Problem Description

If you use the sampe docker-compose.yml, thehive fails to talk to cortex ("about" page says "AUTH_ERROR"), and prints no helpful error messages. The sample files should work, and thehive should emit meaningful error messages if it fails to establish a connection.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Download docker-compose file from official docs, apply fix for dockerhub sample uses the wrong port Cortex#203
2. docker-compose up
3. Wait until elastic, thehive and cortex have started
4. Open localhost:9000 in your browser, click "Update Database", wait, register
5. Open localhost:9001 in your browser, click "Update Database", wait
6. Wait a bit, check thehive's about page and observe its output

docker-compose output

TheHive can use Cortex if you create an account in Cortex and configure TheHive with it:

• after database update, go to Cortex administration page, create an organization and a user with, at least "analyze" role. Create an API key for that user.
• update your docker-compose.yml and add command: --cortex-key **KEY** in thehive section (under "image: thehiveproject/thehive"). Obviously replace KEY by the key from Cortex.
• restart services and it should work.

Is there any way we can automate that?

I have to orchestrate hive installations for demonstration and testing purposes, so manually tinkering every instance is not an option.
