Error while creating mount source path "Listeners": operation not supported

Docker Desktop for Mac
1

Hi.
After reading this blog post I immediately upgraded to 4.6 and to .1 later on. Unfortunately, if I enable Enable VirtioFS accelerated directory sharing I’m unable to use my containers anymore. It seems related to one only, but I cannot figure out what’s wrong.

My docker-compose.yaml relevant section:

  docker-mysql:
    container_name: ${APP_NAME}_db
    image: 'mariadb:10.3'
    restart: unless-stopped
    expose:
      - '3306'
    ports:
      - 3306:3306
    environment:
      - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=${MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD}
      - MYSQL_PORT=${MYSQL_PORT}
      - MYSQL_USER=${MYSQL_USER}
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=${MYSQL_PASSWORD}
    volumes:
      - ./mysql/data:/var/lib/mysql:cached
      - ./mysql/conf/my.cnf:/etc/mysql/my.cnf:ro,delegated
      - ./mysql-files:/var/lib/mysql-files
    networks:
      docker-network:

When compose tries to start this container:

At the end of the blog post there is a link to a GitHub roadmap issue where you can report any problem:

I tried your compose file on my Mac 12.3 (M1). It worked, but there is an other permission error report in the Github thread I linked above.

One thing I noticed though is that you have an adminer and a mailhog container too. Is there something else too that you removed from your docker compose file before sharing?

Sorry, I was very busy and wanted to test your config, but I didn’t have enough time. Looking at the config I can’t see anything that should cause the issue. I hope you can find the cause. Also you can share anything in this topic that you find which could be related to the error. Maybe with some additional info somebody will have an idea. Either we or the developers

The problem is this:

This never worked with Docker for Mac for obvious reasons, but with VirtioFS actually gives errors.

I didn’t know wthat that “Listeners” was in the error message. It makes sense now :slight_smile:

Thank you @martijnstorck, that made it work! Indeed also much faster with VirtioFS
