Try getting a new Portainer Token
and putting it in the OliveTin for Channels Stack Environment variables here
PORTAINER_TOKEN=
Then Update the stack
Okay updated the token and updated stack, but getting this now
JSON response from http://192.168.7.109:9000/api/stacks/create/standalone/string?endpointId=2:
{"message":"Unable to find an environment with the specified identifier inside the database","details":"Object not found inside the database (bucket=endpoints, key=2)"}
false
Did you set up an additional environment beyond the usual "Local"?
What do you see when you first login to Portainer? Please post a screenshot.
@mexicanmamba When you first login to Portainer, and you hover over the "Local" environment, what do you see in the lower left corner?
It looks like you maybe created another environment and then deleted it? If you look at the URL in the lower left of the screenshot you posted the "Local" environment has an ID of 3 -- and I've never seen that before, it's always 2. Any thoughts on how that might have happened?
I am not sure, can I delete and redo the stack?
It shouldn't be too difficult for me to create an override ID for the "Local" environment (e.g. to use 3 instead of 2) -- just in case this comes up again. I'll do that in the AM and publish an update tomorrow.

Thank you and for Organizr port 80 is being used can I assign any other number?
I am doing it from the container manager
version: '3.9'
services:
organizr:
image: organizr/organizr:latest
container_name: organizr
hostname: organizr
ports:
- 79:79
environment:
- PUID=nobody
- PGID=nobody
- TZ=US/Arizona
volumes:
- /volume1/docker/organizr/data/organizr:/config
restart: unless-stopped
Don't change the container-side port -- that stays at 80. Plus 81 is more common as an alternate. So, I'd suggest:
ports:
- 81:80
@mexicanmamba OK, so I've added support for a Portainer Environment ID other than 2. Update to the :latest (:2025.02.21), and use PORTAINER_ENV=3.
Here's an updated OliveTin-for-Channels Docker Compose:

Assuming you're successful, I'll make this the new standard Docker Compose for this project.
Sorry about that. While the zip_code variable didn't do anything anymore, the startup code still required it. But the latest mlbserver update removed the variable entirely, so you could once again remove it from your Docker config if you like. 
I am trying to do the one-click Frndly TV install, but I am getting this error:
JSON response from http://192.168.29.131:9000/api/stacks/create/standalone/string?endpointId=2:
{"message":"Unable to find an environment with the specified identifier inside the database","details":"Object not found inside the database (bucket=endpoints, key=2)"}
false
I am not sure what steps I should take to troubleshoot?
Does ChannelsDVR have to be running in Docker for this to work? Can it be running in Windows (11).
Try using the Docker Compose a couple of posts up, with the new PORTAINER_ENV value set to 3. This might be a new wrinkle with the latest version of Portainer, that you could help prove/disprove.
Thanks, I will.
edit...
I used the script from post 340. OliveTin started right up. I get the same error, however.
Could this be my issue, I see it in the Post-install Health Check?
If the listed folders are NOT visible, AND you have your Channels DVR and Docker on the same system:
Channels reports this path as...
C:\ProgramData2\DVR
When using a Windows path in Portainer, change the backslashes to slashes like this...
C:/ProgramData2/DVR
When using WSL with a Linux distro and Docker Desktop, it's also possible to use...
/mnt/c/ProgramData2/DVR
