docker run --name iris -d --publish 1972:1972 --publish 52773:52773 --volume /<volume-path-on-host>:/<volume-name-in-container> --env ISC_DATA_DIRECTORY=/<volume-name-in-container>/<durable-directory> containers.intersystems.com/intersystems/irishealth-community-arm64:latest-cdObjectScriptObjectScriptbut it will error out to start

Any thoughts about that?
Thanks
Hi,
Are you using docker desktop ? if so, does you file sharing implemention is "VirtioFS" ?
Then, that may be a problem, try it with gRPC FUSE, does it fix it ?
Why "VirtioFS" and durable doesn't work, i don't know, i will try to gather information about it.
Correct - I use Docker Desktop and by default file sharing was set to "VirtoFS" which had no issue so far. Switching to "gRPC FUSE" solved the problem.
Ok, it seems it's a common problem with VirtioFS that struggle to bind owner of a file between host and container :
https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues/6243
Until this issue is not solved, i guess you can't use VirtioFS with durable.
Good to know!
