Change default container path #8

Closed weilu1998 closed 1 year ago

weilu1998 commented 1 year ago

Hi,

I was trying to run FCS-GX on a server (login node) and encountered this error. I am wondering is there a way to change the default container building path?

container creation failed: mount /scratch/local->/scratch/local error: while mounting /scratch/local: mount source /scratch/local doesn't exist

Thanks, Wei

Hi Wei,

the FCS-GX wiki does not mention use of /scratch. Are you trying to put a local backup copy in your scratch folder ie with --gx-db-disk? How are you deviating from the walkthrough exactly?

Thanks!

Hi @deaconjs ,

Thanks for the reply! Sorry, I previously thought the path "/scratch/local" was written inside the sif image because I will get the error even when I don't input any variable. Later on, I tried a different version of singularity and the problem was solved.

Thanks, Wei
