Launch STINGAR

With STINGAR downloaded and configured (logged in as the STINGAR user in the stingar directory):

./scripts/compose.sh up -d

This runs docker compose up -d on Docker hosts or podman-compose up -d on RHEL-family Podman hosts.

It can take up to 10 minutes to start the first time. Monitor progress:

./scripts/compose.sh logs -f stingarui

STINGAR is ready when the log output stops scrolling and you see Next.js ready messages.

Enter https:// followed by your STINGAR hostname. With self-signed certificates, accept the browser security warning via Advanced.

STINGAR provides an 'admin' user for the web application (not the Linux login). Set the password on first login.

Congrats! You have successfully installed STINGAR.

Proceed to the User Guide from the STINGAR dashboard (bottom left menu) to deploy honeypots and connect to the shared threat feed.
