What is the recommended way to install rasa-x on a company datacenter vm running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS? I have already developed a basic assistant using rasa open source on the same machine. Thanks ---

@ashishlal Hello, well it depends on the version you want to install? If I give you an idea Rasa X 1.0.X is not compatible with Rasa 3. x yet and it’s compatible with Rasa 2.x. I have installed Rasa X 42.5 using docker-compose and it’s easy to install with rasa open source 2.8.12. **Ref:** [Docker Compose Installation](https://rasa.com/docs/rasa-x/0.42.x/installation-and-setup/install/docker-compose) If you need any further help please mention me @ nik202. ---

@nik202 I installed the latest rasa open source available on pip (version 3.0.4). Which rasa-x version would you recommend? ---

@ashishlal I guess any rasa X version with rasa open source 3.0.4 is not compatible right now (I guess so) and Rasa Team is working on this. I will even cross-check with the rasa team next week. Have a great weekend. ---

@nik202 I get this error when I try to install rasa-x on on-prem ubuntu vm using Docker Compose Installation you suggested (I am also using rasa 2.8.12). I ran “sudo docker-compose up -d” ERROR: for rasa\_nginx\_1 Cannot start service nginx: driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint rasa\_nginx\_1 (4b898c7faf96b7b37800583bdf11880e47c10a0a50ec9f2f12c26c4cdafadef2): Bind for 0.0.0.0:443 failed: port is already allocated ERROR: for nginx Cannot start service nginx: driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint rasa\_nginx\_1 (4b898c7faf96b7b37800583bdf11880e47c10a0a50ec9f2f12c26c4cdafadef2): Bind for 0.0.0.0:443 failed: port is already allocated ERROR: Encountered errors while bringing up the project. ---

@ashishlal I am afraid that installation is not properly done, can you install it fresh? ---

I used this link to install. It works fine. [Rasax: access rasa x with http://\ instead of http://\:8000 - #3 by lao-dja-songdou](http://forum.rasa.com/t/rasax-access-rasa-x-with-http-vm-ip-address-instead-of-http-vm-ip-address-8000/47899/3) ---
