launching ArangoDB #9

Closed gotdairyya closed 4 years ago

gotdairyya commented 4 years ago

With the current instructions, I was not able to launch arango

Hi Derya, thanks for your first issue 🎉

Would you mind providing us a bit more info? It's usually best practice to include what you tried (commands), how it failed (error messages, etc.), and, if there is an easy resolution/something you think that should be changed, what should be changed

gotdairyya commented 4 years ago

Yes! First I downloaded docker-compose, pipenv install docker-compose

Then I tried: -derya$ docker-compose up ERROR: docker-compose: command not found

-derya$ ARANGO_DATA=~/.local/multinet/arango docker-compose up ERROR: docker-compose: command not found

We can definitely be clearer and more verbose when we tell users to install dependencies (I'm thinking links to documentation pages with instructions).

The problem you're having is that the commands docker and docker-compose are not python packages so cannot be installed with pip and, by extension, pipenv. To install docker and docker-compose (docker-compose comes with docker on mac) on your mac, you can use these instructions.

I did install docker through the website that you linked to (before I tried to run these commands), but I never ran Docker after installing it

So now that I ran Docker Desktop, it was not initially clear to me if I needed to create a Docker ID (I did not), but I was able to run docker-compose up

And I got this error:

ERROR: for arangodb  Cannot start service arangodb: Mounts denied: 
The paths /var/arangodb-apps and /var/arangodb
are not shared from OS X and are not known to Docker.
You can configure shared paths from Docker -> Preferences... -> File Sharing.
See https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/osxfs/#namespaces for more info.

but running ARANGO_DATA=~/.local/multinet/arango docker-compose up worked!

Woo! Yeah, the second command is the one you have to use on mac for this exact issue. I've got a local branch for some better install instructions that hopefully captures this confusion and helps smooth it out
