SQLITE issue when using docker

[Manuelbaun]

Hi Guys,

I followed the example to set up the docker image and when the image starts I get this error in the browser when I open up localhost:8000.

It seems, that it cannot find a table in the SQLite file. Any Idea, how I can fix it?

After starting the docker container using docker container exec -it xblock-sdk bash run the following:

docker container exec -it xblock-sdk bash 
python3.8 manage.py migrate

after this http://localhost:8000/ had what should be there.

Note: I am using a modified Dockerfile and have python3.8. The standard one has python3.5 which is deprecated.

Note: This does not get persisted after a restart. Solution: Provide persistant storage for /usr/local/src/xblock-sdk/var See the approach using a docker-compose.yml file in https://github.com/edx/xblock-sdk/pull/194
