Docker issues - config file and permission denied

Docker Hub Issue Tracking
1

Hello,

Please, help me to solve two issues with redis in the docker:

  1. no config file specified
  2. Failed opening the RDB file zzh

I spent a lot of time online trying to find how to solve these issues. I have tried many solutions, but they have not helped me.

Bellow records from the docker log, docker-compose and linux version.

Good morning,

I’ve found this stackoverflow which indicates that an attacker tried to get access to your system:

So please ensure that your firewall only allows wanted traffic to your redis-container’s port and/or add a password to your redis-instance.
