Dear programmers

I was following the readme to establish radicale in a container. However, server was not accessible by web or thunderbird. Trying to enter the container interactively, I saw that initialising the container, some permission error occurs. More or less minimal command to launch the container looks like that:

$ sudo docker run -a STDERR --name radicale -p 127.0.0.1:5232:5232 --cap-drop ALL --cap-add CHOWN --cap-add SETUID --cap-add SETGID --cap-add KILL tomsquest/docker-radicale chown: /data: Permission denied

Container is the established, but it looks, data it cannot provide. The experiment was run at Debian 10 buster.

How is the correct way to flawlessly run a radicale container?

Thanks, Axel

Hi @anobar ,

It is advised, and more, expected that you provide a /data directory as a volume. This directory is where your data will be stored. If you don't set this volume, the data will be in the container and may vanish when the container is removed.

BTW the error you have is because the cap-add/cap-drop instructions restrict the reading of the /data directory inside the container.
