Containers keep restarting and cant connect to mysql

Hello everyone, I’m trying to run “tutor local launch” but I’m having problems to connect at mysql.

I runned the mysql container solo, using docker run and it didnt restarting and i’ve got connect in mysql using DBeaver. So, I think i cant connect because the containers keeps restarting.

I have the same project in a VM and there i have no problems , i dont know why in my pc it doesnt work.

Tutor logs mysql:

Did you upgrade an existing installation or launch a new platform from scratch?

I have the same problem after upgrading to palm

I am facing the same issue in a fresh install of tutor 15 (olive):

pip freeze | grep tutor
tutor==15.3.8
tutor-android==15.0.0
tutor-cairn==15.0.6
tutor-contrib-codejail @ git+https://github.com/edunext/tutor-contrib-codejail@0de72c65d6032cdb536cf13e757cea95f3f3874c

tutor-mfe==15.0.4
tutor-minio==15.0.0
tutor-notes==15.0.0
tutor-webui==15.0.0
tutor-xqueue==15.0.0

I have followed the steps at Troubleshooting — Tutor documentation, and also pruned all docker containers and volumes and restarted everything but I always encounter this issue.

@JulioLeal @martibosch
It does feel like the real issue is the amount of free memory dedicated to the running instances. I guess that it’s the original “scalable” version of the system which is assumed to run with containers orchestration (kubernetes), so it’s supposed to run each docker image in separate virtual machine. I have the same problem and it looks like I just need to increase the allocated memory.

Or someone solved this in another way?
