Apps - Previous Apps.  Check off what you want.  No need to do them individually

 

This didn't work for me. Previous Apps only had 5 containers listed, but I had around 20 of them.

 

I had to recreate them one by one using the "Select a template" dropdown. At least the previous templates had all my customizations intact.

I'm thinking of doing this.

 

Why does the system suggest path: `/mnt/user/system/docker/docker/` ? When the first `docker` is empty (except for the to-be defunct .img file).

 

Why not just go with `/mnt/user/system/docker/` ?

It is just a "follow" on that being a file.
I use the path you propose for more than a year, so you do it also, don't worry about it.

Why?

 

My Dockers weren't updating, the last thing on my list was deleting the .img and starting fresh. As i was going to do that anyway, i thought i might do the folder thing. A friend of mine said he'd had much better reliability with the folder than the file when he switched.

I think some people do it because they don't know why their docker.img is growing, maybe due to not really understanding path mapping.

 

There may be some other more valid reasons I'm not aware of.

Are they still working, just not updating?

 

Might be better to post your diagnostics

Yeah, they were still working. I already did the delete trick. Everything has been dandy since.

 

One thing i remember is that my .img was less than 50% full. So that wasn't an issue.
