I am trying to run a gocd server docker image and facing file permissions issues. Can't seem to figure out what I am missing.
Found out what uid/gid is being used in the container:
]$ sudo docker container run gocd/gocd-server:v21.1.0 id
$ exec /usr/local/sbin/tini -g -- id
uid=1000(go) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
[centos@ip-10-0-0-168 ~]$
Created a folder on the local host and set ownership:
$ sudo mkdir -p /gocd/data
[centos@ip-10-0-0-168 ~]$ sudo chown -R 1000:0 /gocd/
[centos@ip-10-0-0-168 ~]$
[centos@ip-10-0-0-168 ~]$ ls -l /
total 16
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 7 Feb 29 2020 bin -> usr/bin
:
drwxr-xr-x. 3 centos root 18 Feb 8 15:55 gocd
:
Docker run:
$ sudo docker run -v /gocd/data/:/godata -p 8153:8153 gocd/gocd-server:v21.1.0
/docker-entrypoint.sh: Creating directories and symlinks to hold GoCD configuration, data, and logs
$ mkdir -v -p /godata/artifacts
mkdir: can't create directory '/godata/artifacts': Permission denied
/docker-entrypoint.sh: cannot mkdir -v -p /godata/artifacts
[centos@ip-10-0-0-168 ~]$
Ok, so instead of
chown -R 1000:00 /gocd
, I switched tochown -R 1000:root
and with that I was able to get the container to start.Though in both cases the output of ls -l shows the same user and group:
