor NAS?  
I could do woth an idiots guide to get it running.  
I have docker and portainer on the nas.  
If I install the openenergymonitor/emoncms fromj the hub it seems to go ok but I get the following when I try to open emoncms in a browser…

I obviously don’y have MYSQL, REDIS, MQTT or PHP installed correctly but I’m not sure where I need to install them. In another container, on the NAS itself or elsewhere?  
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?  
I’m new to Docker BTW 😉
