Permission denied error after running 'docker-compose up' (Windows 11)

[kxxdoerner]

I installed diveintoansible in my home directory c:\Users\klaus\diveintoansible-lab\ I get an error (specifying a "james" directory) after running docker-compose up. Any idea what I did wrong? Help appreciated ...

MESSAGE: Attaching to centos1, centos2, centos3, docker, portal, ubuntu-c, ubuntu1, ubuntu2, ubuntu3 Error response from daemon: error while creating mount source path '/run/desktop/mnt/host/c/users/james/diveintoansible-lab/ansible_home/shared': mkdir /run/desktop/mnt/host/c/users/james: permission denied

Hiya @kxxdoerner

Change the .env file and comment out that entry james in, you shouldn't need to make any changes.

Then, do a

docker compose down docker compose rm docker compose up

And you should be good 👍

James, thanks for your quick response, I appreciate that. I commented the lines out as recommended. After docker-compose up I get these responses:

Hiya,

Easiest thing to do, could you copy the .env file from the repository and make no changes, then you should be good 👍
