Hi all,
I am running Ubuntu 22.04 with Wayland and having trouble starting a Docker (Version: 20.10.22, build 3a2c30b) container as a specific user (ubuntu) that is created in the DOCKERFILE and in the entrypoint I use exec gosu ubuntu "$@".
I installed docker and ran the “docker-rootles-setuptool.sh”.
My problem is, that only the root user inside the docker container can start X11 applications, and when I try to chown the folder specified in the variable X11 Socket in the container I get the error: “chmod: changing permissions of ‘/tmp/.X11-unix’: Operation not permittet”, the permissions of ‘/tmp/.X11-unix’ are as follows inside the container: drwxrwxrwt 2 nobody nogroup 4.0K Jan 5 06:35 .X11-unix
On the host I created a group with the UID (100999) and GUID (100999) of the user in the docker container and used sudo setfacl -R -m "g:docker_share:rx" /tmp/.X11-unix/ to add read and execute permissions to the X11 Socket for the group.
This is the Dockerfile:
FROM osrf/ros:humble-desktop-full

RUN echo "set -g mouse on" > /home/${USERNAME}/.tmux.conf
RUN chmod +x /ros_entrypoint.sh
ENTRYPOINT [ "/ros_entrypoint.sh" ]
This is the “/ros_entrypoint.sh” script that is used as the ENTRYPOINT int docker:
#!/bin/bash
set -e
DEFAULT_USER_ID=1000
#
# Ensure host and container have the same user ID. This is to allow both sides
# to read and write the shared directories.
#
if [ -v USER_ID ] && [ "$USER_ID" != "$DEFAULT_USER_ID" ]; then
echo "Changing ubuntu user ID to match your host's user ID ($USER_ID)."
echo "This operation can take a while..."
usermod --uid "$USER_ID" ubuntu
# Ensure all files in the home directory are owned by the new user ID
find /home/ubuntu -user $DEFAULT_USER_ID -exec chown -h "$USER_ID" {} \;
fi
# If no command is provided, set bash to start interactive shell
if [ -z "$1" ]; then
set - "/bin/bash" -l
fi
# setup ros2 environment
source "/opt/ros/$ROS_DISTRO/setup.bash" --
if [ -f "/home/ubuntu"/ros2_ws/install/setup.bash ]; then
source "/home/ubuntu/ros2_ws/install/setup.bash" --
fi
exec gosu ubuntu "$@"
And I try to start it using the following script:
#!/bin/bash
set -e
XSOCK=/tmp/.X11-unix
XAUTH="$HOME/.Xauthority"
HOST_DIR="$(pwd)/bug_planning"
DOCKER_DIR="/home/ubuntu/ros2_ws/src/bug_planning"
xhost +
docker run -it --rm \
--name="bug_path_planning" \
--mount type=bind,source="$XSOCK",target="$XSOCK" \
--mount type=bind,source="$XAUTH",target="$XAUTH" \
--env="DISPLAY=${DISPLAY}" \
--env="XSOCK=${XSOCK}" \
--env="XAUTH=${XAUTH}" \
--shm-size=1g \
--env="QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1" \
--mount type=bind,source="$HOST_DIR",target="$DOCKER_DIR" \
bug:$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD) tmux
xhost -
Edit:
The code works if I switch from Wayland to Xorg.
For this I edited in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf the line WaylandEnable=true to WaylandEnable=false
Any Idea how to make it also work with Wayland?
