## Common questions

### Do I need to install the TimescaleDB container before GeoMetrikks?

Yes. Install this database container first, set POSTGRES_PASSWORD, then install the GeoMetrikks app template using the same password.

### Which reverse proxies can GeoMetrikks tail?

It tails access logs from nginx, Traefik, and Caddy.

### How do I support multiple proxies or hosts?

Run one full GeoMetrikks instance plus lightweight agents next to each log file, or tail shipped files from one place.

### Where do I look if a log file is not producing events?

Use the Debug logs page, which shows the raw source lines and calls out parse failures.

### What outbound traffic does GeoMetrikks make?

It downloads GeoLite2 data and, unless disabled, performs a public-IP lookup for the map's home location.
