CSS not showing up on standalone MusicBrainz Server

I followed the instructions at https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-docker and was able to bring up a MusicBrainz server at http://my-ip-address:5000 Everything appears to be working other than the page layout is all broken. It appears that the CSS and the graphics are not loading. I tried this on different systems and in both Chrome and Firefox with the same issue. I brought up the debug tools and clicked on the css through the browser and it could not load.

I then decided to try going the long route and do a manual build following, https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-server/blob/master/INSTALL.md This likewise gave me the exact same results with the layout being broken with no images or css loading.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Hi,

MUSICBRAINZ_WEB_SERVER_HOST should be set to my-ip-address so that the server generates static resources that refers to it, see “Customize web server host:port”.
