Hi, New Unraid user here.

 

I am doing my first docker and decided to do a Minecraft server using MineOS docker.  So I installed all the defaults and the share went by default somehow to:

/mnt/appdata/minecraftos/

 

So when I went to the shares to load up a map, I couldn't find that appdata.  Well it is because it should have been:
/mnt/user/appdata/minecraftos/

 

So I can change to include user, but the directory and contents of /mnt/appdata/minecraftos/ is still in my docker image.  To try to fix I went to Settings/Docker and disable docker.  Then after that delete the docker file.  I figured no problem since it is my first docker anyway.  I opened /mnt/user/system/docker  and in fact the docker image was gone.  Then I enabled dockers again thinking it would recreated a clean docker image.  It did in fact create a new docker image, but the directory /mnt/appdata/minecraftos/ still exists in it?!  

 

Why is it still there?  I would like that just deleted.  Why didn't a full delete/recreate of my docker image remove that?  How do I delete this directory?  I see no way to open the docker itself to point to the rogue directory that I inadvertently created above... and just delete it.

 

I'm not a Unix expert.  I'm coming from WHS (windows server 2003) and looking to Unraid as a replacement for that old system.  So if you can help me delete /mnt/appdata/ from my docker image I would be very grateful.  Please spell it out clearly   Thanks.

Simple solution is from the command prompt:

rm -rf /mnt/appdata

A reboot would also handle it, but I'm not 100% sure if the system will allow a reboot and not hangup since it wouldn't be able to unmount that particular folder

 

Reason why deleting docker.img doesn't fix anything is because by design, appdata is stored outside of the docker.img (/mnt/user/appdata/...) so that it can survive a deletion of the docker.img

Thanks, that did it!
