RunRoot & mistaken IDs
by lejeczek 03 Jul '25

03 Jul '25

Hi guys. I experience this: -> $ podman images WARN[0000] RunRoot is pointing to a path (/run/user/1007/containers) which is not writable. Most likely podman will fail. Error: creating events dirs: mkdir /run/user/1007: permission denied -> $ id uid=2001(podmania) gid=2001(podmania) groups=2001(podmania) context=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 I think it might have something to do with the fact that I changed UID for the user, but why would this be? How troubleshoot & fix it, ideally without system reboot? many thanks, L.

shouldn't the current directory be the default context for "podman build"?
by Robert P. J. Day 12 Dec '24

12 Dec '24

"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? rday

mqueue msg_max in rootless container
by Michael Ivanov 27 Nov '23

27 Nov '23

Hallo! I'm trying to run my application in podman rootless container and I stumble on following problem: my program needs /proc/sys/fs/mqueue/msg_max to be at least 256, but in running container this value is just 10. When I try to specify this parameter while running the image (--sysctl 'fs.mqueue.msg_max=256') I get the following error: Error: open /proc/sys/fs/mqueue/msg_max: Permission denied: OCI permission denied and container is not created. My host where container is being run has this parameter set to 256. How can I expose current host setting for msg_max to my container? Best regards, -- \ / | | (OvO) | Михаил Иванов | (^^^) | | \^/ | E-mail: ivans(a)isle.spb.ru | ^ ^ | |

container fails to start due to host's iface - ?
by lejeczek 27 Apr '23

27 Apr '23

Hi guys. I have a pretty vanilla setup and just one single container which fails to start @boot complaining about being unable to connect to one host's IP. Container's 'regular' unit: ... Wants=network-online.target After=network-online.target RequiresMountsFor=/run/user/2002/containers ... Restart=on-failure I think that this @boot failure - for very first user-manual restart works - is due to the fact that service/daemon to which container needs to connect, is not started soon enough & that service runs on the host. I expected 'Restart=on-failure' to take care of such circumstances but, apparently it does not, unless something else is in play here. Would you have any suggestion - all are very welcomed. many thanks, L.

Podman socket in macOS?
by jklaiho＠iki.fi 19 Apr '23

19 Apr '23

Documentation about this seems thin on the ground or outdated, or at least I'm not able to find or properly decipher the correct docs. I've got a macOS Ventura build machine that I use with GitLab CI, having installed GitLab Runner and Docker on it. I'd be interested in trying it out with Podman instead. It's probable that it won't work, given that the documentation at https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/executors/docker.html#use-podman-to-run-dock… only mentions Linux. However, the way the Docker Executor is configured to use Podman in config.toml makes it look like it just might work, if I pointed it to the Podman socket. But that's where I'm stuck. Assuming that GitLab Runner supports ssh:// socket addresses, what do I put in the 'host' row of config.toml, exactly? Or can I somehow forward the SSH socket from the Podman machine (creted using Podman Desktop) onto the host machine so that I can access it as a unix:// address? If possible, I'd like to operate Podman rootlessly for this purpose, but can go rootful if it's necessary. Thanks in advance!

docker-compose does not start on Windows

Hi, I recently upgraded my Podman Desktop to the latest v0.14.0 hoping it will work with Docker Compose.
