Troubleshooting Storefront Start Issues on Saleor Platform

Setting up a storefront on the Saleor e-commerce platform can be an exciting adventure for developers. However, encountering issues with starting the storefront can turn that excitement into frustration. If you’re wondering why your Saleor storefront won’t start even after setting up Docker and following all guidelines, you’re not alone. This guide will guide you through resolving this issue with a specific configuration fix.

The Problem: Storefront Won’t Start

After successfully deploying the Saleor platform and ensuring that all components are running smoothly, you may still struggle with starting the storefront. The log output might show you relevant information, but it can often feel overwhelming, leaving you unsure about the next steps to take. Here is a common output that indicates the problem:

Project running but frontend fails to launch

Browser returns errors like "404" and "EnvironmentPlugin - GTM_ID environment variable is undefined"

The Solution: Updating the Docker Configuration

The good news is that fixing this issue often requires a small change in your Docker configuration, specifically in the docker-compose.yml file. Here’s how to approach the solution step-by-step:

Step 1: Locate the docker-compose.yml File

Navigate to your project directory and find the docker-compose.yml file. This file defines how the containers are configured and run together.

Step 2: Identify the Current Command

Within the storefront service definition in your docker-compose.yml, you will find a section labeled command that is currently configured like this:

If you're still facing issues after trying this solution, consider checking other configurations or consulting the Saleor documentation for advanced troubleshooting tips.

Now, you should be able to see your storefront running correctly and seamlessly serve your e-commerce environment. Happy coding!
