In deploying this project, I found that no container versions were given; that means docker will use "latest" as a version, which means that results can vary from day to day if any containers have been updated in that time.

I'd strongly suggest using specific versions, then allowing updates to be tested as functional before committing that new version to the main branch. This ensures the main branch works as a more important criterion than whether yesterday's update is automatically used and deployed without testing.

In this PR, I've used the versions or hashes that were pulled for me as "latest". They won't match "latest" when this PR is reviewed, but they'd still work the same as mine did.

As the same time -- perhaps because a newer version has different surprise behaviour -- I found that the icingaweb container needs to write logs, and lacks permission. I mitigated by mounting a volume on the log directory. Maybe not the best solution, but makes the main branch work today.
