First time using Azure.

I have the following docker-compose.yml (some values X’d here for security)

version: '2'
services:
  mariadb:
    image: docker.io/bitnami/mariadb:10.6
    environment:
      - MARIADB_USER=bn_moodle
      - MARIADB_PASSWORD=XXXXX
      - MARIADB_ROOT_PASSWORD=XXXXX
      - MARIADB_DATABASE=bitnami_moodle
      - MARIADB_CHARACTER_SET=utf8mb4
      - MARIADB_COLLATE=utf8mb4_unicode_ci
    volumes:
      - 'mariadb_data:/bitnami/mariadb'
  moodle:
    image: docker.io/bitnami/moodle:3
    ports:
      - '80:80'
      - '443:443'
    environment:
      - BITNAMI_DEBUG=true
      - MOODLE_DATABASE_HOST=mariadb
      - MOODLE_DATABASE_PORT_NUMBER=3306
      - MOODLE_DATABASE_USER=bn_moodle
      - MOODLE_DATABASE_NAME=bitnami_moodle
      - MOODLE_DATABASE_PASSWORD=XXXXX
      - MOODLE_DATABASE_ROOT_PASSWORD=XXXXX
      - MOODLE_SITE_NAME=XXXXX
      - MOODLE_USERNAME=XXXXX
      - MOODLE_PASSWORD=XXXXX
    volumes:
      - 'moodle_data:/bitnami/moodle'
      - 'moodledata_data:/bitnami/moodledata'
    depends_on:
      - mariadb
volumes:
  mariadb_data:
    driver: local
  moodle_data:
    driver: local
  moodledata_data:
    driver: local

This docker-compose yml file works locally and on an AWS linux server that I can ssh into.

However, I am trying to provide this to Azure "Web App for Containers" service.

enter image description here

The main question I have is what is the purpose of this part of the setup wizard?

enter image description here

The options are docker hub, azure container registry, and private registry.

The images I want to deploy though are part of bitnami. They have a name like docker.io/bitnami/mariadb:10.6. How can I ensure that when I run this service the images will be able to download.

If I choose either the Docker Hub option or the Azure option and upload my YML file, no errors appear but also the app is not reachable at the provided URL. It just hangs on black screen forever in browser.

Note I am aware that you can spin up a moodle VM on Azure in other ways, the point of this is to try and learn about the "Web App for Containers" service.

Once created here are the options I see in the menu:

  1. In the compose file, simply refer to bitnami/mariadb:10.6. You don’t have to specify docker.io.

    Also note that depends_on is ignored and there’s no need to specify port 443 as App Service does TLS termination.

  2. i may be wrong but i think it won’t work simply because there’s a compatibility problem when it come to Docker-compose (preview) port, by that i mean that the only port that will work should either be 80 or 8080.
