Unable to start container on M1 using Colima

[SoumayaMauthoorMOJ]

I have tried to follow the instructions for running the image on M1:

1. Install colima (instructions)
2. Run colima start --arch x86_64 --memory 4
3. Start container as usual

When I run colima list I get the following output:

PROFILE    STATUS     ARCH      CPUS    MEMORY    DISK     RUNTIME    ADDRESS
default    Running    x86_64    2       4GiB      60GiB    docker     

I start the container:

docker run -d --name oracle_db \
-p 1521:1521 \
-e ORACLE_RANDOM_PASSWORD="y" \
-e APP_USER="my_user" \
-e APP_USER_PASSWORD="my_password_which_I_really_should_change" \
gvenzl/oracle-xe

However the container exits after about 1 minute:

CONTAINER ID   IMAGE              COMMAND                  CREATED         STATUS                        PORTS     NAMES
90bbe2eb18a7   gvenzl/oracle-xe   "container-entrypoin…"   2 minutes ago   Exited (204) 36 seconds ago             oracle_db

Any thoughts?

Hi @SoumayaMauthoorMOJ,

Thanks a lot for using these images!

Unfortunately, I myself do not run on a Mac M1 and can hence only provide limited insights. Hopefully, other folks in the community here can add their experiences.

Could you please provide the log from the container via docker logs oracle-db?

Thanks @gvenzl all sorted now I used docker logs and the password was too long for some reason:

############################################
ORACLE PASSWORD FOR SYS AND SYSTEM: ZTM4MjMx
############################################

Session altered.

   CREATE USER my_user IDENTIFIED BY "my_password_which_I_really_should_change" QUOTA UNLIMITED ON USERS
                                     *
