Yes, I have been able to use the docker-compose installation using install.sh.

1. Run everything in install.sh except last 3 lines:

> echo “Installing docker role” sudo /usr/local/bin/ansible-galaxy install --force geerlingguy.docker echo “Docker role for ansible has been installed”

* * *

1. sudo su - (become root) then in root@Vega:~/.ansible/roles/geerlingguy.docker/tasks# in **setup-Debian.yml** change **update\_cache** to false.

> name: Add Docker repository. apt\_repository: repo: “{{ docker\_apt\_repository }}” state: present **update\_cache: false**

* * *

1. Also in rasa\_x\_playbook.yml add **.ce**

> - name: Retrieve docker compose to run Rasa X / Enterprise get\_url: url: [https://storage.googleapis.com/rasa-x-releases/](https://storage.googleapis.com/rasa-x-releases/){{ VAR\_RASA\_X\_VERSION }}/docker-compose. **ce**.yml dest: “{{ RASA\_HOME }}/docker-compose.yml” mode: 0766 force: yes when: ansible\_testing is not defined

* * *

Now the given instructions work
