Hi all,
I’m trying to (re)install NC via docker. This time, I’m wanting all of the volumes mounted under ~/shared/NextCloud on the host computer. I’m doing this because I have backups that run on ~shared…
However, when I try to launch the container(s) I get this error message:
docker: Error response from daemon: error while mounting volume ‘/var/lib/docker/volumes/nextcloud_aio_masterc
ontainer/_data’: failed to mount local volume: mount /home/shared/NextCloud/config :/var/lib/docker/volumes/ne
xtcloud_aio_mastercontainer/_data, flags: 0x1000: no such file or directory.
Here is the script I’m using to start the container:
sudo docker volume create --driver local --name nextcloud_aio_nextcloud_datadir \
-o device="/home/shared/NextCloud/aio_data" -o type="none" -o o="bind"
sudo docker volume create --driver local --name nextcloud_datadir \
-o device="/home/shared/NextCloud/data" -o type="none" -o o="bind"
sudo docker volume create --driver local --name nextcloud_aio_mastercontainer \
-o device="/home/shared/NextCloud/config " -o type="none" -o o="bind"
sudo docker run \
--init \
--sig-proxy=false \
--name nextcloud-aio-mastercontainer \
--restart always \
--publish 6080:80 \
--publish 6081:8080 \
--publish 6443:11000 \
--env APACHE_PORT=11000 \
--env NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR="nextcloud_aio_nextcloud_datadir" \
--volume nextcloud_aio_mastercontainer:/mnt/docker-aio-config \
--volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro \
nextcloud/all-in-one:latest
I believe I have created the directories that need to be present… and then some, perhaps.
$ tree ~shared/NextCloud/
/home/shared/NextCloud/
├── aio_data
│ └── _data
├── config
│ └── _data
└── data
└── _data
So, what am I doing wrong?
BTW, what is the advantage of running the AIO version of NC rather than the “standard” version like that at https://hub.docker.com/_/nextcloud/
Mike.

Steps to replicate it (hint: details matter!):
Log entries
Nextcloud
Please provide the log entries from your Nextcloud log that are generated during the time of problem (via the Copy raw option from Administration settings->Logging screen or from your nextcloud.log located in your data directory). Feel free to use a pastebin/gist service if necessary.

Web Browser
If the problem is related to the Web interface, open your browser inspector Console and Network tabs while refreshing (reloading) and reproducing the problem. Provide any relevant output/errors here that appear.
PASTE
Web server / Reverse Proxy
The output of your Apache/nginx/system log in /var/log/____:
PASTE HERE

Tips for increasing the likelihood of a response
- Use the
preformatted textformatting option in the editor for all log entries and configuration output. - If screenshots are useful, feel free to include them.
- If possible, also include key error output in text form so it can be searched for.
- Try to edit log output only minimally (if at all) so that it can be ran through analyzers / formatters by those trying to help you.
