Redis docker running on wife's username ???

[RandomFactoid]

Hi. 

 

I have a user set up for my wife to access samba shares. Oddly, i've just noticed having ran 'ps aux' in the terminal that Redis docker process is running as my wife's username. Really bizzare.

 

My docker run is here:

docker run
  -d
  --name='redis'
  --net='delta'
  -e TZ="Europe/London"
  -e HOST_OS="Unraid"
  -e HOST_HOSTNAME="Adulis"
  -e HOST_CONTAINERNAME="redis"
  -e 'ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD'='no'
  -e 'REDIS_PASSWORD'='REDACTED'
  -e 'REDIS_EXTRA_FLAGS'='--auto-aof-rewrite-percentage 100
  --auto-aof-rewrite-min-size 64mb'
  -l net.unraid.docker.managed=dockerman
  -l net.unraid.docker.icon='https://raw.githubusercontent.com/A75G/docker-templates/master/templates/icons/redis.png'
  -p '6379:6379/tcp'
  -v '/mnt/user/appdata/redis':'/bitnami/redis':'rw'
  -v '/mnt/user/appdata/redis/bitnami/':'/bitnami/':'rw' 'bitnami/redis:latest'

The command finished successfully!

 

root@Adulis:~# ps aux |grep redis
wifesusename 20655  0.5  0.0  35248 12972 ?        Ssl  18:47   0:00 redis-server 0.0.0.0:6379
root     21159  0.0  0.0   4048  2216 pts/0    S+   18:47   0:00 grep redis

 

 

Really bizzare. Any idea why that's so ?

It's because images typically have a UID already specified in them, and if you don't specify a user yourself when launching the container, it will default to that UID. In this case, the image creator's UID match's your wife's UID on your Unraid box. To fix this, specify the user that the container runs as using --user uid:gid
