Copy live WordPress Site and Run inside Docker container

I am going to copy this site and run inside Docker Container.

STEPS

1-Pull WordPress and MySQL images using docker-compose, I am going to use docker-compose file.

version: '3.7'

services:
  db:
    # If you really want to use MySQL, uncomment the following line
    image: mysql:8.0.27
    command: '--default-authentication-plugin=mysql_native_password'
    container_name: wp-db
    volumes:
      - ./data/wp-db-data:/var/lib/mysql
    networks:
      - default
    restart: always
    environment:
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: supersecretpassword
      MYSQL_DATABASE: db
      MYSQL_USER: dbuser
      MYSQL_PASSWORD: dbpassword

  wordpress:
    depends_on:
      - db
    image: wordpress:latest
    container_name: wordpress
    environment:
      WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: db:3306
      WORDPRESS_DB_NAME: db
      WORDPRESS_DB_USER: dbuser
      WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: dbpassword
    volumes:
      - ./data/wp-content:/var/www/html/wp-content
      - ./data/wp-html:/var/www/html
    networks:
      - traefik-public
      - default
    restart: always
    labels:
      - "traefik.enable=true"
      - "traefik.http.routers.wordpress.entrypoints=http"
      - "traefik.http.routers.wordpress.rule=Host(`wp.dk.tanolis.com`)"
      - "traefik.http.middlewares.wordpress-https-redirect.redirectscheme.scheme=https"
      - "traefik.http.routers.wordpress.middlewares=wordpress-https-redirect"
      - "traefik.http.routers.wordpress-secure.entrypoints=https"
      - "traefik.http.routers.wordpress-secure.rule=Host(`wp.dk.tanolis.com`)"
      - "traefik.http.routers.wordpress-secure.tls=true"
      - "traefik.http.routers.wordpress-secure.service=wordpress"
      - "traefik.http.services.wordpress.loadbalancer.server.port=80"
      - "traefik.docker.network=traefik-public"

volumes:
  db-data:
    name: wp-db-data

networks:
  traefik-public:

3-Open container wordpress site and install “All-in-One WP Migration” plugin.

4-Go to source wordpress site and install “All-in-One WP Migration” plugin.

5-Create a File backup on source site.

6-Try to restore backup on target site

7-You will see following error;

<<ERROR>>

Increase size for All in one plugin;

8-We need to increase restore size. Search for .htaccess file in your linux root file system;

# find / -type f -name .htaccess*

9-Use nano editor to open this file;

# nano .htaccess

place the following code in it after # END WordPress commentd line:

php_value upload_max_filesize 2048M
php_value post_max_size 2048M
php_value memory_limit 4096M
php_value max_execution_time 0
php_value max_input_time 0

10-Save file. Open plugin and you will see that you are allowed to restore 2GB data.

11-Open WordPress container site. Do a comparison with online site.

Congratulations! You’ve done it. You can now easily import any file you’d like using this amazing plugin. Migrating your sites are not a hassle anymore!
