Duplicate mount point error

[ashman70]

I am trying to add a docker container and when I fill out the paths and try and install it, I get the following error:

 

Duplicate mount point: /data.

 

All my dockers are pointing to /data

 

How can I get around this error?

I think that means you have attempted to map something to /data twice for the same container

[ashman70]

I think its happening because I am adding a custom container path that points to:

 

/mnt/user/downloads/completed/TV

 

The container path for this is: /data

 

This container path is shared with another docker, could that be the issue?

I'm just not sure how to get around this.

Should not be the issue, I have several containers pointing to similar paths (Jellyfin and Plex for example).

No, it is perfectly acceptable for different containers to have the same mount point.   I think it means you are trying to map it twice for the same container.    Make sure you can see all mappings for each container.

I think I have it figured out, thanks.

probably via the docker run command which tells you everything on most errors you need to know

When I had this error it because I had more than one path going to the same location (copy/paste error)
