Cannot deploy Ngrok docker image

getting this error when trying to deploy a Render server with this Ngrok Docker image

I have the “Docker command” section filled out with this

docker run --net=host -it -e NGROK_AUTHTOKEN=xxxxxxxxxx ngrok/ngrok:latest http 80

Hi there,

You don’t use docker commands directly on Render. Our documentation for using Docker on Render can be found here: https://docs.render.com/docker. If you want to run Ngrok’s prebuilt image, then you should read this part of the documentation: https://docs.render.com/deploy-an-image.

Thanks Keith,

the documentation is not really helpful though. I followed the exact steps in “Deploy from a registry”, and still experiencing errors.

  • I am trying to use a public image: https://hub.docker.com/r/ngrok/ngrok
  • I create a new web service using this public image, and clicked “Create”. According to the documentation, that’s all that’s needed – “You’re done! Render pulls the image from the registry and kicks off the service’s initial deploy.”
