shouldn't the current directory be the default context for "podman build"?
by Robert P. J. Day
"man podman-build" suggests that the context argument is optional:
SYNOPSIS
podman build [options] [context]
podman image build [options] [context]
...
If no context directory is specified, then Podman will assume
the current working directory as the build context, which
should contain the Containerfile.
but if i have a directory with nothing but a Containerfile, i get:
$ podman build
Error: no context directory specified, and no containerfile specified
$
OTOH, specifying context of current directory:
$ podman build .
STEP 1: FROM alpine:latest
... etc etc ...
thoughts?

rootless podman, docker-credential-gcloud, and snaps
by Ioan Rogers
Hi,
I'm on Ubuntu, and I've recently encountered an issue when trying to use rootless podman with the docker-credential-gcloud helper installed via snap.
This works fine when using the official google-cloud-sdk apt packages, and it used to work with snap packages until last October.
Here's what I see now:
```
$ podman pull gcr.io/private/image
Trying to pull gcr.io/private/image...
2021/02/01 13:19:17.474248 cmd_run.go:994: WARNING: cannot create user data directory: cannot create "/root/snap/google-cloud-sdk/166": mkdir /root/snap: permission denied
cannot create user data directory: /root/snap/google-cloud-sdk/166: Permission denied
error getting credentials - err: exit status 1, out: ``
Error: unable to pull gcr.io/private/image: Error initializing source docker://gcr.io/private/image:latest: error getting username and password: error getting credentials - err: exit status 1, out: ``
```
So it looks like the credential helper is being executed as root now. I'm not sure in which component the problem lies, or where I should file an issue.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Thanks

CIFS share as a volume
by rem＠llgc.org.uk
Hi,
I have a problem mapping a cifs network share to a container.
It's an auto-mount and from the /etc/auto.mnt I can see it's mounted with: -fstype=cifs,rw,noperm,vers=3.0
The mount is attached to the /mnt/share-name
I run image of the container with:
sudo podman run --pod pod-name --detach --name container-name -v /mnt/share-name:/usr/src/app/share:rw,z .........
I get:
Error: failed to set file label on /mnt/share-name: operation not supported
Wonder if anybody could help me and point me to the right direction.
Thanks

no logs from container
by lejeczek
Hi guys
I'm trying a popular image, perhaps very popular(not sure if
with podman consumers though) off which a rootful container
produces no logs.
I've tried podman vers 2.0 & 3.1, with the same results.
Adding debug to:
-> $ podman container restart cni-net.disc --log-level=debug
...

I can:

and shell is availble.
How to troubleshoot issues like this?

overlayfs driver VS images - overlayfs: unrecognized
by lejeczek
Hi guys.
First thing which came to mind was to try driver newer
version of the driver or newer kernel all together - when I
got this upon container creation:
....
overlayfs: unrecognized mount option "volatile" or missing value
overlayfs: unrecognized mount option "volatile" or missing value
....
But before I do that - would there be a way to tamper with
the image perhaps and/or other bits involved in order to get
get rid of the problem?
many thanks, L.

Re: Need help in creating a rootless container in podman
by Scott McCarty
I've never seen this error. Is this a default install of RHEL 8.3? Try
adding a new user to the system and running the podman with that new user.

Tuesday May 4 Podman Community Meeting Topics
by Tom Sweeney
Hi All,
Just a quick ping asking for any topics for the the May 4th Podman
Community Meeting at 11:00 a.m. Eastern (UTC-4). If you've something
container related that you'd like to talk about, or have particular
functions in Podman, Buildah or Skopeo that you'd like to see a
discussion on, please let me know.
At the moment, I've about 20 to 30 minutes of time remaining in the
meeting and hope to get an agenda out for the Tuesday May 4th meeting
sometime later next week. So if you've a thought, please send me an
email. Bonus points if you can work in a Star Wars reference!
Thanks!
