FATAL: failed to open log file '(null)': Bad address

[glukkkk]

Not sure if it's a Sphinx binary error.

I have a Sphinx config file located in /var/www/app/docker/sphinx/sphinx.conf. My .yaml config is the following:

  sphinx:
    image: macbre/sphinxsearch:3.1.1
    volumes:
      - ./docker/sphinx:/usr/local/var/data/
      - ./docker/sphinx:/opt/sphinx/index
      - ./docker/sphinx:/opt/sphinx/log
      - ./docker/sphinx/sphinx.conf:/opt/sphinx/conf/sphinx.conf

Everything is fine when running docker compose . However when I use the run command, I get the error:

sudo docker run --name=sphinx --mount type=bind,source=/var/www/app/docker/sphinx/sphinx.conf,target=/opt/sphinx/conf/sphinx.conf --mount type=bind,source=/var/www/app/docker,target=/opt/sphinx/log macbre/sphinxsearch:3.1.1

--mount type=bind,source=/var/www/app/docker/sphinx/sphinx.conf,target=/opt/sphinx/conf/sphinx.conf

Can you doublecheck that the source path is correct? I had the same error in the very same situation with docker-compose vs docker run, it turned out I had a wrong path specified in the latter case.

I'm also having this issue.
