+- **Portal for the client — Gitea + Dokploy (asked 2026-10-23; LIVE on
+  Dokploy 2026-10-27, `cc3a01a`, Ecare network only).** URL
+  `http://10.200.0.15:8085` (Dokploy project Ecw_ChargeValidation →
+  production → app **Portal**; port 8085 → 8000). The operator signed in
+  there as Super Admin; Dashboard, Users, Sign-ins work. How it got there:
+  - **Source = Drop (zip upload), not Git:** Dokploy cannot clone from
+    Gitea (`server certificate verification failed`, Traefik's self-signed
+    cert); Gitea has no internal http port and no SSH; the operator cannot
+    open Dokploy Settings → Git Providers; the OTS-Team Gitea account does
+    not see `automation-tools`. So: `git archive --format=zip HEAD
+    Dockerfile requirements-portal.txt src web` → `D:\ecw-portal-deploy\
+    portal-<hash>.zip` → app → General → Provider → **Drop** → select →
+    the **Deploy under the drop box** (the top Deploy / Reload rebuilds the
+    last upload). Long term: ask the Dokploy admin for a Gitea provider.
+  - **DB:** the SQL Server is on the operator's PC (`MECARE331` =
+    10.50.2.131), instance TCP port 58468 (dynamic — a SQL restart may move
+    it; set a static port later). SQL login **`cv_portal`** (made in SSMS
+    2026-10-27: db_datareader + INSERT/UPDATE `CV_PortalUser`, INSERT
+    `CV_PortalSignIn`); its password only in Dokploy's env
+    (`RESULTS_DB_CONN`), never here or in chat. The Portal works only while
+    that PC is on.
+  - **Fixes found live:** `69c51d8` the image needs `libgssapi-krb5-2` by
+    name (autoremove took it; ODBC Driver 18 "Can't open lib ... file not
+    found"); `cc3a01a` `TZ=Asia/Kolkata` + `tzdata` (the server is UTC: a
+    15:45 IST Sign-in read 10:15; three such rows stay in CV_PortalSignIn
+    from 2026-10-27 ~15:45). Errors seen: `SQLSTATE 01000` = driver not
+    loading; `28000` = login missing / wrong password.
+  - Sessions are in memory: every Deploy / Reload signs everyone out.
+  - For the client: needs a public HTTPS URL (or VPN) from IT, and the DB
+    off a desktop PC. `Dockerfile`
   (python 3.13-slim + ODBC Driver 18, copies only `src/` + `web/`,
