OS: Fedora Linux 36 (KDE) x86_64 Kernel: 6.2.15-100.fc36.x86_64 Docker version: 24.0.2, build cb74dfc Docker Compose version: v2.18.1 I’m having an issue where the bound mount on a docker container just doesn’t work. None of the files in the host show up in the container and while everyone else …

Just to be sure: you are aware that volumes are runtime configuration, and that they are not present during build time. Since you are on a rhel based system, I can imagine that selinux might cause perfectly configured binds to now work as expected. With docker run you would use -v /var/www/html/ai-…

Hi, thank you for the quick reply. SELinux isn’t running, I have it disabled: > getenforce Disabled

No idea then. If the source path on the host and the container path are correct, it should be at least listable inside the container, regardless whether the owner/group ip of the folders and files align with the user inside the container.

Exactly. And the paths are absolutely correct… I’ve double checked them a few times.

@galvao I’m on the same boat. Did you figure it out? I’m pretty sure it’s a permissions issue. Some folders work, but others don’t. The one that doesn’t work for me is the Homebrew folder. This is my setup: ... volumes: - /usr/local/Cellar/apache-spark/3.5.0/libexec:/spark - /usr/local/Ce…

Well, check user:group for your folders on host. Are they the same or different? Did you start the image with a dedicated used? What’s the default user of your image/Dockerfile?

[image] nachocab83: I’m pretty sure it’s a permissions issue. When you don’t have permission to access a folder, you can’t mount it, not to mention that if the Docker daemon is running as root I don’t see why you would have problem with permissions. Are you using Rootless Docker or maybe Dock…

[image] rimelek: You have to add that to the shared folders in the Settings of Docker Desktop Thanks! I restarted Docker Desktop and it worked.

[image] nachocab83: I’m pretty sure it’s a permissions issue. This solved my similar problem where I had a single file that was bound/mounted, but changes to the file inside and outside the container were not reflected. When I changed the permissions to the file outside of the container to 66…

Hey, I’m using docker desktop without the admin permissions, and I’m facing the same issue. Not able to see my folders mounted from VScode terminal to Docker container?
