ERROR: for talkyard_search_1 Cannot start service search
I got an installation error on PVE LXC Ubuntu 20.04 and it looks like the search tool failed to install.

Encountered errors while bringing up the project.
I would love to have a one-click installation of Docker like Discourse, it's very easy and error free.

I never tried running Talkyard with LXC. It'd be nice if that worked — and Podman too.
It seems the errors are, for ElasticSearch and Redis:
error setting rlimit type 8: operation not permitted write sysctl key net.core.somaxconn: open /proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn: no such file or directory
and indeed they need higher OS resource limits. For example, ElasticSearch wants at least 65 536 open files descriptors. And Redis wants a higher
SOMAXCONN
( = max waiting connection requests for a listening socket).But I'm surprised it seems they try to auto-configure these things themselves?
I wonder if it's possible to 1) configure the OS? or the LXC / Podman containers? so the resource limits are high enough. Or 2) reconfigure ES and Redis so they're ok with lower limits. But I think at least with ES that's not completely possible.

Where would you want to one-click install Talkyard? I'm thinking / wondering-if a one click installer needs to be created with a specific hosting provider in mind, e.g. an installer for DigitalOcean, and another for ... others.
