How do I switch to `pokyuser` or set to correct user when running the container? #63

Hi

I'm following your standard guide for setting up Yocto in the crops/yocto docker image. Instead of using workdir as a folder name I'm using yocto.

However, when I try to clone Poky into this folder, I get these error messages:

sh-4.4$ git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
fatal: could not create work tree dir 'poky': Permission denied
sh-4.4$ ls -halt

drwxr-xr-x. 1 root     root     4.0K Jun 16 11:34 ..
drwxrwxr-x. 2 pokyuser pokyuser 4.0K Jun 16 11:19 .
sh-4.4$ pwd
/yocto
sh-4.4$ whoami
usersetup
sh-4.4$ sudo su pokyuser
[sudo] password for usersetup: 
Sorry, try again.

How do I switch to pokyuser or set to correct user when running the container?

Hi @HenrikBach1,

Could you post the full command you use to run the container?

HenrikBach1 commented 3 years ago 
docker run -it -d --name yocto -v ~/projects/yocto:/yocto --workdir=/yocto crops/poky

docker run -it -d --name yocto -v ~/projects/yocto:/yocto --workdir=/yocto crops/poky

Since this command is daemonizing the container, that most likely means you are using docker exec to issue the commands in the container. If this is the case, that means you'll have to explicitly specify the user as part of docker exec such as:

docker exec -it -u pokyuser yocto bash
