I’m having a similar issue. I changed to localhost:5000 and I get a “TypeError:NetworkError” the Alan Bonnici writeup… They lost me at QEMU. I have to set up a vm and virtualize an environment to demo this?

I realized port 5000 is blocked by some other service. I got it working by changing the ports 
 
MAIN_URL: "http://localhost:8080" # Base URL for Postiz
FRONTEND_URL: "http://localhost:8080" # URL for the frontend
NEXT_PUBLIC_BACKEND_URL: "http://localhost:8080/api" # Backend API URL
 
MAIN_URL: "http://localhost:8080" # Base URL for Postiz
FRONTEND_URL: "http://localhost:8080" # URL for the frontend
NEXT_PUBLIC_BACKEND_URL: "http://localhost:8080/api" # Backend API URL
and Ports to 
 ports:
      - 8080:5000
 ports:
      - 8080:5000
I agree with the blog article it's confusing for a simple local machine setup.

You don’t need to create a virtual machine for this to work ( although I’ll recommend it ) If you don’t need a machine just follow instructions starting at the docker install It’s basically copy and paste
