Make user fails on Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS

[BeFlo]

When running make user command inside the seL4-CAmkES-L4v-dockerfiles folder the following error occurs on Step 3. "rm: cannot remove '/var/lib/apt/lists/*': No such file or directory". (Full error message below). I am not sure

I am not sure if this a real error. Thanks & Regards BeFlo

I'm having the same issue on Debian buster (10.0) on Windows, running Docker via this guide for WSL. Adding the -f force flag to the rm command in extras.dockerfile seems to allow things to proceed, but I'm not sure if that's a real fix. Maybe commenting that section back out would be best?

Sorry for the delay, the holiday period slows everything down.

I've put forward a fix for this internally, which may take a day or so to push out. The fix is to modify extras.dockerfile to look like this:

RUN apt-get update -q \
    && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \
        # Add more dependencies here
        cowsay \
        sudo 

Let us know if that helps!

Making that change got me past the initial error described in the original post, but now, when running make user (specifically when it tries to make the user_run target), I get the following error:

docker: Error response from daemon: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:346: starting container process caused "process_linux.go:449: container init caused \"rootfs_linux.go:58: mounting \\"/etc/localtime\\" to rootfs \\"/var/lib/docker/overlay2/778f3fba720f560454896e05cb92f05561813c5d29d5140fa16bcc426728bc3e/merged\\" at \\"/var/lib/docker/overlay2/778f3fba720f560454896e05cb92f05561813c5d29d5140fa16bcc426728bc3e/merged/usr/share/zoneinfo/UCT\\" caused \\"not a directory\\"\"": unknown: Are you trying to mount a directory onto a file (or vice-versa)? Check if the specified host path exists and is the expected type. make: *** [Makefile:113: user_run] Error 125

I'm not sure if it's related.

[LukeMondy]

I'm guessing it's related to running under WSL.

This line in particular seems to be causing the issue: https://github.com/SEL4PROJ/seL4-CAmkES-L4v-dockerfiles/blob/ecdfd80ce2a32aa278a2b870e4a60c56baad2c19/Makefile#L120

You can delete it, and see if it helps. It's just a quality-of-life thing, so the container has the same time as your host machine.

That should be the only issue, but we haven't tried the containers on WSL at all, so there may be other issues.

[BeFlo]

Same issue for me after i have deleted line 120 and line 132.

[LukeMondy]

There are now two issues: the original, and the issue reported by @dymil :

docker: Error response from daemon: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:346: starting container process caused "process_linux.go:449: container init caused "rootfs_linux.go:58: mounting \"/etc/localtime\" to rootfs \"/var/lib/docker/overlay2/778f3fba720f560454896e05cb92f05561813c5d29d5140fa16bcc426728bc3e/merged\" at \"/var/lib/docker/overlay2/778f3fba720f560454896e05cb92f05561813c5d29d5140fa16bcc426728bc3e/merged/usr/share/zoneinfo/UCT\" caused \"not a directory\""": unknown: Are you trying to mount a directory onto a file (or vice-versa)? Check if the specified host path exists and is the expected type. make: *** [Makefile:113: user_run] Error 125

I'm not sure which issue you're experiencing? The original, or dymil's?

[BeFlo]

Cool, I got it working now. Thanks for the support

[LukeMondy]

Great!
