Thank you for this post. I could install with this tips now Bitwarden on my Server pretty easy. I also use a Setup with the jwilder\nginx-proxy

I just added following docker-compose.overwrite.yml to the bwdata/docker folder:

version: '3'

services:
  nginx:
      environment:
        VIRTUAL_PORT: 8080
        VIRTUAL_HOST: vault.example.com
        LETSENCRYPT_HOST: vault.example.com
       LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL: [email protected]

networks:
  default:
    external:
      name: nginx-proxy

I then also removed in the `config.yml` the port mappings: 
http_port:
https_port:

Afterwards i needed to run `.\bitwarden.sh rebuild` to generate the updated docker-compose.yml. Then i could run the `.\bitwarden.sh start` and everything worked.



Additional Notes
If you do not want to have the bwdata folder inside your homedir, you could just run the script, where the folder needs to be. I placed the script under /docker-containers/websites/bitwarden. Each website has in the folder /docker-containers/websites a seperate subfolder and a custom backup script will backup each subfolder invidually in a tar.gz and download it to my NAS at home.
