How to change port number when hosting minio server?

Question

I am currently working on a project where I am attempting to use MinIO with a data moving program developed by my company. This broker software only allows for devices using port 80 to successfully complete a job; however, any avid user of MinIO knows that MinIO hosts on port 9000. So my question is, is there a way to change the port on which the MinIO server is hosted? I've tried looking through the config.json file to find an address variable to assign a port number to but each of the address variables I attempted to change had no effect on the endpoint port number. For reference, I am hosting MinIO on a windows 10 virtual machine during the test phase of the project and will be moving it onto a dedicated server (also windows 10) upon successful completion of testing.

Answer 1

Add --address :80 when you start your minio. You can refer to this: https://docs.min.io/docs/multi-tenant-minio-deployment-guide.html

As per minio official documentation, you can Update/Create an environment file at /etc/default/minio and update the environment variable called MINIO_OPTS

# Set all MinIO server options
#
# The following explicitly sets the MinIO Console listen to address to
# port 9001 on all network interfaces. The default behavior is dynamic
# port selection.

MINIO_OPTS="--console-address :9001"

you can update the port value of the console-address argument.

restart the service using the below command

sudo systemctl restart minio.service

verify wheather port has been changed or not using the below command

sudo systemctl status minio.service

When you start the minio server use the following command…

minio server start --address :[port you want to use]

for example…

minio server start --address :8000

Answer 4

you can config env variables by editing the /etc/default/minio file. For example, to modify the WebUI port (default 9001) and the endpoint port (default 9000), you can adjust the MINIO_OPTS item in this file. Here's how you might change the WebUI port to 19001 and the endpoint port to 19000, modify it as follows

MINIO_OPTS=' --console-address=":19001" --address=":19000" '

hope this helps
