Ok, I have an interesting one I could use everyones help on.
I am using “rclone mount” to mount a remote directory to my host (Ubuntu Server). I then want to use Docker Compose to set the remote mounted directory into a Docker container volume. I have tried separate ways and all of them result in some form of a permissions error.
* Paths have been simplified for ease of following.
The rclone mount is at ~/parent/remote.
If I try to set ~/parent as the volume, I get the below error.
volumes:
- ./parent:/parent
# This results in the remote folder having all "?" as its permissions inside the container.
drwxr-xr-x 4 abc abc 4096 Apr 25 08:38 ..
d????????? ? ? ? ? ? remote
If I try to set ~/parent/remote as the volume, I get the below error on docker compose up.
volumes:
- ./parent/remote:/remote
Error response from daemon: error while creating mount source path '~/parent/remote': mkdir ~/parent/remote: file exists
Lastly, I have tried using a bind mount with propagation settings and I get the below error:
volumes:
- type: bind
source: ./parent/remote
target: /remote
bind:
propagation: shared
Error response from daemon: error while creating mount source path '~/parent/remote': mkdir ~/parent/remote: file exists
How can I mount the rclone mount directory as a volume into a Docker container?
