: "httpd (pid 7) already running"

[adroffner]

docker-compose sometimes has an abnormal shut down. I see something like httpd (pid 7) already running. (Full disclosure: I made a centos port of your mod_wsgi Docker, and the issue might not be in your code.)

A php Docker project fixes this by deleting the PID file before starting. Assuming Apache runs in the foreground, this should be all right.

See thes issue links:

• (Container won't start twice...PHP)[https://github.com/docker-library/php/issues/187]
• (apache2-foreground)[https://github.com/docker-library/php/blob/bdfd0fc1d19102cd6f951614072a51eabf7191bf/5.6/apache/apache2-foreground]

The only way that might be possible is if a stopped container was turned into an image and run again. That shouldn't happen under normal circumstances. What is the docker-compose configuration look like?
