docker-compose failed to create symbolic link, Game.ini and GameUserSettings.ini already exist #34

Trying to set up a server using the docker-compose.yml included here. I get the following error messages

ln: failed to create symbolic link 'Game.ini': File exists
ln: failed to create symbolic link 'GameUserSettings.ini': File exists

I believe that because of the failed symlink the configs that had been generated before are not being used by the server (hence the failure to create the symbolic link)

Is the docker-compose.yml a waste of time basically?

Seems like I was able to resolve the errors mentioned though I don't see mods set in the Game.ini being downloaded as expected or any settings in GameUserSettings.ini being respected. So I can assume the config are being overridden or symlinks are still causing the issues.

Looking at the the directory closer (the bind mount) I can see that the symlink is being created correctly. Something else is wrong here but I'm not sure what. The configs are good and in the right place. I'll have to keep poking at it but I'm closing this since it's not an issue with the run script.
