Docker mounts and empty volume

[Kru-x]

Giday,

 

I have made a template for the official wordpress and it works great when I use the path to the containers /var/www/html folder and mount it to my appdata folder. Now I want to mount the root folder "/var/www' to my appdata folder instead but that just wont work, the files and folders in /html is not mounting, just the folder itself aka it is empty in my appdata folder.  Some weird docker issue I guess! Any clues?

Try mounting it with the slave option when you edit the path.

Hi Squid,

 

Nahh didn't work, it will mount correctly if I use RW/Shared but then I still can't edit in the top level folder in this case "/var/www" but I can edit in "var/www/html". guess it is some user privileges messing it up , strange thing is if I mount the toplevel folder in a different folder I can! Dirty workaround to have two folders but it works so hey! ?
