Hello together
Please excuse me if this question was asked like a thousand times before, but I also read almost all of the thousand solutions and didn’t come to a solution yet. As I don’t want to be misled by a deprecated information I just go ahead and ask one more time.
I just bought a new laptop and for the convenience not cluttering my c drive I decided to give Docker Toolbox another chance to run on drive d
Installation seemed to go properly and my env variables also point to drive d
So i went ahead and pulled one of our companies app onto my laptop to start my work and got immediately interrupted by the following error:
D:\repositories\company_suite>docker-compose up
Removing company_suite_nginx_1

I made sure to properly mount my shared folder d /d in VirtualBox GUI
Additional I mounted it via VBoxManage:
VBoxManage setextradata default VBoxInternal2/SharedFoldersEnableSymlinksCreate/d 1
and via docker-machine ssh, /mnt/sda1/var/lib/boot2docker/profile:
sudo mount -t vboxsf -o uid=1000,gid=50 d /d
Previously I received an identical error for the nginx app in the docker-compose.yml which has now been replaced with the postgresql/pg_hba.conf just right after I upgraded VirtualBox to latest Version 6.0.1
Is there anything I forgot to set properly or why can’t I start my app from drive d?
Just to let you know, starting it from c/Users paths works just fine, as intended
