Docker restart always #45

Closed Fr33loader closed 6 years ago

Fr33loader commented 6 years ago

Hi guys,

Just a small question that has left me puzzled.

Problem

The default docker image setup does not really suit my needs, since I would prefer that if I did a reboot of my server, my docker containers would automatically reboot.

To that end, I added a "restart: always" in my docker-compose file.

Example:

arch-delugevpn:
        image: ledokun/armhf-arch-delugevpn
        container_name: delugevpn
        restart: always
        network_mode: "bridge"

Unfortunately, no luck. On force reboot, it exits the docker container and does not reboot. Anything I'm missing?

I don't see anything wrong with that setting in your compose file. Unless it is different on ARM - the setting used in Mediabox: restart: unless-stopped does restart containers after a server reboot.

It only doesn't restart any that were specifically stopped via the docker command-line. I reboot my server all the time and all the containers I expect to spin back up start right up again after the boot.

Not sure if it is the container you are using or if it due to ARM but both: restart: unless-stopped and restart: always Should re-launch running containers after a reboot.

Do "any" container restart for you at all after a reboot?

This hasn't worked since the beginning, but weirdly enough I did a full "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade" and the problem disappeared: it auto reboots on start now.

Apologies for wasting your time - this can be closed now.

No problem at all ... Glad it's working correctly now. Thanks
